Family booked three cabins for an LSUS graduation weekend, and we couldn't have found a better place. Everything was clean, and the property was so pretty. Highly recommended, and we will be back for a longer stay!

No paddles for the boats.A little cluttered with wood stacked under house.Could have better drapes in master to keep out light.Seemed like a place in transition with decorating and upgrades.Overall though an enjoyable stay. Nice, quiet and relaxing.

This was perfect for our girls trip. We explored the lake in one of the provided canoes and loved hanging out in the screened porch & just catching up with each other. We definitely plan to come back.

Bravo cheer nationals stay

We were in town for cheer competition and found this place lovely! Very clean, close to everything and the MOST comfy beds. We cooked for ourselves and enjoyed the back in closed porch to enjoy a glass of wine after a long day. Will be coming back for a longer stay

Just what we needed to take a breather and relax. Came for just 2 nights but they were amazing. Basically no phones and no tv, just my wife and I and the sounds of nature.

Serene

The property was a blast and absolutely stunning! Enjoyed the great cabin, wildlife and we caught some good sized fish. Lots of activities available on site, enough to stay there the whole time but lots of cool places like the Louisiana Boardwalk to explore nearby. Jennifer is fabulous!

Great little weekend getaway!

I have a 11 year old and 15 year old that absolutely loved the canoes and fishing. I brought my camera and hit some great photos of the kids with the beautiful views around the property. The host was great and responded to any questions I had. We would visit again.

Great place

Quiet and cozy All in all was very similar tothe Listing as well. If I had to nit pick there were a few things structurally that needed some attention, but was easily looked past. Was also very pleased to see that the hosts had fully stocked the kitchen with utensils.

A VERY special place! Can’t wait to return!

We just spent 3 nights in Diana’s Cabin and feel we found one of those “Special” places that are few in life. The setting cannot be beat; the view, the peaceful feeling and the sense of tranquility will stay with us always We plan on returning again and again. Diana was always quick to respond to questions and provided a great overall experience. Thank you Diana!

Anniversary Getaway!

My wife and I chose this area for our 21st wedding anniversary and I did not disappoint. The lake with cypress trees was gorgeous along with the peace and quiet. The Cabot had everything we needed and the sleepnunber bed was definitely an added plus. Location was very close to local casinos and historic Jefferson,Tx. Thank you for making this anniversary one to remember. The Perez’s

Nice getaway

Spent 2 nights over Columbus Day weekend with our 2 teenagers at this sweet little cabin. The cabin is nice and cozy and has everything you need. Beds are comfortable, the screened patio is perfect to have your meals and enjoy the sounds of the swamp around. There is a firepit on the little peninsula behind the cabin were we spent most of our time outdoors. We also used the kajaks that were provided to get out on the lake and it’s really beautiful to go through the trees. Overall a great little vacation spot to enjoy nature around you.

Wonderful Hideaway!

We were staying in a hotel in the Shreveport area and had problems with the noise level there. Luckily I found a last-minute opening and we moved to the Emerald Cove Cabin. The property is rustic and eclectic but offers modern comforts. Working during the day was great since the internet is solid enough for voip. The sounds of the surrounding wildlife from the screened porch in the evenings are amazing. Hope to stay again next time we visit!!

Wedding weekend getaway

This place is AMAZING!! Easy check in- check out. Fabulous lake access, kyaks, wonderful screened-in porch, the kids loved the bunk beds and trundle bed. We were impressed by the secluded area, but with enough parking space for our jetski and truck. The nature was so calming at night. The hosts.... can't say enough! Super responsive, addressed all questions so quickly and set up the most amazing space for our family. I'd give this VRBO experience a >10/10!! We will definitely return!
