Fantastic. If there were a word better, I'll use it. The experience was phenomenal.n Beautiful and very clean home!

  The Windward house was perfect! The description of the home prior to booking is accurate, and Lisa was very thorough with expectations and recommendations. We had a total of 8... read more guests during our stay and we couldn’t have asked for a better retreat. The home was spotless, the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our meals at home, no one ever ran out of hot water, and we especially liked the heaters in the bathrooms. The pool and deck area are gorgeous, and so tranquil just to sit out there and enjoy some time outside (unfortunately it was a little chilly during our stay, so we opted not to use the pool, but we so wanted to!). There was plenty of room, inside and out, to spend lots of time together, but also plenty of opportunity to have our own space and downtime apart from the rest of the group. We loved the location of this home too, because we had easy access to New Orleans/French Quarter, Airport, but also Slidell, the local swamps/lakes/bayous, as well as Mississippi and its beautiful white sandy beaches.
As far as other reviews had mentioned: we had zero issues with any neighbors (or signs), and the driveway was no issue for a full-size SUV nor a sedan.
I would highly recommend this home away from home, and would love to visit again someday!

  beautiful place

  Everything we expected, stylish, great location, great options close in slidell to Mississippi to New Orleans, great time had by all.

  This is a great property! It was large enough for our group of 12 and no one felt cramped. Everyone was able to move about the home with freedom and... read more enjoy different sections of the property in peace. Access to a deck and water with fishing was a bonus. It was another great opportunity to spend time with those you're traveling with. Even if you don't fish, sitting outside was relaxing and the neighborhood is quiet. Communication with the property point of contact was quick and easy. All of our inquiries were addressed. I definitely recommend this property.

  Very nice place and it was a well needed retreat while we were working after Hurricane Ida.

There are bugs but host said it was the south. Maybe so.
Ok place to stay. Family had a good time.

A great visit and appreciate it very much.

  Beautiful home and great outdoor space. Home was clean, check in was easy, I have no complaints.

  Good Place and View

  Heads up!!! You definitely won’t be disappointed everything is very accurate! And it definitely felt like home away from home! Enjoy!

  Lisa's home is beautiful. She is a great host and everything is as described. My whole family had a great time and worked perfect for all 14 of us.

  This house was everything and better than described. The house was clean and comfortable, easy to find and access was convenient. The pool and waterfront was a nice bonus.... read more Lisa’s communications were prompt and informative. We paid a premium for the house over the Thanksgiving holiday probably better value other times of the year. Overall great house for our family. Thank you Lisa for making it so easy.

  I love to cook my only issue was the pots and pans that the home provided and mine were not compatible.

  Lisa's place is a lovely home on a waterway that leads to Lake Ponchatrain. The neighborhood is very quiet and the view of the sunset from the dock was gorgeous.... read more I stayed there for a long weekend with my parents and my four brothers. We each had a room and everyon had plenty of space. We especially enjoyed sitting outside on the deck in the mornings and evenings.

  Great stay!

  This place is beautiful! Can’t beat the pool on hot southern days! You can sun on the pool all day while still having plenty of shade on the beautiful deck!... read more Family friendly! Actually, perfect for a family with any age kids. Super easy check-in/out. Lisa was just fantastic! Didn’t need to reach out to her often but the few times I did she responded quickly and was so friendly! There were 9 of us and it was perfect for adults and kids alike! Can’t wait to go back!! Thanks Lisa!

  Great place to relax and very clean.

  The house was great and lisa is very nice

  The house is beautiful and very clean. Beds were very comfortable. Curtains are not blackout, so the rooms got very bright at sunrise but that didn’t keep us from sleeping... read more in.
We enjoyed the back deck and dock. It was very peaceful. Highlight of the house.
We didn’t use the pool.
The only bathroom with counter space is in the master & the showerhead in the other downstairs bathroom faces the shower door, so our parents had issues with turning on the shower without getting sprayed.
Other than that minor issue, we had zero problems and enjoyed the house.
We did believe it to be a tad overpriced.

  Wonderful home both indoors and outdoors. On the water with a beautiful deck. Easy to get into New Orleans, also. Wonderful host—had a lot of good suggestions for good restaurants... read more etc. Easy communication. It was a perfect fit for our family get together.

  We had such a great time here. A great location and Lisa is always very quick to respond and help us out with anything. Would 100% come back.

  Nice place to stay, calm and quiet, responsible host, recommended.

  Mostly roses and maybe a couple thorns. Overall it was a lovely stay and property, and we would totally book again. This is really a 4.5 rating and can... read more easily be a 5 for other guests if host decides to address the thorns.

Roses:
1. Loved the laminated checkout guidelines that were easy to find and follow.
2. Loved the decor.
3. Loved the patio design and generous outdoor seating.
4. Good entertainment options and apps on the smart TVs.
5. Overall great location. Excellent access to highway.
6. Appreciate that there were multiple games for guests to choose from.
7. Well equipped kitchen for guests who are serious about cooking dishes like gumbo.
8. Loved the laundry and that there was a mop sink.
9. Not many fish in the waterway, but having a fishing pole was a nice touch (smile :)
10. Would absolutely book again in the future, and recommend it to family and friends.

***
Thorns:
1. Light in upstairs bedroom closet.
2. Garbage disposal is essential and needed in kitchen where there will be lots of cooking
3. Toilet paper holder in upstairs bathroom was loose.
4. Reverse one of the bunk beds such that the ladders do not face each other. The current configuration forces use of only one ladder at a time which makes it tough for guests when that room is fully occupied.

  Lisa was very helpful and the place was clean and tidy. Would definitely recommend this place.

  Spacious and clean. My Tahoe bottomed out driving into the steep driveway. Neighbors had offensive and rude signage displayed about the rental property, however the neighbors were friendly when encountered.

  The property is beautiful. Great for sunsets and quiet nights.

  Great communication with the host from booking to check-out.

House location is great- quiet neighborhood and truly beautiful views of the lake from the windows and especially from... read more the back deck, dock, and pool. Quick boat ride to the new Blue Crab and Phil’s Marina Cafe- two favorites in Slidell. Beds are comfortable with great, clean and soft bedding. Decor is lovely.

  Lisa is an excellent host and easy to work with. The house was great and we had an awesome time.

  Certainly! Here's a positive review for a lakefront Airbnb:

**"A perfect lakeside retreat!"**

We had the most relaxing and enjoyable time at this beautiful lakefront property.... read more The location was serene and peaceful, with stunning views of the lake right from the porch. The house was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed to feel right at home. Whether we were lounging by the water, kayaking, or just soaking in the breathtaking sunsets, every moment was pure bliss.

Lisa, I was incredibly accommodating and made sure we had everything we needed for a smooth stay. The outdoor area was perfect for relaxing and enjoying nature, and the nearby activities were a great bonus!

We would highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a tranquil escape. We can’t wait to return!

  House in optimal location to visit city of New Orleans but still able to enjoy water related amenities.

  Great place to stay with a large group. Only 20 minutes from NOLA, plus it was peaceful if you just wanted to hang out and relax for the day.
