The Winward New Orleans area waterfront vacation rental property
The Winward New Orleans area waterfront vacation rental property
Our stay was okay, but there were several issues that made it less enjoyable. When we arrived, there was a strong smell similar to baby vomit, and we had to... read more go out and buy air freshener. The pull-out couch was very messy, full of crumbs, and we had to vacuum it ourselves before using it. For the price we paid, the furniture could have been more updated and better maintained. On our last day, a very large roach ran from the upstairs bedroom to the bathroom and then back under the bed, which made us uncomfortable sleeping. We appreciated the recommendations left around the house for restaurants and activities, but pool maintenance happened midday during our stay and should have been completed before we arrived. Overall, the location and community were great and made the trip better, but considering the cleanliness, upkeep, and overall condition of the home, the price we paid feels debatable and not fully worth it.
We enjoyed our stay here. The location was beautiful. the house was clean and roomy and had everything we needed.
Amazing property! Lisa’s was a wonderful host. This property had a great view. Much bigger than what we expected. Felt like a brand new home with lots of amenities. We... read more can’t wait to go back!
This place was amazing. We had a group of 11 young ladies and staff who were doing a mission trip to help with some of the churches with damage from... read more Hurricane Ida. We had lots of space and bathrooms for everyone. Lisa was a great host and got back to us quickly if we had any questions.
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.
Lisa’s house was wonderful and was perfect for what we needed. Very inviting, clean, and felt like home. Lots of space for when the kids and grandkids stopped in for... read more a visit. Lisa communicated well from the time we booked until we checked out.
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.
This place was awesome! 🤩 my family and I had a great time, the view was amazing, the house was very welcoming and well kept, and the neighborhood felt very... read more safe. There’s a Waffle House maybe 5 minutes away, bourbon street is a good 30-40min. I literally sat on the balcony and watched the birds catch fish. I would absolutely recommend 👍🏽
Cozy home on the water. Great for fishing and kayaking! Kitchen had everything we needed to cook full meals. Beds are very comfortable. Upstairs shower has amazing water pressure! Don’t... read more hesitate to book!
This place is great it's private. We felt secure there.

We had a good trip. Would recommend this home to all with large partys .
This was a nice, spacious stay. The waterfront deck was relaxing and beautiful, especially in the mornings. Decent food was nearby and the neighborhood was quiet. It was a nice... read more place for our group of friends for our getaway.
Lisa’s home was beautiful! It did not disappoint! The lake was peaceful and the home was nearly spotless! Lisa gets 5 stars from my family! We will definitely use this... read more rental again.
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.
Great communication and service. Any issues we had Lisa took no time in responding and getting her time out to assess it. I would recommend this location to anyone.
Nice renovated place with a nice deck! The two rooms upstairs were a little smaller than I thought. We enjoyed the deck when it wasn't too hot outside. There was... read more a kayak which was nice to use it in the canal!
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!
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!

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. Kitchen well stocked with cups, plates, etc.
Great space for families or group of friends. Highly Recommend!!
