If you enjoy nature and want to experience the uniqueness of life on the bayou, this is the perfect vacation home. Located on seven acres this rustic home on a cypress swamp. It is a prime area for birding and wild life. You can fish from your back porch. The style of the house is reminiscent of the architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright, complete with a rainwater-fed pond underneath the deck that adjoins the two separate wings of the lower level. It is located on seven acres with natural foliage with a wooden pathway to the dock that is on Bayou Liberty. The front of the cedar home is covered in vines and faces the pool, the back of the home faces the bayou. Lake Pontchartrain is a short boat ride away where speckled trout is the desired catch of the day. Bring your boat and use the boat house, or use the flat boat to troll down the canal which leads to the bayou.
The home is located on two levels. The lower level is handicap accessible via a ramp . The lower level is divided into two wings by the walkway over the pond and stairs to the upper level. There is a Corinthian wind chime hanging from the stairs near a large fountain in the pond.

The south wing has one queen size bed, living room with a fireplace, large handicap accessible bathroom and fully furnished kitchen on the glass porch. This level has the quickest access to the pool. The pool is surrounded by hedges on one side and the home on the other. The water pool is shaded by an oak tree, and remains cool throughout the summer. Each level has a washer and dryer.
The spacious master bedroom on the upper level has a king size memory foam bed, walk in closet,and full sized bathroom. and private balcony overlooking the bayou.This bedroom also has a 42' HDTV with most of the movie channels.
The living room has three sofas (one a futon), a wood burning fireplace, a 61 inch HDTV, and a large balcony overlooking the bayou, perfect for sunsets, or coffee in the mornings. It is also a great place from which to birdwatch. Blue Herons, Egrets, Osprey, woodpeckers, eagles, and migratory ducks are just a few of the birds which have been sited here. On this level, all the windows face the bayou. Adjacent to the kitchen and living room is a formal dining room.

Wonderful vacation
We had a wonderful vacation. The pool was perfect and relaxing. We loved seeing the alligator and turtles. This rental was by far the best well stocked for everything that you would ever need. Our family of 8 had plenty of room for privacy. Also the upstairs kitchen and living room was very spacious for when we came back together for meals and family time. We would rent this house again if we ever get back to Louisiana. Thanks for a wonderful house and vacation.

Awesome property and even better property manager
The property was just as described. It was perfect for our large family and gave us plenty of room. The pool and pavilion are even larger than the add describes. The views of the bayou were everything we had hoped for. The management was fantastic and I could tell she really wanted to make sure we enjoyed ourselves. This is a very well managed property.
Wondeful place
We had a great time here for a week. Well situated for regular visits to New Orleans. Well stocked house. Very comfortable. The pool was great. We were 8 and had plenty of space. Great for nature lovers too!
