    The host was very kind to call prior to arrival to see if we needed anything. Easy checkin and very convenient to Abita Springs Cafe, Brewery and pizza place. Beds very comfortable and loved the screened in porch.

    We enjoyed our stay at the beautiful Southern Oaks Guest House. It was clean and well stocked with everything we needed for a weekend away. Rhonda was a great host and communicated well with us. Would definitely stay here again.

    The cottage is a sweet place, but Vrbo lists it as 4 bedrooms which is incorrect. I found it a little creepy that the owners watched us on the security cameras. I‘ve also never had a place charge me for an extra person when it doesn’t exceed the amount of people the listing states that can stay there.

    Rhonda’s place is simply charming. From the moment you pull up to the house you’re transported to a magical experience. Coming from the desert in Arizona, we loved sitting outside either in the front or the back - able to enjoy the sunrise or sunset.
