It was an absolute delight to stay at this home.
Everything was clean and organized. The location was very convenient to the freeways and grocery stores.
The host John was very nice and readily available to answer any questions.
Beautiful house with unbeatable location. Bigger in person with plenty of places to sleep and bathrooms to accommodate a big party

Family Time
Spent 3 nights for a family get together. Perfect location to attend our Grandsons baseball games at Mcneese. Beautiful home!Would definitely recommend.
If you are contemplating staying here at all... do it!
you will not be disappointed. Beautiful, perfectly equipped, comfortable and feels very much like a home away from home. Highly recommend this place. Communication
with John, our host was wonderful and accommodating.
would stay here again!
Such a beautiful house! Huge open floor plan and beautiful backyard! Me and my bridal Party stayed here the night before my wedding and used it to get ready for our big day! John, the host was absolutely phenomenal. Communicated very well and helped us out in anyway we needed! Overall, such a great stay and absolutely outstanding house!
Property was perfect for our group of college friends that get together every January for golf, good food, and misremembering the good old days. House was setup around a great room, with a nice sized kitchen. Extremely clean, and very accommodating for all of us. The location was close to golf, restaurants, and the casinos. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone with a group of friends, or family, that are in Lake Charles for the food, culture, or entertainment. Host was great, and very easy to get in touch with.

Absolutely Gorgeous ⚜️
I booked this beauty for my vacation with my family. I fell in love with the outside view. The entire house is absolutely stunning. The rooms are so spacious and comfortable. Everything that you need is in driving distance. I would recommend this beautiful place to anyone in the area. I would definitely rebook if I’m visiting the area again. 😇
This was the perfect location for guests coming in from Houston for the weekend for a Mardi Gras ball. Home was as described, clean and the property manager very accomodating.
