Relaxing and good location!

We stayed here for Nationals Bowling and it was literally across the street. In our downtime, we were close to everything we needed and the house was very relaxing with comfortable beds. We loved it!

Baton Rouge USBC Bowl

A quaint, well appointed place. Beautiful turn-of-the-century architecture with lovely high ceilings and tall windows. Very clean and comfortable. I rested in comfort as my hubby wrestled with the lane conditions at the bowl - directly across the street from the cottage

Cute cottage, great location!

Our group of 7 had a fabulous time at this cottage! We were in town for an LSU football game and volleyball match. The cottage is only 2 miles(ish)from campus so it was easy to get back and forth. The house was spotless and the beds were comfy! The extra touches were so welcome! 5 guests showered back to back with plenty of hot water and water pressure. The hosts were so attentive and answered any questions immediately. Highly recommend this property! easy to get back and forth

Great were it not for the weather

The unit was spacious and clean. There were 8 of us which meant we had to share the 3 beds & 1 fold out couch. We decided to check out early because the heat was too much for the AC to keep up, but had the weather been better we would've stayed there with no issue. The host was kind and understanding of our situation.

In the middle of everything.

My friends and I were attending a conference at the Cane’s River Center. The house was only a block away. Super convenient. 5 stars all the way.

Great Experience

Our party consisted of myself, my husband, my adult stepdaughter, and my sister-in-law. All four of us were in town bowling in the USBC Open Championship tournament at Cane’s River Center. The house was clearly older, but very tastefully decorated and could not have been more conveniently located about a 5-minute walk from the venue. Check in and check out were a breeze and communication with the host was awesome. We were provided some great recommendations for food and she was extremely accommodating and responsive. We loved the front porch swing and enjoyed our morning coffee out there. Not a gripe about the property itself at all but a few things to keep in mind: Our first night was a Saturday and the neighborhood was quite noisy though that’s to be expected given the proximity to the downtown area. The house is next door to a gas station so some of the noise was due to the proximity. The noise died down by 12-1am though so not a dealbreaker for us. There is only one shower along with a second half bath with toilet only….so we had to carefully plan who would shower when, especially since we were working with early morning schedules…but again, no big deal for us. Also, there isn’t much counter space for toiletries so we had to get creative and/or tote our stuff in and out of the bathroom each time…still not a huge issue. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and highly recommend this property to other tourney bowlers and anyone else looking for a great experience!

Great Location, charming home

Great downtown location. All beds were very comfortable. Kitchen is small but very functional and what you would expect for a historic home. Walking distance to casino and other sites. Easy access to LSU campus via Highland Rd or Nicholson Dr. Plenty of parking. Hosts are very attentive and check in with you before and after your stay. Had one question while we were there and they texted back very promptly. We would definitely stay at this property again.

Amazing

We fell in love with this little cottage. We were in town for gymnastics competition so we were a 5 minute walk away from the raising canes center and museum's. The home itself was so clean and charming. The beds were amazing, so much so I needed to know the brand of mattress!! I loved sitting on the porch swing in the evening. Hopefully we continue to come to this gymnastics competition every year and I WILL be a returning customer. We loved our stay and the owner/host is amazing and so easy to work with. I honestly can not describe how comfortable we all felt
