About this property

Fishing, Swimming, Golfing, or Just Relaxing

Enjoy the peace and quiet of our spacious, lake front home, situated on a large spacious wooded lot on Lake D'Arbonne. Spend time, sipping coffee, watching the fish jump, listening to the birds sing, or admiring the awesome sunsets from the hot tub on our deck.

For the outdoor enthusiasts - there is a golf course minutes away and 2 major golf courses within a 30 miles.

For the fisherman - Darbonne Lake is a popular man made fish area. Record catches of bass, crappie, catfish make Lake D'Arbonne a fishing haven.

Wide open area nearby appeals to the water skiers and pleasure boater. The State Park close by may appeal to those wanting to hike or bike. Lake D'Arbonne is a sportsman's paradise while being close (within minutes) to shopping and all town amenities.

Our lake house has a spectacular waterfront view and is nicely furnished. The kitchen is fully equipped with stainless appliances. There is an outdoor hot tub for your enjoyment. * The hot tub will only be available in the cooler months, from October-April.*

GOLF, FISH, SWIM, PARTY OR JUST RELAX.....THE CHOICE IS YOURS!

THE HOT TUB IS NOT AVAILABLE , WE WILL UPDATE IT ONCE IT'S FIXED!

The road is up for repair thank God. Since my husband passed away, I haven’t been able to do repairs on the deck like I want to. But that’s coming soon.

We took a late vacation over fall break this year and our family had a blast at the location. We fished, played games, cooked lots of yummy foods, and just had a great time relaxing. Definitely recommend this place for anyone looking to get away!
