We loved the house. Location was great close to everything. Very clean right on the water easy access to us to park our personal boat to use while we were there. Would recommend to anyone

We were in town for a wedding. Our host was so quick at responding to my questions. The property was just as described. It rained most of the weekend but even that was relaxing! We enjoyed the view, sitting on the back porch drinking coffee! Cornhole came in handy and we had one venture out a couple of times in the Kayaks. Plenty of sleeping and beds were very comfortable!
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Mar 2025
We had a great time at Baileys. It was perfect for our needs. Plenty of room for us. Pet friendly. It’s on a nice quiet bayou. We wanted a place that we could leave our boat in the water behind the house. Even though it’s very shallow we were able to get in and out with our bay boat. If I had to come up with a negative it was the amount of traffic in front of the home. Renda was great to work with. Would book again.
