Our stay was amazing! Great views, great location. The house itself was wonderful! It was cozy, had things to do, and fit our needs. I will remember this place for the future!
Perfect property our family. Plenty of inside and outside space. Stairs are steep, so we, the grandparents, slept in downstairs bedroom.

This stay was just what me and my sisters needed. A cabin stay. It garnered closeness, good laughs, and good food for us. Our daughters who are teens and young adults loved walking the land and doing cheerleading practices outside. Thank you for lending us you beautiful home for the weekend.
Should have left a review earlier for our stay in July! Lovely and interesting property. All amenities provided, comfortably housed 6 with full kitchen and then some, renters were responsive and addressed any questions we had! We enjoy the outdoors so loved having the extra space.I would not recommend if you prefer a more city-like experience, but that is not a fault of the property itself, had a great time, and plenty of local shops, grocery and other nearby.
Sunset Grove was the perfect spot for our family to meet up for a visit! The grounds are gorgeous and offer a great family experience. We had ages 5 yrs- 66 yrs and all had fun visiting, fishing, playing soccer and ping pong, and cooking on the BBQ.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sunset Grove! Cajun/Creole foods, Zydeco, charter fishing, shopping in Lafayette, crawfish, swamp tour. Although humble, the house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The acreage that the house sits on is awesome!
I like it was gated but didnt like that i always had to open and close the gate. The house was unique and spacious. The beds were comfortable and the property immaculate. Communication with mgmt was easy as was fhe instructions to connect to the wifi, enter and exit. I would definitely recommend staying here again.
The home was cozy and we had plenty of room. The location was great. The grounds were amazing and we played lots of ping pong on the terrace. Thank you.
This property is amazing! Beautiful home and beautiful grounds. We came in for a concert in Lafayette, and this was just 25 minutes away! Perfect for our group. Loved the screened in porch!

Lots of room
Great location property needs some improvements . Not a great place for individual with disabilities. Bad smell coming from the downstairs bathroom was worse after it rained.
We hosted my best friend's wedding here, and the property was perfect for the occasion! Lots of places to take wedding pictures and just enough space for an intimate ceremony. The bridal party stayed for 2 nights and had a so much fun they did not want to leave. My only complaint was that I wish the place had been a little cleaner. But at the end of the day it wasn’t bad enough to ruin our trip. Would definitely consider going back!
The property was so perfect for our weekend stay. The house sits on sprawling, beautiful, quiet grounds that were perfect for our kiddos and pup to run around. The kids loved the swing set and ping pong table. Adults were comfy around the fire pit in the adirondack chairs. If the weather hadn’t been so rainy, I don’t think we would have spent anytime inside. Luckily, inside is spacious and comfortable. The kitchen is equipped with everything we needed to cook a great lunch and enjoy time with family we don’t get to see as often as we’d like. The decor of the home is the perfect blend of traditional/homey and mid century modern. Although the stairs are steep, the owners had baby/dog gates pre-installed for easy set up throughout the home, which is great for little ones. Natasha was very quick to respond to any questions and eager to ensure that we had everything we needed. Thank you for making our booking process so easy and enjoyable. We’ll definitely be back!

Didn't Sleep at Property
The property was not clean. Dust, mildew, spider webs precipitated asthma attack in husband and daughter. The property manager was responsive and sent maintenance to check for mold. None was found but it was the combination of the dust, mildew in bathrooms, and spider webs in the kitchen that likely triggered the respiratory issues. There was also live and dead roaches in the bedrooms, that the property manager said was part of the "wildlife" experience advertised in the listing. For my families' safety, we rented a hotel for the entire stay and did not sleep or stay at the property. Of course, we lost the entire fee for the 3-night rental. AND, we had to pay for hotels for the entire family. The grounds were beautiful but it was the most expensive holiday vacation our family ever had.
Loved this property. Amazing grounds, plenty of space and activities for our family. We were in town from Houston for my dad’s funeral. The space provided a necessary solitude when needed. This is a gem in Opelousas. This property provided necessities my family needed during this difficult time. Thank you.
This is a beautiful property. The trees and land it sits on is so peaceful. There is a perfect sitting area to relax and hang outside. Rooms were perfect for my family. 3 bedrooms upstairs and a little sitting area. 1 bedroom downstairs with a nice living room, dining area and kitchen. Stairs are steep but loved they had baby gates at the top and bottom to keep my toddler from going up and down. There is also a “kid play room” is what we called it attached to the carport. The property manager was great to deal with. She responded quickly to any questions or issues we had. Outside fridge was nice to have too.
Plenty of space for everyone! Very comfortable and clean! The property managers were very quick to respond to messages. We would definitely stay again!
We needed a place to rest for the night on our road trip. This was an excellent place. The property is beautiful and peaceful, the house is unique. We fell asleep to the sound of frogs singing.
We got together for a small family reunion and had an awesome time. The property was clean and just like it was advertised. There was plenty of room for everybody.
