Always a great stay

I’ve stayed here before and would definitely do it again. The cottage’s decor has a zen feel and is a comfortable size. It’s a very private and safe place in great location. Finally met Doug and Elise the hosts and they were so nice. Always made sure I had everything I needed.

Awesome Location & Super Clean

This beautiful cottage is in a great location and was super clean! We were attending a festival in downtown Houma and it was very close and in a great neighborhood. The location offers quick access to all the great restaurants the area offers. The owners were great to rent from and were very friendly and hospitable. Would highly recommend this rental and would certainly stay again in we want to visit the area again.

I am currently working on a degree in interior design and I make and sell various types of jewelry. I love gardening, cooking , I enjoy traveling and spending time with family and friends.

We love our home and we'd love to have you as a guest!

Why they chose this property

We bought this home because we fell in love with the front of the house and the backyard. It is very peaceful and private. Bird watching is a must! The sound of the waterfall in the pool can soothe one's soul and help to relax and unwind.
