LSU football weekend

Fantastic home which six adult couples enjoyed immensely for a Thursday-Sunday LSU football weekend! Plenty of outdoor space to enjoy fellowship and relax in the pool and hit tub. We also hired private Chef Jeremy Coco who provided an exceptional meal. The owners are terrific people and great to work with !

The perfect place

We found this property to be super clean and beautiful. Well stocked, so that made it nice, only needing to bring our food. Communication with the owner/manager was top notch as well. They were extremely helpful and even went out of their way to find us a source of fresh crawfish. The pool and adjoining kitchen/living area were amazing. We spent all day there, only using the house to sleep. The house had everything you could ask for. The bedrooms were big and roomy. The kitchen was my dream kitchen. We’ve been doing a family vacation for several years and this is, without a doubt, the nicest place we’ve been to.

False River get away

Our family of 10 that included 3 generations had a fabulous time at this beautiful property on False River. It had everything we needed plus much more. The accommodations were first class from the beautiful home with plenty of space for everyone and a game room, to a spacious pool with a hot tub, to the incredible outdoor kitchen and entertainment space, that we all enjoyed, to the pier and breezy covered dock on the lake. The owners were very and attentive and had the home stocked with anything we needed for our stay. We will definitely be back. Everyone gave our long weekend on the lake a 10 out of 10!

Rolling On Da River 2023

The house was amazing and the description didn’t do it justice. So much space and areas to enjoy together or to have a little time alone if desired. Six rooms was perfect for our family. We loved the outdoor kitchen area next to pool and hot tub was amazing. We really didn’t have to go in the house until the evening. There were so many extra touches and needs thought out like usb connections in almost every room. They thought of so many things to make life comfortable for those who stay there. We also rented their pontoon boat and enjoyed our sunset cruises each evening. We really had an amazing time! The owners were fantastic and always happy to respond to any questions.

House to buy when you hit the lottery

Usually we're kinda sceptical about going off reviews.. but I gotta tell you as people who have used VRBO a few times now NOONE has come close to these hosts!! The property was mind blowing .. pictures don't do this place justice. The sheer size of the home alone was crazy.. but the outdoor kitchen and hangout area was ridiculous.. that's the only way I could describe it.. if we ever hit the lottery we're making an offer on this house!! Now let's talk about this hosts.. you always worry what kinda people you might be renting off of so let me put your mind at ease.... These people honestly made us feel like we were staying at a families home. We really can't say enough about them .. every little touch and thing that they had thought out ahead of time to make sure our stay magical had already been done.. my wife absolutely melted (I know that sounds cheesy) when she saw the master bedroom.. it's view and the crazy attached master bathroom complete with .. get this.. real fresh flowers... Any time we had to call our hosts for any questions or anything we found ourselves getting sidetracked and just talking about a million other things it was always like we were just talking to our friends if that makes sense? And to be honest I don't think it was like a thing that they were doing just to get good reviews or anything, could genuinely tell it's just who they are ... With all that being said ide highly recommend this rental and we'll be doing everything in our power to come back ❤️

About the host

Hosted by Danny & Alys Messenger

Host profile image
We bought this house in 2020 and have absolutely loved it. We immediately converted the attic to 2 bedrooms each with a private bathroom. We also added the swimming pool, hot tub and outdoor kitchen. When our house is not rented, you can always find us relaxing by the pool, by the fire in the outdoor kitchen, or on the party barge running the river.

Why they chose this property

We love the location on False River. It is very quiet on our end of the river. We love to jump on the party barge and go for a ride. The view of the river can be enjoyed from the back patio, swimming pool, hot tub or around the fireplace in the outdoor kitchen. We cannot think of a more relaxing location to spend our time.

What makes this property unique

The unique benefits to our house starts with the 6 bedrooms. Everyone will have their own private place to go at the end of the night. Additionally, the pool, hot tub and outdoor kitchen make this the best all around rental on the water in Louisiana.
