Upon arrival, guest will see parking with a sidewalk leading way to a raised and welcoming large front porch. Past the porch, is entry to the home where you will walk into a spacious and open floor plan.

Upon entry, guest will be standing at the start of the full kitchen with all modern amenities including all stainless appliances, (French door refrigerator, microwave, and range with oven) garbage disposal, granite sink, porcelain counter tops, center island with breakfast bar for 3 and all kitchen set up items needed for your stay. At the rear of the kitchen, just to the right of the entry is the full bath. The barn style door offering access and privacy to the full bath was pulled from an antebellum home on river road in Reserve, LA and re-purposed specifically for this property.

Next to the kitchen is a dinner nook with seating for four that looks out over Chinquapin canal that is the perfect setting for a mid day lunch or an evening dinner watching the sunset over the swamp. The room then flows into to the living area equipped with a smart LED TV loaded with current apps for streaming as well as YouTube TV included. Furnishings in the living area include a full size couch, love seat and oversized chair along with end and coffee tables. The living room also has 5.1 surround sound and low light lamps for late night movies.

Behind the sofa are the stairs that will lead guest to the second story loft that contains 2 queen sized beds with custom built head boards from reclaimed doors that date back to the 1860s, a half bath, nightstand and armoire for any garments that may need to be hung. All shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand soap, toilet paper, and coffee are provided with your stay.

After guests are done inside, the back door leads out onto a fully raised deck that stretches the width of the property with lots of space for sun, cooking, fishing, and just taking in the scenery. Four fishing poles are provided to guest.

Connected to the back deck is a covered deck that extends 30’ over the water and has 2 -3500 lb boat lifts and a fish cleaning station. Guests are welcome to bring their own water craft and can be kept in the boat house for the duration of their stay. There is a convenient boat launch at the front of the neighborhood for you to launch upon arrival. Lift planks can be adapted for different types of boats if needed. Boat house also includes power for charging and outdoor lighting.

The Chinquapin Canal opens into Blind River and is a short boat ride to Lake Maurepas as well as the Diversion Canal. Along both routes, there are endless places for fishing, frogging, and touring places most people never get to see from land. Whether you fish from the dock for catfish, or hit the stumps in your own boat for wide mouth bass, spotted bass, sac a lait, and other native fish to the area, you are almost sure to bring home a great dinner.

If fishing isn’t your thing, there are many other adventures around the lake! You are minutes from the sand bars in Lake Maurepas. A quick jog north of the lake takes you to the Tickfaw River where the popular hot spots The Prop Stop and Tin Lizzie’s are located, as well as Sun Buns and Middendorph’s in Manchac. This area and the lake are also prime tubing, skiing, and wake boarding spots. A little closer brings you to the Diversion Canal that hosts Canal Bank, Dicarlo’s Food and Spirits, Lagniappe, and Rum Buoy’s. If you don't have a boat and need to rent one, you can contact Geaux Outdoors for availability.

Even-though Whiskey Business is located in the heart of the swamp, there are several locations close by that offer various services to our guests. All within 6 miles are Brian’s Supermarket, Whitehall Grocery, New Orleans Original Daiquiris, Dollar General, along with various restaurants, bars, and fuel stations. Delivery is not available by Waitr etc. however, both grocery stores have delis and can take custom pizza orders for pick up. (Make sure to call as their hours vary with the seasons!)

The most appealing part of this property is the environment that it is located. We are in nature and with that comes the possibility of some amazing wildlife sightings. Many species of birds and owls are abundant as well as bald eagles. The occasional alligator, deer, and snake may be spotted as well. Please be respectful of their territory we are in their habitat. We don't restrict access to the lofts or decks, but we are not responsible for any injuries that may occur by entering the loft/deck areas. Children must be supervised on walkways/lofts and docks at all times.

Two kayaks are provided to explore the canal and swimming is not restricted but not recommended or encouraged. please use extreme caution due to the possibility of wildlife as well as heavy boat traffic. The canal is a not wake restricted and can get very busy at times. Users assume all risk and liability while using kayaks in the water and/Or Swimming.

One thing to note is that although secluded, our property is located in a residential neighborhood with about 150 other residents. We live and manage the property from next door so we are close by if there is any needs during your stay.

    Everything this was just as listed. We loved that it was right off the water and was able to fish. The kitchen and bathroom was well furnished with everything you might need for your stay. The bed was comfortable. The whole place was very spacious. The view out the windows and from the dock are beautiful. The neighbors are so nice and make you feel so welcome. Stephen was a great host and easy to work with. I didn’t want to leave. It’s a definite top 10 in my book and can’t wait to come back.

    Stephen and Holly are the PRIME examples of hospitality. Always checked in with us if we needed anything and offered to take us out to their favorite restaurant. Definitely take their recommendations!Roughly 1hr from NOLA and about 45mins from Baton Rouge, this is the perfect place to have easy access to either bigger city without having to stay in them proper. Easy access to grocery stores and some delicious more local food. Highly recommend!

    We had the most peaceful, relaxing and comfortable stay, I think ever. We were only 40 minutes from home, but it seemed like 1,000,000 miles away. Stephen and Holly made us feel so welcome and some of the friendliest people ever. We couldn’t have asked for better hosts. We will definitely be booking more trips to this property in the future.

    We took our daughter and her three kids and another grandson to Louisiana to celebrate school being out. The home was great. It was in a perfect spot for the boy to fish. My wife kayaked over into the marshy area. It was a perfect base for our other activities as we drove into New Orleans one day and then on to the Mississippi beaches. We also took a swamp boat road. We recommend Beyone the Bayou. One of the unexpected highlights was Whitehall Grocery. Great, unique selection of foods that all of us loved and very friendly.

    We truly enjoyed our stay at Whiskey Business. The pictures don’t do it justice. Sitting on the covered dock was relaxing and the hot tub with a view of the water is heaven. The home itself is well decorated with comfortable furniture and beds. The kitchen is well stocked and the on-site BBQ pit was perfect for grilling steaks. The host was attentive with great communication and fast responses to any questions. He even invited us over for gumbo! We will definitely be back!
