Cozy Cottage with a separate guest house is in the country near Abita Brewery, wineries, Lake Ponchartrain, and a short drive to New Orleans. This historic barge board cottage on private property has a covered gazebo, wraparound screened-in porch, outdoor deck and walking paths through the woods to see foliage, squirrels, and birds. One of the features I love most and guests constantly refer to is the huge screened wraparound porch -- a great space for listening to birdsong and admiring the b

Stayed Apr 14, 2023The house had a lovely screened porch and a wonderful gazebo with a hammock. I wished I had more time to spend there to enjoy them. If one is a light sleeper, the road noise could be an issue, and the fact that the bathroom is between the two bedrooms could also be an issue for a light sleeper, as there is no buffer from the noise of the shower, etc.

Stayed Mar 13, 2026The cozy cottage felt like my grandmother’s house. The large azalea bushes were in full bloom, and we loved sitting and eating on the large screened porch. It was conveniently located near our relatives in the area. The Abita Brewery was nearby and a fun place to hang out.

Stayed Feb 1, 2026Great stay north of New Orleans!! The pictures can't fully capture the authentic, comfortable, and quaint feel of this cottage in Louisiana. The area is beautiful and this property is conveniently located to allow full exploration of Lake Pontchartrain and New Orleans.The cottage (two cottages actually) is everything we had hoped for when looking for a property with a real Louisiana feel. Private without feeling isolated. Comfortable living space, exceptionally cozy beds, great bathrooms, easily-usable kitchen...and the grounds are spectacular! The wrap-around porch, gazebo, and deck all allowed for outdoor living...in February!!The owner is gracious, highly communicative and responsive to questions, and ensured that we were comfortable and having our needs met. We spent the entire month and would have stayed longer if we could! Looking forward to coming back soon!

Stayed Dec 5, 2025Merry is an excellent host! This was our 2nd time staying at her lovely home. Our nephew stayed in the guest house. It was great that he got to have some privacy. We stayed in the main house. The bed we slept in is super comfy. I loe that the house is away from the road. It's nice & quiet, just what we want on vacation!

Stayed May 21, 2025Our experience overall was great! We were pleased that all was in order and ready for use.We enjoyed excellent privacy and convenient access in all directions to places we planned to visit. We had all the conveniences we have at home. There was an abundance of space to enjoy. We'll consider staying at the Cozy Cottage when we visit the area again as we do have family in the area. Thanks again Miss Merry.

Stayed May 3, 2025We visited Louisiana for a graduation, the house had more than enough space. Like a secluded retreat tucked away, but very close to everything you need. No complaints. The porch was a treat at the end of the night. Very comfortable beds. Very clean.

Stayed Jan 25, 2025The host Merry was super informative and kept us in the loop when is SNOWED in Louisiana (never happens). All was good at the house though thank goodness. Easy directions to get in. The heat worked fantastic (not always the case in older homes) and the bed was super comfortable. We are going back in December and are going to book this house again!
