Holiday rentals with lake access in Bayou Teche

I always enjoy my stay here, it is a go to spot for when I’m in town, which is often. The host are professional, and personal at the same time as well as communicative and receptive. You won’t make a mistake booking this Airbnb home.

Wife and I recently stayed here for 3 nights. This place was just what we were looking for after staying 5 nights in New Orleans. It’s a very peaceful location. You get the feel of how the rest of Louisiana is outside of New Orleans. It’s a rustic fishing cabin just like the pics show but the place is clean and had whatever we needed to cook our breakfast(we ate out for dinners). One day we did plantation tours from here and the next day we did the swamp tour(highly recommended). The swamp tour is hosted by Allen(owner) and well worth it. He had us catching catfish out of the lake and later fried it up for us and made us a complete dinner! The owners live across the road and are very accessible and are such nice people! My one complaint is that the decking around the cabin is in pretty rough shape but the pictures do show this. From the decking we saw bald eagles, gators in the water, a snake, and lots of fish jumping out of the water!

beautiful place well maintained and Loretta was so sweet

Our family enjoyed a wonderful stay at the Fat Cat. The water views are expansive. Lots of different seating areas to spread out both inside and out. The kayaks, life vests, and the floating pad were great to have, and the kids loved using them and floating in the water. We did not have much success fishing.. but that's how fishing goes. The beds were all very comfortable, the linens clean, and lots of pillow options.

The house was clean and beautiful. would definitely stay again

Very clean and Molly answered all my questions in a timely manner

Beautiful house on the lake! We enjoyed the views and how peaceful it was. If we are ever back in the area we will try to stay here again.

Beau was an amazing host and the property was beautiful and private. We told him what we were doing in town and had a care package tailored to our trip waiting for us!

I wish I could give 6 stars very nice place and host!

James really went above and beyond for us, as we were scheduled to fly out, the place booked was not available to us as the person staying there could not go back home to Florida due to the storms. This sent me into a spiral as we were coming in on Parents weekend along with 9,400+ others and I feared we had nowhere to stay or even finding a place to stay. James went out of his way to get 2 of his non furnished studios furnished and ready in the mere hours of our traveling to make sure we had a place to stay once we arrived! He really went out of his way to make things happen and I could not be more appreciative of him. My daughter is a freshman and I would say we will be using James again in the future!

Thank you so much James for this super clean and quiet place to celebrate the holidays . This place was everything and more !

Great stay

The apartment was lovely! Just as described in listing. Everything was clean and neat! The apartment is also very quiet. The only negative is the neighborhood felt unsafe. We were hoping to be able to walk to LSU, but instead used Ubers. We were here for our son’s graduation, but if we ever come back to LSU, we would definitely stay there again!

This was a lovely home, very clean and host provided all the essentials for our stay. It was a bit different to find the unit so be sure to pay attention to the host’s directions. I had to call her back a few times because we got a bit lost. This was one of the most lovely and inviting places I have stayed at so far. It is very close to LSU if you are in town visiting students. The area is lovely!

Amazing host very nice and helpful along with a beautiful place

Our stay at this Airbnb was absolutely incredible! The courtyard was beautiful creating such a peaceful and inviting atmosphere. One of the highlights was the breathtaking bayou-side scenery—waking up to those serene views was truly unforgettable. The home itself was spotless, well-appointed, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The host was fantastic, offering great recommendations and ensuring we had a seamless experience. If you’re looking for a relaxing getaway with gorgeous surroundings, this is the perfect place. We can’t wait to come back! Thanks so much!!

Our family enjoyed our stay. Very spacious, relaxing , private and comfortable. Steve was very responsive to any messages.

Laura was very pleasant and responded quickly to all of my questions. She went to check out the rental before we arrived to make sure everything was in order. Enjoyed communicating with her.

Great place to stay for us and our big dog. Did a lot of walking and exploring, looking for wildlife. did a lot of birding - it was awesome. there's a marsh behind the house and a bayou across the road in front. saw some gators and beavers paddling around. we also visited the state park just down the road. nice boardwalk and of course more birding and beavers. Did not get to see black bears. Maybe next time. Had everything we needed. got to watch a storm roll in over the bay. Really enjoyed our stay. Will happily return and highly recommend.

John's place was super comfortable and cozy and within walking distance to LSU campus - which was the purpose of our trip. The house is in a very nice and quiet neighborhood and has all the amenities to make you feel at home. The sun room is also a perfect working space if needed. Kitchen has all the appliances you need, including coffee pods! Overall a very pleasant experience.

What a beautiful little getaway spot! We had family coming in from out of town and didn’t have enough room at our home to host everyone. Nicky provided the perfect lodgings for our out of state guests to experience a quaint trip to the country. Thanks again!

I absolutely loved our time here. It was so peaceful and relaxing. We loved swinging on the swing and watching the boats pass. We also loved watching the fish and turtles in the pond. I’d definitely book again! 😊

I would recommend it to everyone, but I might want to keep it a secret it is so charming. Little geckos and stripped skinks to greet you in the morning along with birdsong. The sounds and sights of waterbirds flying to roost at dusk. Yep, I'm coming back!

We were in Louisiana for the Angola Prison Rodeo & made a long weekend out of it. Rich’s place was beautiful, comfortable & relaxing. All of the amenities are provided & made us feel right at home. The bunk room was great for the kids & the spacious rooms provided plenty of room for all of our belongings. We really enjoyed the two-story boat dock. It even had lights and fans! It was a great place to stay!
