About this house rental
You will truly discover Le Joie de Vivre “The Joy of Life” in this beautiful cabin, located on Three Rivers Island, nestled between the Diversion Canal & the Petite Amite River. The moment you step onto the provided golf cart you’re truly on island time! Cross the bridge & head down the path to your waterfront oasis where you can start to immediately unwind while enjoying the view on any of the 3 decks or spacious boat dock. Reserve your spot today & be ready to “Laissez les bon temps rouler!”
The space
If you’ve been looking for the perfect peaceful retreat in Southeast Louisiana, you’ve found it! Close enough to both New Orleans and Baton Rouge to easily make a day trip, this property is the perfect way to explore Louisiana without staying in the big city. This is a unique, exclusive experience, as you can only access the island by golf cart or boat. Get away from it all, slow down, and detach all while enjoying the beautiful Cajun scenery of the bayou. Park your car, hop in your provided golf cart, and cross the 2 bridges over the bayou into a Cajun wonderland.
This beautiful 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath home sleeps 8, with 1 queen and 1 king bedroom plus a loft that can sleep 4 in 2 full-size beds. The loft is accessible via ladder only, so please use caution. There is indoor and outdoor dining, as well as a screened porch where you can enjoy the view when weather is less than ideal. You will also enjoy access to the community pool that is only a short walk away.
Extend your experience onto the private boat dock and unwind while you enjoy the outdoor kitchen, complete with grill and wine fridge, while sipping on a drink at the bar right on the water. There is even a crows nest where you can experience bayou life to its fullest while viewing boats and wildlife from the highest point on the island.
Bring your boats and jet skis too! You can park your boat in one of two boat slips on the property and park up to 2 jet skis right off the deck. Pick up some bait from the locally owned bait shop at the entrance of the island and find out why this area is known as the sportsman’s paradise. We do recommend that you have a LA fishing license. Life jackets are NOT provided, so please bring your own, use extreme caution while on the deck (especially with small children), and follow all boating and safety regulations. We are not responsible for any falls off the dock or bulkhead. Interested in boat rentals or a private boating tour of the area? We can help with that too!
If you want to venture out there are many wonderful restaurants and local attractions we will provide information for on and off the water.

We had the most wonderful stay at the River House on Three Rivers Island! This cabin is hands-down the best on the block — beautifully kept, perfectly cozy, and set right on the water with the most peaceful views. It truly felt like a home away from home.The owners were so kind and welcoming, making check-in easy and offering great local tips to make our trip even better. We spent our days relaxing by the water, enjoying the beautiful scenery, and making memories that we’ll be talking about for a long time.If you’re looking for a relaxing getaway on the Diversion Canal, this is the place. We will absolutely be returning and highly recommend this cabin to anyone considering a stay here!

Just know that you can only access it by golf carts. So you have to go to a parking lot, locate said golf carts, load all of your stuff onto them, thankfully both golf carts were working but they said the one that takes gas was half empty so use the battery powered one, which you have to plug in every night and the place you have to charge it is not an easy place to get into. I was told I would receive an email a couple days ahead of check in and never received it. We had to contact the host to get the code to unlock the golf cart lock boxes, I had to chat and call to get the code. They did respond soon after and got it worked out but as a super host you would think you would have that before you get there. When we got there, there was a cleaning lady there and she said she had no clue we were coming so we told her she didn’t need to finish cleaning so we could just get in out of the heat after waiting for the golf cart codes and then loading up said golf carts. There was no propane grill, we found a mini Weber, like the smallest camping Weber that we used to cook steaks. One of the couches are broken. Personally, I found it very uncomfortable because they have a neighbor that has been there for a while so it kinda feels like you are invading someone’s space because you are literally right next to them, Although, they were very nice. With that said, they were fully stocked on all of the little things you forget to bring and the beds were the best beds I’ve ever slept in.
