Had a good time and everything was on point……Big thanks to the host for her support and hospitality!!!
10 / 10Outstanding·Nov 2024
I chose this waterfront property on short notice due to a concert we were attending in the area. The cabin is a short distance from most places you want go get to locally, which was a bonus. The waterfront views are nice with a large screen in porch and a bar and deck outside. The inside is nice and there are two rooms, one upstairs and one downstairs. You'll find that there is a dishwasher, utensils, everything you need to cook and stay comfortable while you are there. The bathrooms are also really nice and the big shower downstairs was definitely a bonus. We didn't stay in the cabin much as there was so much to do and see in the area. This place is great for a short stay, but I do wish we could have stayed a little longer. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a place to stay locally with a short drive to local businesses! The property owner was very good with communication and checked in during our stay, but we didn't need anything. Thank you!

We came to Shreveport for a wedding and had the pleasure of staying in this Lodge. The decor and style of the home makes you feel like you are staying in the mountains, while the porch and river scenery make you feel like you’re in the bayou. It was great stay! Complete with a full kitchen, 2 full baths, 2 queen beds and 3 cots, this was a great place for my group of 8 to stay. We would recommend this to anyone traveling to the Shreveport area!

The house was really nice with great views of the river! Jennifer was super nice and attentive with our needs as well as offering local recommendations for food and activities. Not to mention it’s a very short drive to everything you would need in Shreveport, yet feel really secluded away from people. Would definitely stay here again!
