Jason, we are so glad you enjoyed your stay. Hope you had a great time at Cypremort Point and on the bayous in the area. We look forward to seeing you back.
I booked last minute, and the owners were kind enough to accommodate me. The cabin is absolutely beautiful, spotlessly clean with thoughtful touches that made it feel extra special. As a solo female traveler, I felt completely safe and at ease, which means a lot. It’s right on the bayou with a lovely little view, and the directions were clear and helpful, including exactly where to park. I spent a peaceful evening relaxing on the back porch and couldn’t have asked for a better stay. I’ll definitely be back!
Exactly what we wanted, a quite, peaceful weekend to just relax and enjoy.
Very plush, well taken care of property. Beautiful setting on Bayou Teche. The Cabin itself was perfect , it had everything we needed to make ourselves at home.

Thank you for leaving your comments. We are delighted you found Olive Branch Cottages amazing! We hope to see you and your husband in the future when you can spend more time exploring Cajun country.
Our stay was wonderful. The location was very rural which made it very quiet and peaceful. The view from the screened area in the rear of the river was relaxing (and bug free). Glasses and plates were plentiful. Short on eating utensils. Just grab some plastic with a carryout meals. The pictures of the inside and outside was exact. Very clean and well maintained. Thank you from Gary and Chis.
This place was everything we were looking for. We wanted a quite place on to use as a resting place as we went to various activities around the area. When we were there, it was very peaceful to sit on the patio and relax. The place was clean and quite and just a cozy retreat.

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and the great attractions in the area. We hope you stay with us again when you are back in this area.
Sipping coffee early in the morning while sitting on the screened porch watching the bayou wake up is an indescribable wonder. This was our second trip and we will definitely be back when we need some peace and tranquillity.

A wonderful place to get away and relax.
The whole property is very well taken care of. Everything was taken care of prior to our arrival, but we had the pleasure of meeting Mr. & Mrs. Duhe upon arrival, oh and Otis too..
The cabin was clean and prepared for our stay, nicely decorated and comfortable. My favorite spot is the shared/community screened in porch.
Hopefully next time we visit our friends in New Iberia we are able to stay here again.

Lovely property with nothing missing! From pristine condition to atmosphere!
Sweet and cozy. This cottage is a wonderful place. The location on the river gives serenity necessary for any stay. The charm of the property depicts the southern comfort indicative of South Louisiana. I regret not allowing more time for the screened back porch. I will put this property on my frequent list when visiting family.

Thank you so much for your review! The screened in back porch has been a favorite feature for many of our guest. I hope you come stay with us again and get more time to enjoy it.

This is a brilliant property created by someone with an innate sense of style. The accommodations are beautiful and the property sublime. The owners have obviously poured a lot of love into creating a uniquely Louisiana experience which is very much appreciated. Acknowledgement of our request to stay was immediate and was followed by careful instructions for finding the place along with a promise to help with any needs. However, the place has been prepared with such care that there's nothing needed.
Since Louisiana in August can be a bit warm, we've spent most of our stay on the screened-in back porch watching the bayou under the cool breeze of ceiling fans. It's quiet, peaceful, relaxing and absolutely exceeds our expectations. This morning we watched the sun rise from the porch while enjoying coffee and listening to a light rain on the tin roof. Very, very well done.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review. It makes us so happy that our hard work translated into a wonderful stay at Olive Branch Cottages. That is what we strive for! We love sharing the peace and tranquility on the bayou and hope to see you back soon!
We were in the area for a family reunion and wished to stay on the bayou where my guy’s 97 year old mother grew up. How fortunate that we found the perfect place to experience the bayou Dot te’ still loves today. It was a wonderfully relaxing time and the host was extremely accommodating. We will surely stay again the next time we visit the area.
Great property, easy check-in, exactly as described. Wife and I got away to see Avery Island and wanted a neat little place to stay and we found it in this VRBO. We're already talking to other family members about returning and renting both units - the patio is shared by both units and to our delight the other group was so nice and hospitable that we enjoyed their company immensely. All in all, a great place and we wouldn't hesitate staying here again.
What a beautiful cottage and property. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, especially sitting on the back porch and patio. Thank you for sharing Bayou Teche and this wonderful part of Louisiana with us.
