Great stay in a very nice neighborhood. The cottage is private and the owner communicates good, is timely and responsive. I stayed for a few months on business.
Rented for a an LSU-S student. Perfect location and setup. Thanks, Ben!

Great neighborhood, great pup, not-so-great prepI spent October here helping my daughter get ready for my first grandbaby. The location was a win: a quiet, lovely neighborhood, easy parking right out front, and the host's sweet dog was my pup's favorite fetch partner.The cottage was a letdown. The all-white comforter had what looked like blood stains when I arrived, so I washed it and used my own. The "kitchen" is a microwave with a broken display and rusted interior, a toaster oven that only toasts, a one-burner hot plate with one setting (scorching), a kettle with mystery gunk on the bottom, and a saucepan so well hidden I bought my own. For a 31-day stay I was left 1/4 roll of toilet paper, half a roll of paper towels, one garbage bag, and someone else's used bar soap. There was no hand soap. Add cobwebs around the headboard, a spider crossing my legs one morning, two giant cockroaches, a door gap that lets in light and bugs, a dusty, unusable porch and grill, and two multi-hour internet outages while I was working remotely.It's fine for a night or two if you pack supplies. For a month, bring everything, including bug spray.
My grandson and his wife stayed here while searching for a home to purchase in the area. They said it was perfectly clean, comfortable and safe. I was lucky to have found this week and if it had been available longer, I would have reserved another week.
From the moment I stepped in the cottage it felt like home! I was lucky enough to find this gem for an extended stay (10 weeks) and I’m so glad that I did! The cottage is located in a quiet neighborhood, but still pretty close to everything. I was always very comfortable in the cottage and Bethard’s were the perfect hosts! I would recommend the cottage to anyone, whether you are looking for a weekend getaway or something a little longer you won’t be disappointed!

Charming cottage perfect for any stay
We stayed three nights in this adorable little back house and wish we could have stayed longer. It has everything a couple or small family like ours needs. The setting feels fully private and everything from the bed(s) to the hot shower is beyond comfortable and cozy. If you’re looking for an alternative to a cold hotel room and like the quiet of a semi-rural neighborhood, book this spot for your next visit to Shreveport. You’ll be happy you did.

Perfect Quiet Cottage
The Rural Woods Cottage is located in a great location , the neighborhood is just far enough out of town but close to everything you need. Ben is a joy to work with, we have stayed there a couple times now and will continue to book the cottage any time we go to the area.
This cottage really has the potential to be a hit. A few things are lacking to make it functional but the owner is aware of those and taking steps to make it perfect.

Very nice, but a little smaller in proximity to the main house than I thought.
Communication was good with Ben. They were very accommodating and helpful. Very nice family.

Cozy & Quiet
We stayed for several nights while my husband fished a bass tournament on the Red River. The owners were sweet and accommodating. It is in a quiet, safe and lovely neighborhood where I felt comfortable going for a walk alone . The cottage has cooking facilities, a refrigerator, washer & dryer and queen bed. It is also close to restaurants, grocery stores and malls (5-10 min drive). We would stay here again.
