Map & Owner's Profile
Fabulous Waterfront Condo, Boat Slips, Covered Parking, Wi-Fi
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Slidell
Why did we buy our condo "Marina Breeze"? We moved to Slidell on the Northshore in 2002, buying a unique waterfront property on Carr Dr. We lost that home in Hurricane Katrina (8/29/05), but had fallen in love with this delightful waterfront community, Slidell. Though we moved to Milton, FL after Hurricane katrina, our love for the Slidell area, the lake, the communities of Northshore Beach, the wonderful food, quaint Old Town Slidell, and scenic bayous led us to purchase a condo on the water in Slidell during the Summer of 2006. Obviously, we couldn't stay away very long! We are delighted to be able to share this wonderful condo with you, our guests.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
Scenic view from the condo's balcony;
First come, first served boat slips;
Easy commute to New Orleans by car;
Easy commute to Lake Pontchartrain by boat or car!
Navigable, waterway leading to Lake Pontchartrain right outside the condo;
Condo with stylish decor and the comforts of home;
Well-stocked kitchen;
Wi-fi, Free local and long distance calling in the continental U.S;
Cable TV with movie channels & so much more.....

Though we now call Milton, Florida our home, we travel back to Slidell and New Orleans often.

My family stayed here for a week to visit some nearby family. It was a great place for us to feel like we were on an actual vacation instead of JUST a family visit (does that sound terrible?) The location is great. It's very easy to get into the city, Slidell has everything you need, including good dining and it's also close to things like swamp tours. The place was equipped with everything we needed to cook our own meals and wash our clothes, and the furniture was comfortable and high quality! The only problem we encountered was that we have small children who like to wake up early, so we got a complaint from the downstairs neighbor about noise. It did not end up being a huge problem since we spent a lot of our days out and about, but it is something to consider. The other neighbors were very welcoming and friendly. We fully intend to stay here again when we visit our family nearby.
Recommended for:Adventure seekers, sightseeing, families with young children, age 55+, families with teenagers.
Lovely rental in Slidell/North Shore

Our stay in the waterfront condo was great. We were a little anxious about renting a condo online, but Val was very prompt in answering all our questions and very professional. The condo was very clean and comfortable. Quiet neighbors and a close commute to New Orleans. We can not wait to come and visit again!

Rarely does a condo match the glowing description in the ad but in this case it did. Great location, no problem parking our Navigator, clean and well appointed furnishings and lots of technical excellence. The hi speed wi-fi was great and much faster than I expected and the additional appliances made it easy to function. The most pleasant surprise was the TV. Not only was the big screen a pleasure to watch but there were movie channel readily available along with all my favorite stations. The big surprise was that there was an HD-DVR recorder that allowed me to program shows that I might have missed otherwise. We had two great meals at the nearby Phil's Marina Cafe and I highly recommend it to any seafood lover.
