Our Windward property is a large 4 bedroom, 3 bath waterfront home with a pool. This bright and impressive home is located in Slidell, a suburb just 25 minutes from downtown New Orleans and the historic French Quarter. This home has 2 large bedrooms, two smaller bedrooms, plus three full baths. There’s also an outdoor pool adjacent to the dock and waterfront. The Windward was professionally renovated in 2019 and has been beautifully furnished and decorated with complimentary accents and stunning art throughout.
The large living room is equipped with a big screen TV, sleeper sofa and cozy fireplace. The kitchen is fully equipped with new appliances, including a double oven and large stove, plus all the accessories needed to whip up an impressive feast for your family and guests. The dining rooms seats up to 8, a great space for a family get togethers, game night and meals. The large deck is fully furnished with multiple large sofas and plush chairs, with extras on hand for additional guests. There’s a beautiful large oak tree that provides the perfect amount of shade to keep you cool while entertaining and relaxing. The deck is just 15 feet from the water, with an accessible eep water access 60 ft. dock. Bring your boat and kids to enjoy some memorial swimming, skiing, and fishing. You can fish right off the dock in the front yard or cruise over to Lake Pontchartrain via a 3 minute boat ride. You’re also just minutes away from some of the best fishing in the country – phenomenal salt water fishing in the Rigolets and access to fresh water fishing 20 minutes farther by boat.
You can have the best of both worlds when you stay at the Windward. Spend your days on the water, then hit the French Quarter via Uber, taxi or by car at night for great fun and entertainment like no where else.

Our experience was a bad one, partly because of the condition of the property, but mostly because of the disrespectful treatment we received from Lisa. In total, we experienced a... read more number of malfunctions that can happen and are not the host's fault, the problem was Lisa's response to the problems we encountered. At first there were several things missing and there was a malfunction with the air conditioner, the initial response was that we don't know how to search properly, after that there really isn't a problem, and even after she sent professionals (who didn't solve the problem) she still continued to say there were no problems. Only after three days and a lot of anger on our part did she produce solutions to the problems. It's a shame, the house is located in a very beautiful place, but I wouldn't recommend anyone to stay there.
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.
I love to cook my only issue was the pots and pans that the home provided and mine were not compatible.
the house was nice and spacious, quiet neighborhood with a gorgeous back porch over looking the water. just one downside was the leak that hasn't been taken care of next... read more to the front door. rain will come in and soak anything left on the floor nearby. overall a great place though

Nice place but parking in the driveway was a pain. The driveway is super steep and I scraped the bottom and sides of my car every time I had... read more to park it.
Also, only 2 full bathrooms. If you stay downstairs you will have to go upstairs to use the shower or use the one in the other bedroom downstairs.

One thing to note, the driveway is... read more very steep. While there is level parking for 2 minivans. You will scrape both the front and back getting in and out.
