Recently picked as the #2 "Magnificent Escapes in Louisiana"! Only 25 miles to New Orleans' French Quarter and Bourbon Street but worlds away as you sit overlooking one of Louisiana's most famous Bayous. Bayou Barataria which once was the home of Pirate Jean Lafitte. From the largest and nicest decks and docks in the Lafitte/Barataria area you can sit over the water as you take in the beautiful views of the bayou and Bayou Life. Don't be fooled by other listings in the area that aren't even near the water or is a house crammed together with many other houses on a man made canal with only the view of houses next to, across, and behind you. Please check out our views and then compare it to all the others....there is no comparison. Those rentals you will not be able to see the beautiful sunrises and sunsets on the bayou....just look at the pictures of the beautiful sunrises and sunsets from this home and decide where you would rather be. This unique home overlooks the real natural Louisiana bayou and marshes providing the perfect setting to experience the serenity and beauty of the Bayou Life! Our unique place provides direct access to the Bayou for fishing, boating, kayaking, paddle boarding, or just relaxing. Fish and crab from the dock, keep your boat in the water ready to go, or our fishing guides can pick you up from your backdoor. Fish, crab, live the Bayou Life and be a New Orleans tourist all in the same trip! Bayou Life Charter Fishing offers a complete fishing experience package. Our fishing guides pick you up right from the back door on the largest dock in the area. Relax, drink your coffee on the dock as the sun rises, and step straight on to the boat. We are at the end of the Lafitte/Barataria area so the boat ride to your fishing hole is that much closer. After booking contact us and we will arrange the perfect fishing and Bayou Life experience. We can also set up swamp tours, boating excursions, sunset wine cruises, and morning breakfast excursion by boat to a local restaurant on a barge. We even have unique access to a neighbors softshell crab experience not offered anywhere else. Come for a visit and we can make sure you have a unique, complete Bayou Life experience. No other rental will provide a more complete Bayou Life experience. We provide crab traps and fishing poles complete with bait to experience catching your own dinner the Bayou Life way. With provided notice we can even bait the traps and set them out prior to your arrival so they can start catching dinner. Each rental will have 5 lbs of jumbo shrimp caught by neighboring fishermen (contact me at booking to reserve). No better way to start off livin’ the Bayou Life than with fresh local jumbo shrimp for dinner....Bayou Life lagniappe. We provide so much more than any other rental....even a commercial ice machine for FREE ICE! Completely equipped with BBQ, smoker, fire pit, and patio furniture for a relaxing and enjoyable Bayou Life experience. Kitchen is completely stocked with all the pots, pans, utensils, and gadgets you could want as well as an extensive amount of spices, condiments, salad dressings, and much more so you don't have to waste time and money at the grocery store. Even has a boiling pot setup to boil up seafood. And if that wasn't enough there are kayaks, a paddle board, crab traps, and fishing poles for your use. If you choose to hit Bourbon Street and do a little partying don't worry about driving....No problem getting to and from the New Orleans French Quarter....I have several Uber drivers on call and ready to take you to and from the New Orleans French Quarter or anywhere in New Orleans at any time of the day or night. Boat may be kept during your stay in the water tied to the dock. Dock is equipped with ropes, cleats, and bumpers. There is plenty of parking available with additional space if needed on an adjacent lot. You have room to keep several cars and boats on trailers in this area. The property has two rental units. Each are completely independent and on separate floors. The only shared areas are the outside docks, decks, and patios....there are several docks, decks, and patios providing plenty of room.

Morgan was great and was quick to answer any questions. ##### Peyton H. Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kay D. Aug 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Loved the Bayou Life Quiet location on the bayou less than an hour south of New Orleans. We had a wonderful time. We especially enjoyed interactions with Morgan and friends, relaxing on the dock, the views, fishing expedition, crab and shrimp boil on the property, tour of the soft shell crab facility nearby, and other recommendations. We stayed in the third floor unit which was well maintained and provided everything we needed. Would definitely stay again. Loved the Bayou Life! ##### Kay D.

Morgan checked in with us to make sure it was great. This is a 3rd floor home. That means yes there are stairs. Seeing other reviews and guest book messages people were amazed there were stairs and that was a compliant. Know what your booking ahead of time, yes stairs, but great quiet house on the bayou. Book the charter with big dog and you won’t be disappointed! ##### Danielle W. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Randall C.

Barataria and Bayou Life turned out to be a perfect spot. Charters picked us up right at our dock each morning (no early-AM car rides!) and we were able to fish from the dock upon our return. Well appointed house; no problem there. The dock is the hidden gem here; we spent hours out there. Very quiet location on a dead end road. Recommended particularly for fishing but convenient for side trips to NOLA. ##### Randall C.

Beautifully maintained surroundings and a clean and cozy place. My husband and I are originally from New Orleans and wanted a place close to the city but far enough to relax. Thank you Morgan for prompt attention to whatever question we asked. I've never stayed in a place with ALL of the seasons needed. Loved it!!! ##### Aloma F.

We were very satisfied with our unit and the cleanliness of it. The decks, seating and firepits were exactly as advertised. The surprise was it was one house divided into 3 units. We were not aware that we would be sharing the facilities with strangers. We had planned a quite getaway together. ##### KENNETH C. Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tammy G. Jun 19, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great stay in thr bayou My husband and I wanted to visit New Orleans but also be able to experience the beauty of the area. This place provided both. We had an easy trip into the city for the day followed by a relaxing evening by the water. My only caution would be that there aren't really any places to eat super close by. There is a small grocery store that had all we needed though. As long as you know in advance, it isn't even an issue. You will not be disappointed! ##### Tammy G. Stayed 8 nights in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### WILLIAM B. Dec 30, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Christmas visit Stayed on the 3rd floor, which wasn't as good as the 2nd floor. The 3rd floor had no door or windows where you could look out and see the water as the 2nd floor had. The 2nd floor has a front and rear door and windows to see the street and the water. Don't get me wrong, the accommodations were great, just would have liked a water view. Fished with Big Dog Fishing Charter and it was perfect. The rental had all we needed for our 6 day visit, and location for several trips to New Orleans, and the Oak Alley Plantation was easy. ##### WILLIAM B.

We really enjoyed to experience something different than any other hotel or house. The location is a bit far so you need a car and there’s not many options when it comes to restaurants… BUT you get to fish off the dock, eat freshly caught crabs and watch the boats passing by. House was not super clean, we had to wash the dishes (pans and coutellerie specially) before using it. But it’s always like that in any other properties we rented. And it needs more hooks to hang towels and something to hang clothes. ##### Nathalie A.
