About this property

Spacious house with wooded backyard and a private pier!

MIDTERM RENTALS WELCOME AT DISCOUNTED RATE!!!
***If staying longer than 1 month, please contact me for a rate.***

3 bed 2 bath home with a great view of false river. This approx. 2400 sqft home sits right across the street from the lake on a huge lot. You will be able to walk across the street to the lake and enjoy a really nice covered dock. Sit in the sun, swim, fish, relax or tie up your boat! The house has a big open kitchen with an island and tables for working or playing. Lots of concrete area for parking, cooking and even playing a basketball game on a really nice goal. We have other outdoor games to enjoy, grilling, and a ping pong table! The fishing on the lake can be really good at times both in the daylight and at night . we usually have lots of birds for viewing from the lake and in the back yard. A walk in the mile long back yard and you can see chickens, birds of all sorts and even the occasional bald eagle.

House is big and spacious with lots of parking. Hosts are excellent and super nice. House was clean and had everything that we needed. Jet tub was a relaxing plus! Pier across the street was nice to swim and fish off of with a porch swing. It was just a relaxing home. And I do mean home. It's lived in and comfy and inviting.

Great spot

We had a very nice weekend here, the hosts Kelly and Claire were supper nice and accommodating, we even got some fresh yard eggs upon our arrival. The house is spacious and only a short walk to a very nice dock, great for swimming and lounging. Overall a wonderful weekend and even got to take my kids in the backyard to watch some cows and chickens !

Pictures do not do it justice

This is a great house! Very spacious. It is across the street from the River but a very easy walk across to their empty lot and pier. This home has everything you need for a fun, relaxing stay. Comfortable beds, well-equipped kitchen, great parking and spacious yard which is a great added bonus! We would definitely stay again!

Comfortable home away from home

Claire was an excellent hostess and made sure our stay was enjoyable. The pictures are accurate, however there is a large new home being constructed directly across the house which partially obstructs the river view. We were mostly spending time with friends at another home down the river so this wasn’t a dealbreaker for us. The pier is very nice and was super convenient for the days we rented a pontoon boat. The view of the river and pier from the house is still accurate despite the construction. The back patio and property are very peaceful and relaxing. Front porch could use some improvements to facilitate outdoor visiting with a river view from the front. My husband and I brought 2 teens and 2 grandparents and the space was perfect.

Perfect for all ages

Our stay at the David’s lake house was just what we needed.My 75 yo mom, my teen son, and I came to the area for a bucket list wish.My mom wanted to see Jimmy Swaggart at his church in BR, enjoy a crawfish boil and try fried gator! We were able to check them all off and so much more. Yes, the home is older and has its quirks, but there is a charm about it.The home was so much bigger than we expected and offers multiple spaces to lounge, eat, WFH, and entertain as well as find respite.The beds are comfortable, there is ample closet space, and plenty of extra blankets for people like me who are always cold!The drive to New Roads for groceries or to get a tire fixed (yep happens on vacation too) is within 20 minutes.There are plenty of amazing restaurants to choose from too.The drive to BR is about 35-40 minutes and easy as well.I WFH, so I was able to set up my office with amazing lake views! There is a small desk in 2 of the bedrooms and several tables.The wifi was more than sufficient for me to work, stream a movie, and to have several devices connected at the same time.My mom has trouble getting around because of a previous injury to her ankle, and the home was easy for her to walk around in. The slope to the dock presented a little more of a challenge, so be aware, it can be difficult for older individuals.She was able to make it down and back with the help of a cane.That dock is so nice! Between the fishing tips, the fresh eggs and veggies, the David’s are great hosts!

St. Francisville visit

We came here to celebrate my Mom’s 85th birthday. I was looking for a VRBO near St. Francisville. This place looked like a good fit for our 4-generation group ages 2 - 85. The lake looked inviting and the private pier sealed the deal. Inside was very comfortable and roomy and we enjoyed the fireplace and other amenities. Everything you need is supplied. We felt very welcomed.

Visiting Grandmas House

The house was big and location was good. The walk to the pier was a bit taxing when you are carrying all the things to the boat. The owners were very friendly and quick to respond. The stove didn’t work well and the oven wouldn’t stay at the desired temp. (Made my famous biscuits take extra long and no golden brown tops because the heat would not stay consistent). Overall if you want camp life at False River and you have a big crew this is a good spot. But, it is a camp that could use some light maintenance and deeper clean before guest. (The master bath tub had hair and the toilet seat wasn’t wiped down). Those are all things that can be easily fixed with a colorox wipe.
