Guest access
Guests can access the entire property with the exception of the third floor and the larger closet in the master bedroom. Guests will have access to the smaller closet in the master bedroom, which is still very large. The third story of the house is its own separate apartment and Jenny, the property manager stays there roughly about half of the month. She is VERY quiet and professional and never intrudes on guests' privacy. You can make as much noise and have a great time without worrying about bothering her because on the third floor, you can barely hear anything below. I did not list this as shared space, because you are not sharing any space on the first or second floor. This situation is like having a separate, very private condo on top of the condo you are renting.
You will be blown away with the unique appeal that "Isle of View ( I love you, get it ) has. We can't wait to see you!
We loved and enjoyed our stay very much We stayed 3 nights it was my Brother-& wife along with my granddaughter, my husband and self. Our granddaughter is in an electric wheelchair , it work very nicely for her. Not a place to sit and watch tv r be on phones but a relaxing , fire place, bomb fire marshmallow, bright sky , bird listening place!! We r in our late 60’s , granddaughter 27. The Global wildlife reserve is about 5 miles went there and it too was great. A great Treehouse experience for our sibling get away!!
Very private and isolated. Exactly what we were searching for this trip. Built in the woods so nature is all around while sitting on the back deck relaxing with a glass of your choice. This property is handicap ready for wheelchair individuals or seniors. Parking great especially when bad weather arrives. The elevator is located under house parking therefore loading & unloading is ideal. A very welcome plus. I always bring extra blankets everywhere I stay & they were used. This isn't any reflection on the heating system at all, its just a senior citizen thing. All in all we were very satisfied and the owner was very helpful in every way.
We chose this place to stay for Christmas. This is the most unique place! Private and secluded. Like staying in a tree house! It was very clean, decorated so well I took pictures to steal ideas! The most romantic, and serene place to be. Bed was comfy! We loved it!
The place does look like the pictures but there were a few problems. There were dips in the floor and there was a hole under a chair in the living room. Half of the lights did not work and parts of the place were not as clean as I expected it to be. The place was cool to stay at for the night but i could have paid the amount I did at this place at a motel and find the place in better state. Also the elevator they have feels like it came out of a haunted mansion movie.
The place was very convenient but needed updating. Walkway had some boards that was rotting and the outside was in need of some updating. The place was well designed and very beautiful. Just put some work into it and it would be perfect.
The property was beautiful. The perfect retreat for this midwestern city dwelling family. If you have teens it’s “very insta worthy”. Open and airy with some great shabby chic charm. Definitely a great hidden gem.
We had a great stay at the property. The view is beautiful, the house was clean and the elevator was a great option for when we needed to walk our German Shepherd.
The house and property are exceptional! The owner was easily accessible and helpful. We enjoyed relaxing around the house and property. We also enjoyed fishing and playing in the river. We also like to bring our dogs and they enjoyed exploring and playing in the river. We also enjoyed visiting the Global Wildlife Center
My mom and stepdad came down from IL to visit, so I rented this house for them. They had a wonderful stay! They both enjoyed adventuring on the property. They met Jenny while they were down by the creek and learned the home's history, which is really neat!
very quiet and scenic. a great getaway!
We lost my 29 year old son 2 years ago this week so the ladies in the family spend the week together sharing old memories of Clint and making new ones. We were looking forward to some quiet time and Prayer in the little Church pictured and referenced in the write up and were pretty disappointed that it is nothing but storage for some old exercise equipment. Other than that we loved our stay! Loved it! The house is huge, secluded, well stocked, beautiful! We even survived the thunderstorm and 3 hours playing games by candlelight when our electricity went out. Beautiful new memories! Marcus was very friendly and helpful, easy to get in touch with.
We had a wonderful Christmas at the Isle of view! The property is paradise in the trees, we have nicknamed it the treehouse!
This property is absolutely stunning! It is very private and quiet just what we needed! Only little thing was Wi-Fi cuts in and out, but who cares when you have such a great place with wonderful views- it was actually nice to unplug! Lovely place!
This property is very cool and unique. It’s definitely a place that you need to check out if your travels bring you to the area. Marcus is very kind and very communicative. If we are back in the area we will stay here again.
If privacy is what you want this is the best. Marcus was readily available for information on just about anything - great host. Location was awesome for traveling - we spanned the state from Lafayette (Avery Island) to Mississippi. Both sides E & W were less than 2 hours, so this central location was perfect. Stop at a grocery store and grab a few necessities and begin your hunt for authentic southern food. 5 minutes away is the Global Wildlife Center is like 7 minutes away - we’ve been to the best zoos in the world and this place was so awesome. Highly recommend a private tour - you’ll laugh harder than you ever have when feeding the animals.
Stay
Spent the night here with my family of five. Wished we had stayed two nights. The house is in a wooded area which my kiddos loved. They nicknamed the house “The Enchanted House” because they thought it looked like something in a fairytale. The inside was updated and very clean. AC works great and that’s a huge plus for me! Marcus was easily accessible and friendly. Would totally recommend
Great family fun at the property. House is beautiful. Great views…like a tree house. Internet very unstable, we watched DVD’s.
Outside of a few minor repairs needed, the place is awesome. We all loved it. Not mentioned in his ad, attractions nearby was Global Wildlife reserve, which was also awesome.
We rented this for my daughter and her bridesmaids leading up to her wedding. Very cute, private and relaxing. Marcus was very available.
The place had phenomenal potential, but it was disappointing on this venture.
Wonderful treehouse like escape. Our trip was pretty busy and we all wished we had more time to explore and enjoy the property. Communication was easy and quick. Property was very clean and check out was painless.
The owner was easy to reach, polite, & very welcoming. The property was amazing. My only complaint was that it could have been cleaner, meaning dust, cobwebs, &more dust. But it's has a very large 2nd floor&they're booked back to back with customers so i understand it's hard & a lot to keep up w/. But i hope the owner puts some money into the place each year bcz it's an amazing piece if property2own. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat. I rented it bcz I'd been wanting to go to the Global Wildlife which had been closed for renovations & was suppose to reopen on April 1, 2022. However, it was still closed but that didn't phase us in the least bcz we enjoyed this place so very much. Thx U Mr. Marcus 4 sharing your gorgeous home with us. We luv it. Saw a beautiful Luna moth 1st day there and a large harmless snake too. At night, 40 different types of frogs singing & lightening bugs too! How magical!!!! No shortage of God's wonderful creations here. ThxU.
