Great kitchen!

House has a great layout, and it was clean. Would have liked to have showers in both bathrooms. Would have enjoyed the outside area more if it were more like the pictures. Kitchen was great With nice appliances.

Perfect Fishing Getaway

A buddy and I were in town for a Bassmasster kayak tournament on Caddo. The property was perfect. Clean and modern. Good parking for the truck and trailer. Outside outlets to charge batteries. And in a great area that we never felt uncomfortable leaving the trailer behind while we went to town to grab food. Would definitely stay here again!!

Nice quiet private getaway

We really enjoyed the property - quiet and scenic. Unfortunately Shreveport lacked things to do for us. We found some good places to eat and enjoyed the time with friends. Recommend doing research on things to do to ensure they are really open when you plan to visit them.

Perfect for me!

Very cozy, comfy bed, puppy friendly and excellent AC during this hot summer. Staying here made my daughter’s graduation and white coat ceremony so enjoyable. We were five hours from home; so this was our home away from home.

Unfortunately, this was only a one night stop for us. The house and lake were beautiful. Communication with the owner/host was good. We would definitely choose this again.

Nice place, felt safe - recommend!

This is a cute little cottage, situated in a private area behind a security gate. I spent quite a bit of time there alone and felt safe, which was important to me. My only complaint is that the house was not clean. I picked up several hairballs and washed all the towels, dishes and pots and pans before I used any of them because they did not feel clean to me. The house smelled strongly of bleach and cleaning products when I arrived, the cleaning service had been there, they just didn't wash the dishes, dust or clean the floors. I brought my own sheets and changed the beds when I got there. I'm glad I did.....considering. Lots of food was left in cabinets and refrigerators by previous guests. Lots of spices and condiments in the kitchen. Although I brought my own, that is a nice touch for those who don't. The area is quiet and lovely to watch the "bayou life". The owner called me a few days after I arrived home and profusely apologized for the lack of cleanliness in the home. She was away before I arrived and had not seen the condition of the house from previous long-term guests. She was very gracious, voluntarily gave me a rebate of some of the fees. Mosts hosts would not have volunteered. She gets big bonus points from me for that!Overall, I would recommend this home to anyone who needs a cozy, quiet, safe place to stay while you're in Shreveport. It's away from city for a country feel, but close enough to be convenient to stores and restaurants.

Juanita's place looks exactly like the pictures! You were getting exactly what you're looking at online! We had our wedding day there and it couldn't have turned out more beautiful! Juanita went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect! I can't thank her enough! You will really enjoy your stay here!

VERY HELPFUL HOSTS

My wife is from Shreveport and her parents still live here. We got the call from my father-in-law that it was time to come say goodbye to my wife’s mom who had been on hospice with stage 4 cancer. She passed away while we were staying at this VRBO. The hosts were extremely considerate of our situation and showed great compassion in helping us navigate a few things during our stay. Thank you, Leon & Juanita! 🙏

False advertisement

The property lawn is overgrown, it looks abandoned. Rotten trash left by the entry door and at the entry gate. The entry gate hangs askew. No communication from the property manager before arrival. I asked for an earlier check-in and was told I would be contacted once the housekeeping was done, this didn't happen. When I arrived, I was told the house was clean but not stocked. I said, "No problem ". The bedding had a chemical or perfume smell that gave me a headache. The patio area was useless, it had a wheelbarrow with old debris in it sitting amongst a pile of pillows, chairs, trash. The eves of the home are infested with wasps that were swooping in at you as you step outdoors. Not a relaxing or inviting setting, nor would I want to take a relaxing walk on the property. I had to leave, I was very uncomfortable.

Beautiful, quite and relaxing

The house was emasculate! And in a beautiful spot on the lake! I love the serenity of the location and just the right amount of secludedness. I wished there had been more kitchen items to use to cook, so I didn’t get to do my normal vacation meals; had to eat out everyday! That was a negative for me. But my overall stay was great! I would recommend this property to my family and friends.

Relaxing Holiday

We arrived to a sparkling clean property, walked on the pier, sat in rockers under pergola sipping a glass of wine. It was completely relaxing and quite. The next day we took a boat tour and enjoyed to beauty of Cross Lake and spent another quite evening playing cards. The beds were very comfortable. Fortunately we didn't need this - but the entire house is handicap accessible. I personally enjoyed the evening sounds of crickets and frogs from the lake. Host were very friendly and quick to answer any text messages
