About this house rental
Discover a secluded southern oasis, where mature cypress trees embrace a tranquil lake. Watch sunsets paint the sky as you unwind fireside with your preferred beverage. Relish the symphony of songbirds crickets and frogs, while elegant roseate spoonbills take flight over your private lake. Experience Louisiana's rich wildlife and natural beauty.

The space
**Unlimited Fiberoptic Internet services provided***
Start your mornings with a freshly brewed coffee or indulgent espresso, savored on the tranquil covered porch. Witness nature awaken as wildlife stirs on dew-kissed grounds. Your haven offers endless serenity – feel free to linger as long as you desire.
For the adventurous spirit, capture the magic of nesting season (March to June) with your camera – from vibrant bird hatchings to the striking turquoise eggs of the greater Ibis. Delight in the enchanting sight of newborn alligators in their natural habitats.
Experience the breathtaking transition of cypress and walnut trees, adorned in autumnal hues from October to January. Keep your eyes peeled for deer roaming in their element, even as you engage in outdoor games like horseshoes and cornhole. This haven truly comes alive with extended stays, creating timeless memories to share with loved ones.
Seize the opportunity to partake in offsite activities, like crawfishing tours (December to June), followed by a traditional Cajun crawfish boil back at the property. Immerse yourself in local festivals, mere minutes away, that grace each season. If your heart seeks southern hospitality and charm, your search ends here. We're excited to help you craft an unforgettable getaway – a true slice of Southern paradise.

Your place was amazing. The house was beautifully decorated and enough room. Gorgeous view and very peaceful.

Very accommodating visit to Rayne, LA. Hosts were friendly and communicated well about the house. Wading bird rooking in the backyard was a bonus. Seemed like thousands of wading bird species dropped in each night. Would recommend to other folks in Rayne area and we may return again for another trip.

For nature lovers, there’s no place like this house on a small lake. Roseate spoonbills and white ibises roost in the cypress trees at night. Baby gators basked on the bank, throwing themselves in the water when they saw us. A quick check with Merlin Bird app listed the uncommon white eyed vireo as a bird singing from the surrounding forest.
Indoors, a kitchen large enough for two cooks to work side by side was perfect.
The towels were huge and fluffy. There was plenty of room to spread out and get comfortable, chatting to the wee hours. Can’t wait to return!
