About this property

Private Lake House/A Fisherman's Paradise only 30 minutes to New Orleans

Lake St. Catherine is located between the Mississippi Gulf Coast Casino's and the Famous French Quarter. This property has it all. Enjoy the excitement of gambling on the Gulf Coast or the fun of Bourbon St. Thirty minutes to New Orleans and 45 minutes to Gulf Port Mississippi.
You get the sunrise in the morning on the back deck and the sunset in the evening from the front porch looking over Lake Ponchartrain. You will witness a sea of stars all night long while enjoying the deck or on the rear fishing pier over the lake. Did I mention the breeze?? This beautifully appointed house has everything you will need. It is an open floor plan with 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths.
Take advantage of the abundance of fishing and crabbing the lake has to offer. Or take a kayak ride. Bring your boat and launch 4 doors down at Island Marina and then tie up to our private dock.
Our house is equipped with an outdoor grill, propane, burners, pots and pans. Just bring the fish fry and oil. Fishing poles, crab traps and nets are on the property for your enjoyment.
If you don't feel like cooking your days catch, save it and you are just a short drive to downtown New Orleans or Olde Town Slidell. Both offer an array of choices to tickle your tastebuds.
There are local fishing guides to take you out for a day of fun and fishing if you do not have your own boat.
The serenity of the Lakehouse will have you returning home with a new sense of peace.

A Lovely Property

We so enjoyed our stay. We made a great choice to enjoy New Orleans from a distance. This property was a welcome getaway from the hustle and bustle of New Orleans. So peaceful. We loved it, especially the lake views with pelicans!

Valentines Getaway

While the property was beautiful and quiet, it was not all as it appeared on the listing. The outdoor kitchen area was very rundown and weathered. There were utensils that were dirty and corroded, the Keurig was not functional, and one of the railings on the back porch was rotted and unsafe. Other that that, the Property was very beautiful and cozy. The beds were comfortable and there was many amenities. We did enjoy our stay.property

such a find outside of New Orleans!

Thank you so much for your hospitality Patrica and Ryan!!! You home was the perfect place to relax and enjoy time away from the busy New Orlean streets. It is a bit outside of the city but we didn’t mind the drive in - a couple of days we drove back and forth twice! The home was perfect for two couples and we loved the porch in back with the lake view. Overall, we wont hesitate to reach out again if we are heading your way. One suggestion - a couple of night reflectors would help to mark the driveway entrance at night. Otherwise - perfect!!!!

Quiet Retreat to Visit NOLA

Really enjoyed our stay out in the quiet ‘fish camp’ (as my husband kept calling it) in Lake Catherine! Though nothing camp like about this lovely home. We had everything we could need as far as essentials go in the kitchen and bathrooms, plus plenty of extra blankets and pillows! Beds are very comfy. About a 30 minute drive into downtown NOLA, or 20 ish minutes to Slidell for shopping or food- very convenient. Patricia was very communicative and easy to get a hold of throughout our stay. We stayed during the week of the NOLA blizzard and got snowed in for two days- and still had a wonderful time! Highly recommend this lovely home.

Amazing views and great accomodations

Took my family to New Orleans for the first time and when we stumbled on the listing for this property it seemed almost too good to be real. The house is very accommodating for four adults, everything was clean, and the views are spectacular. Also very convenient to some great food in Slidell and other activities. Spacious parking, and again that view…. Loves our stay , highly tecommend

Nice Lake House

This lake house was perfect for our family w three adults, a teen and 3 younger kids. We booked a fishing trip with a nearby marina. The house has everything you would normally need during your stay. The owner replied to my questions right away. We were very satisfied and did not want to leave.

Lovely spot on the water

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this well appointed home. We loved relaxing on the deck. And fishing from the dock and trying out the crab pots was fantastic!! Easy to get into New Orleans each day and tranquil to return to. Thanks Patty for sharing your wonderful home with us. 😊

Best Waterfront Location in Lake Catherine

Excellent 3 bed/2 bath property with giant living room and back patio directly on Lake Catherine/Gulf of Mexico. You can look at Lake Ponchatrain from the front patio, and the Gulf from the back. The property is very well furnished, even with a half dozen or so fishing poles (and a live bait shop 2 doors down on Chef Menteur). The huge back patio is a big win for enjoying the waterfront views, while the large dock in the back of the property offers a fishing spot that can't be beat.

Sweet fishing vacay

We had a fantastic time! Such a great location for fishing. It was so much fun to watch the men in our family behave like little boys filled with excitement to fish! Patty and her husband were very hospitable, helpful, and accommodating. We felt very welcome. We hope to return soon.

Best vacation ever!

This was the best vacation me and my family have ever had. The house was amazing with the porch and the views. The porch is also enclosed so if you have a dog like we did you won't have to worry about them getting away. The host Patty was great and easy to talk to. They have everything at the house that you could possibly need, except food of course. She is a very thoughtful host. We loved going to the French Quarter to walk down Bourbon Street but getting to go back to the house where it was private and quiet was the perfect end to each day. I definitely plan on going back to New Orleans and hope that I'm able to stay at Patty's place again.

NOLA vacation

It was very impressive...after spending the day away to go and enjoy the beauty of NOLA, coming back to the Campton's was like coming back to your own home. Very relaxing and comfortable! They supplied everything you could possibly think of for the bedroom, bathroom, laundry room and kitchen right down to the spices! If you want to go and enoy the Jazzy part of NOLA, but want peace and quiet and a good night's rest, I highly recommend The Campton's! We are looking forward to Our next trip down here and will definitely be staying here!
