Sportsmans Retreat in Paradise! Bayou Bungalow near New Orleans Sleeps 10

Whether you want to visit the famous French Quarter, walk the beach on the gulf coast or fish, hunt and crab to your hearts delight; this is what you've been searching for! Located in Pirates Harbor in the Rigolets off Lake Pontchartrain and Lake Borgne, we are only a 30 minute drive to visit Bourbon St or the beaches and casinos of Mississippi. From the large front deck you will enjoy the scenic views of Big Branch National Wildlife Refuge while you watch the sunrise over the marsh. The evening will present you with breathtaking sunsets from the rear deck. Launch your boat at the Rigolets Marina which is about 2 miles down the road. Dock your boat at our dock or fish and crab right from the dock. Camp Reel Estate sits on a scenic bayou that is a short 15 minute boat ride out to Lake Pontchartrain. The camp is a fully furnished 2 bedroom and 2 bath home with a large upper loft - the home sleeps a total of 10 people in beds. Our waterfront home has all the amenities of your home plus some things you might need while you enjoy your stay in our little piece of paradise. We provide a burner, boiling pot, propane grill, crab traps, fishing poles, pedal boat, kayak, plus all you will need in the kitchen to cook that pot of gumbo or fry up those fish you catch! Fish at night off of the dock lights or just relax in the bayou breeze. Of course there are also some great nearby restaurants for you to dine if the fish don't cooperate :).
Be sure to visit Olde Towne Slidell along with the quaint shops and restaurants. Check out their event calendar for their annual festivals which are sure to please. Fremaux Center is a great shopping and dining area and is only about 4 miles away. There are 4 grocery stores nearby also so don't worry if you forget to bring something!
Most importantly you will enjoy the serenity of the bayou breeze and the sound of the fish jumping, birds chirping and yeah you may see a gator or two in the wildlife reserve across the highway. We have TV and free internet but chances are those will be the last thing on your mind. There's also a tower speaker so bring your music to plug in.
We want to share our dream and little piece of paradise with you. We look forward to having you as our guests.

Spring break
We thoroughly enjoyed this home. Our son’s high school baseball team had a tournament in the Mandeville and Hanhville area for Spring break. The owners were very accommodating and communicative to all our questions and inquiry. location was very convenient for us. This place was all that we could ask for for our vacation.

Great house on the water
Well here I go again. I’ve stayed at this house my last 4 fishing trips to the south with friends and it never disappoints me. Siobhan, the owner is the best host you could ask for and the house is always in perfect condition. Great views on front and back. You will not go wrong staying there for any reason. I will be back for sure. Thanks Siobhan.

Great times
This is a great place to stay while we are down south fishing. Just can’t say enough about Siobhan the host. She is SO great to work with and she just keeps the place so clean and up to date. Back and front porches are the bomb. Morning views and sunsets are the best. I will never stay anywhere else for by southern trips. Thanks so mush Siobhan.
