The house was in a great location if you are looking for day trips into the city and outside excursions. Great for families with kids. House is a bit dated…but clean and has everything needed.
What a wonderful house it was beautiful and had plenty of space for us all. Perfect for a large family. We had beautiful weather and loved sitting out on the patio. The drive way is steep so if you are in a sedan the bottom will scrape but the SUV was fine.
The house was perfect! Plenty of space for a big group. The house was stocked with everything we needed. We had a full schedule while we were there, wish we had more time to spend at the house!
It was a really great house for our group of 8 to come back to after hitting the city. It was stocked with everything. We really enjoyed the deck. Big pretty home.
This property is quite lovely with a very relaxing outdoor setting. It's close to New Orleans so you can easily make a day trip to the city. There was a few things that needed to be cleaned, replaced or fixed on the property (a ceiling fan, coffee maker, dish towels...) but nothing that would stop you from enjoying your stay (at least not for us.). Our only issues was a water main that broke and shut down the water for the neighborhood for a number of hours. We made due with getting gallons of water from the grocery store. The other issue was the sign on the neighbors property saying "VRBO renters not are not welcome" and another sign stating that the person that owes the property is in violation of court order and we could be evicted and him fined $500 a day. Not something you want to see while on vacation. We didn't have any problems with the neighbors but we were a quit group.
We had a great time making family & friends memories to cherish forever. Beautiful location, property and quiet neighborhood. This is our first time staying in Louisiana and I’m sure we will be back!! Excellent area for a family to stay when visiting New Orleans. Best Regards
This property was clean and quiet. The neighbor had some signs indicating his dislike of being next to a VRBO, but he didn't cause us any issues. It's within a 30 minute drive to the French quarter, so close enough to go daily without being in the hustle and bustle of NOLA. The view is fantastic. The driveway is quiet steep if you have a lower sitting car, so be conscious of the angle you pull in. We found the upstairs bathtub to be very slick. But overall I would definitely stay at this location again. It was competitively priced for the location and had enough room for us all.
My family simply enjoyed Ms.Howell’s home. The pictures are exactly as it is when you walk in . The check-is process is very convenient. The location of the house on the water is fantastic. Ms. Howell was very polite and professional. We would truly stay at this property if we were to have another family vacation. The home is amazing.
Thank you, again
Our entire family loved this house. It was conveniently located, close to the interstate. Being able to fit our large group on the back patio without feeling like we were on top of each other was a huge plus. A couple of things to be aware of, although this wouldn't discourage me from renting again, but more like side notes...The neighborhood makes it very clear that they don't want short term renters there. A big sign when you drive in as well as signs pointed directly at this house did not make us feel welcomed. The driveway is very steep, if you have a car you may have to park in the street to keep from bottoming out. Also, the manager of the property must manage many properties, because they had a difficult time answering specific questions about the property. Lastly, you must pay a deposit AND pay for insurance, which wasn't listed under the total price until after I started the rental process. Again, all just little things that I would have liked to have known beforehand, but still would have rented.
Location (if you don't want to be in the heart of the city) is perfect. Short ride to the NO city attractions and a short ride to the gulf beaches to the east. One neighbor definitely does not like the VRBO but he never bothered us. Off the water so watch it with little kids but the elevated deck (we had a 2 and 5 year old) made it easier to keep them away and watch them.
Really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property. It was perfect for our family. There is plenty of space to spread out, dishes and cookware provided, and the view in back is awesome. Although the neighbors sign "VRBO Renters not welcomed" was a little off putting at first, we still managed to enjoy ourselves.
House was just as described. Great location to NO and the north shore.

Lovely home, unfriendly neighborhood
The home and setting were perfect for our extended family. Unfortunately, the neighborhood is in a law suit with the owner and one neighbor is especially hostile. The advertised boat was not there. No discount was offered. We had plumbing problems which the property manager was quick to address.
Wonderful home, spacious and extremely clean. Very peaceful neighborhood. Had an issue with Pontoon boat rental, we think it was double booked. But the back deck made up for any inconvenience. Close to New Orleans, traveled there for Mardi Gras, about 45 minutes in traffic. Renters should know that the driveway is on a steep incline. We would stay again and recommend it to anyone looking at this area.
I loved the layout of the home. There are 2 bedrooms upstairs and 1 on the lower level. The community area is on the middle floor which is nice because anyone how hits the sack early is not disturbed by noise. I also loved having 3 bathroom and a private garage area. The decorating is unique and fun. And the beds and furniture are comfortable.
The property was clean and beautiful, it was kind of cold we didn't enjoy the deck as we should. although it was 30 minutes from the city we still enjoy our time. Great host and fast with communication.

Why they chose this property
Beau Chene is very comfortable and beautifully decorated with all new furnishings and finishes. Right on the water it is peacefully set in a waterfront community just a short drive (25 minutes) from the French Quarter and downtown New Orleans. Very conveniently located for shopping and dining with the family. Beau Chene is also centrally located to allow access to the Mississippi Gulf coast beaches and casino's. You will not find a more comfortable home with water front access, a deep water dock, large deck with comfortable plush seating and an amazing view of the bayou and wildlife. Fishing is right off the dock in front of the house. A five burner BBQ pit is available right on the deck. You can have it all with swimming. boating, kayaking, water skiing, tubing, barbecuing within a short drive to New Orleans. The home also has a large fireplace for cozy fires after a long day on the town. Very peaceful and quit at night for a restful night sleep. Great close dining options within a few minutes drive of the house. Kayak and pontoon boat rentals are also available locally and the rentals can be delivered to the dock.
What makes this property unique
Quiet peaceful beautiful water setting perfect for boating, relaxing, swimming and fishing just to name a few. Close to the city downtown (27 miles) but far enough away to have both a city experience and a peaceful waterfront vacation.
