About this property

Family Perfect Waterfront Home | Pet Friendly

When you think of Louisiana, I'm sure the first thought you have is of the hustle and bustle of The French Quarter, Mid-City, and Downtown New Orleans. But what if I told you there was SO MUCH MORE just a short distance from the metro? Experience this cozy and updated waterfront home with private dock for fishing and crabbing with boat parking (the boat launch is just a few minutes down the road), less than a 30 minute drive to the center of New Orleans.

Take in the waterfront view of Chef Menteur Pass from your second story view, complete with ample seating and porch swing. Once inside, you'll be greeted by warm natural light, high ceilings and hardwood floors. The open concept floor plan is the perfect setting for entertaining and gathering your friends and family. All the comforts of home are here, with special amenities including a flat screen TV in the living room and one additional guest room, reliable WiFi, kitchen with updated appliances, private dock, and covered boat parking.

Watch sunsets, fish and crab on an Island between the Chef and Rigolets, this vacation rental lets you truly experience everything the area has to offer! From on-the-water fun to city exploration, all of NOLA's hot spots are within easy reach. Spend the day deep in the French Quarter, just 30 miles south, or stick close to home for boating, crabbing, barbecuing, and old-fashioned relaxing.

The homeowner also offers add-on vacation packages you can purchase separately through them. Check out their offerings and reach out directly to them if you wish to purchase any of these. They will make all arrangements for you. Offerings and the contact information is on the flyer: bit.ly/4cIm8Yu

Friends Getaway

We have always wanted to visit New Orleans and now we have. And we stayed and enjoyed the fishing location very much. We crabbed and only caught catfish. But it was a fabulous time!A car is an absolute must!! It’s a ways from any populated areas. And there in lies the ambience of the location.

A Great Bayou Escape!

Enjoyed spending Christmas with our family at this unique and wonderful place. Location was far enough from civilization to feel remote but close enough to reach great restaurants and grocery stores when needed. The home was spacious and had everything we needed including nice extras like fishing rods, crab traps, huge banquet table, big comfortable L-couch, and lots of fridge and storage space. We spent a lot of time on the back deck watching the sun set over the water. Also enjoyed fishing off the dock right behind the house. Special thanks to the owner for sharing their wonderful home with us.The Erwin FamilyMadison, AL

Nice relaxing getaway

So this place is off a main highway but don't let that scare you. It's super peaceful. Communicating with the host was super easy. Fishing was awesome. Caught a couple small fish and plenty of blue crabs. Had a nice little boil with the guys. Crap traps were baited for us when we got here. Awesome weekend getaway.

I came to town to work and relax in the evening. You can’t get the views in a hotel room like this. Plus you can cook and not eat out all the time

Amazing Home

We have never had another home that was so well stocked, accommodating, clean and updated- all we actually needed was our clothes! The home is beautiful and roomy. Crabbing off the dock was plentiful, and all the supplies were there for the crab boil. The owner is very kind and helpful.

Awesome stay, wonderful property

Senior trip for our son, he wanted a fishing destination. Fishing off the dock was very good, catfish, reds and black drum. Also, crab traps were already baited and we enjoyed a fine dinner a few nights of fresh fish and crab. Several marinas nearby for bait and charters. The home was wonderful. Bottles of water provided, AC worked perfectly, beds were comfortable, communication with David were prompt and detailed. Everything was perfect. We hope to be back soon. Thanks David!

Just what we were looking for

Everywhere we travel and book vacation rentals, we love to stay on the water and this location was perfect. We were in town for a wedding which was near the French Quarter, but wanted to experience the areas outside of the hustle and bustle, being that we’ve been to New Orleans quite a few times. You can tell the area is going through a rebuilding phase but it is very peaceful out there. The house is plenty big for a larger group and is kid friendly but also suitable for couples, like us. We fished, caught some blue crabs, and even watched an alligator stroll by the dock. We were able to catch and clean right there under the house. Any cons I may have would be the cleanliness of the place. Seems like it was a rush cleanup job in between renters but we made due. But with that being said, I’d definitely rent this property out again.

Fishing with buddies

Booked this place for a weekend trip with some friends. It was awesome. The location was great. It was easy to get to from the interstate, plenty of trailer room, stores about 10 miles away and boat launch with live shrimp right down the road. The pier was nice as I was able to leave the boat in the water. Once in the water it was a short drive into lake Borgne or the other way to the bridges by I10. We had pretty good luck fishing. Caught an array of different species big and small. The covered deck up top and the lower area was nice for hanging later in the day on into the evening. Place was clean and well maintained. Everything about this trip was easy and like it was supposed to be. Oh yeah and the sunsets from the deck are amazing. Highly recommend.
