The Secret Garden Is Located In Covington, Louisiana. Truly One of a kind home!

This was the perfect place and space for our family gathering. The pool is huge! The beds were comfortable. The kitchen had plenty of cookware and utensils for our needs. It was nice having 4 bathrooms and plenty of beds. Thank you!

Six ladies (over 65 years of age) met for a friend-cation! The property was beautiful with plenty of room for all, the kitchen was well stocked. Great place for family time, especially with children to use pool and playground area!

Beautiful home & grounds with so much character.

Truly a hidden gem . Very spacious, beautiful grounds and a stocked kitchen that met all our needs . Great communication !!!!Definitely recommend this listing .

The grounds were extraordinary. Seating areas around the grounds were great for strolling and having coffee. Kitchen was well stocked. Overall a wonderful experience

My family that came from three different states to visit were all very happy with the property. The solarium was a great space for everyone to gather together.

Perfect family Christmas

Great stay. Plenty of room inside and unique outside spaces

It was fantastic in every way the entire property was gorgeous

This is a beautiful property. We loved the sitting room with all the windows. Would definitely recommend to others. Very close to everything downtown. Thank you Diane Ratley

Perfect place for our family to gather for an out of town wedding! Privacy and beauty of the grounds was exceptional! Did lots of cooking and had everything we needed.

The house was wonderful. The garden was exactly what we needed to relax and recharge

9 women in town to play a tennis tournament; great accommodations on large property; enjoyed the pool; plenty of beds and bathrooms; kitchen well-stocked; had everything we needed (but bring your own bath soap). Internet was slow, never could load tv, property is surrounded by lots of trees, so....Other than that, no problems! Would stay there again for sure.

Country living at its finest!! The pictures online are accurate and not retouched. The kitchen was stocked better than my own. The pool area was fantastic. The pond provided hours of fishing and kayaking entertainment. The outdoor kitchen was terrific. Teens and adults all enjoyed the weekend retreat and hopefully we'll be able to enjoy the property again. One grandson said it was the best vacation of his life!! Location is great as well - right here in Louisiana.

The property was gorgeous! We felt like we were in our own private park. You could hear a few vehicles out on the highway, but you could not see them. It was great to have the 5 bedrooms with a bathroom for each, plus the half baths out by the pool.

This was an amazing trip and stay. We enjoyed walking the grounds to discover hidden treasures in the gardens. Having the house and pool to ourselves was fantastic and a great way to relax and reconnect the family. There was an oven issue but Chris was on top of it and communicate well to accommodate me for it. Highly recommend!!

As a frequent vrbo renter i'd have to say this place was very overrated and very overpriced for what you get. From the pictures everything looked great, but there were quite a few downfalls. No smart tvs in any room besides the main bedroom. So you're forced to watch cable, which in 2025 is not the norm. The wifi was constantly dropping signal, so for the remote work we do it was not ideal. Almost all of the beds were extremely cheap and uncomfortable, to the point you felt springs poking into you from the bed all night long. The main sitting room/sunroom (there's no actual living room) gets no wifi at all so you're forced to watch cable (with limited channels) on a 20 inch tv screen from 15 feet away. One of the bedrooms is upstairs and it's VERY hot up there in the summer with only one AC unit. The guesthouse does not have central AC, so it's very warm as well in the summer. The owners were very nice, the pool was nice. The historical part of it was cool and the sunroom was pretty, but overall if you're charging this much for the amenities- the property should be top notch and this is far from it.

This was our 2nd time staying at The Secret Garden and it was just as wonderful the 2nd time! Thank you!

A beautiful property. Perfect for every age group but especially nice for young grandkids. They loved the pond and pool. Hosts were quick and responsive. Hopefully we will book again in the future.

House was beautiful and the location was perfect. We loved the pool and the pond! We would love to come back.

Had a fantastic weekend for our over 60 “Girls” Trip 2025. Beautiful property…highly recommend. It was my 2nd stay and hope to make it back there soon!

Perfect venue to host our cousins group for a surprise family gathering over the weekend. Thank you very much.

Parents, grandparents and great grandma stayed in main house. Bride and bridesmaids stayed in the guest house. This set up was perfect and exactly what we needed. The sun room served as the make up/hair room and then all pics were take in there as well. I highly recommend. The grounds were beautiful— we were planning on a lot of outdoor pics but weather did not cooperate.

We were very pleased with our accommodations. The house was pleasant, clean, spacious, comfortable, and nicely kept. Beds were clean and very comfortable, and the kitchen was fully stocked with all we needed and much more. The playground for the kiddos was a plus and kept them very busy and the solarium was our go to place every day. We will be staying there again.

Everything was as advertised. We had some concerns with the gas range but I was told they would fix it after we left, I hope they did!

We stayed at the Secret Garden with several family members to celebrate Thanksgiving. The grounds are amazing and I wish we had spent more time on them. But the inside of the main house was fantastic for cooking a big meal and a large family gathering to eat it. Everyone loved the place and it was easy to relax there. The driveway turn is a little hard to spot but once you know it is there we didn't have problems afterwards. There isn't really anything walking distance but there is a large grocery store just a 5 minute drive away and lots of places to eat and get stuff along the main road (routine 190) close by. We appreciated that each bedroom has its own bathroom. All the spaces were clean and well supplied. Definitely recommend it for families and we'd happily stay there again.

So nice to have room for 12 of us to eat together . 10 adults and 2 kids. So many nice areas to sit and rest

The house was well Fitted for our writing retreat. Was very comfortable, spacious, the kitchen was perfect for our meals. All around a great experience!

It is beautiful and peaceful! Can't wait to go again!
