Morels, Satterfields, and Ma Mama's Kitchen.

You can drive over to St. Francisville and there is another
great spot to eat called The Francis. In the town of New roads there is a Walmart on hospital dr. That is about a 10 min drive from the house.

Other Things to Note:
🔹While you may be visiting, your actions during your stay are permanent to the neighborhood and potentially our business. We kindly ask you to be respectful of quiet hours from 10PM - 7AM. That means no yelling, screaming, or loud music outside during these hours. Noise travels further than you may think :)

🔸Two pets maximum per stay - Pricing as follows... A 1-5 night stay is $150 and will automatically be added at check out. If your stay is 6 nights or longer, you'll be charged the $150 at check out + $40 per day for nights 6 and beyond (this will be applied after booking).

🔹Refunds will not be issued for cancellations due to inclement weather or personal emergencies. We are sorry for an inconveniences this may cause

🔸Bird droppings are a regular occurrence on our dock, chairs, and tables, thanks to False River's active waterfowl population. Despite weekly cleanings, keeping them poop-free is a constant challenge for all lake houses. To help, we've provided a water hose and brush at the gazebo for chair clean-ups. Sorry for any inconvenience—just part of lake life!

🔹Lake drawdown starts after Labor Day 2024 through Jan 15, 2025. Drawdown means there will be no water within 50 yards of our dock; however, there is still water in the lake for fishing and other recreational activities that you'll need to drive to. Outside of these dates is a lake FULL of water to enjoy.

Weekend Girlfriends Mahjong Trip

The property was exactly what we needed. Plenty of room, beautiful view on the water, and the home was just as beautiful. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed and all the beds had the most comfortable bedding. We spent our mornings playing mahjong on the screen in porch while drinking coffee and looking at the water. During the day we went shopping in Saint Francisville and had dinner at the Myrtles. We will definitely be going back. The town of New Roads was so cute. It was raining the day we left and the owner gave us an extra hour to check out which was so nice. The only suggestion we had for property is to mark the long driveway with house numbers, we had some trouble seeing it in the night.

Wonderful Stay!

We had a fantastic time. The property was exactly as described, clean, and well-maintained. The host was extremely responsive and provided clear instructions for check-in and check-out. The screened in porch was a highlight for our family. The location was perfect but I just wish we were told no water anywhere near the dock. I’m glad I went before my family so I could warn them not to bring the boats. We would most likely stay here again!

It was the perfect place to see the fireworks, this place is across the river from where the city pop them. Everything about the camp was nice. From the comfortable beds to the very nice dock. Easy to park my pontoon boat. I will definitely stay here again. 5 stars

Vacation from Vacation!

This is a very beautiful lakefront home with a lot of amenities. We stopped here to get some rest, driving back on our family vacation, and enjoyed the serene peacefulness of being on the water. The kids enjoyed the paddle boarding and the kayak as well. My only regret was not being able to stay longer. I would definitely recommend this home, and would LOVE to stay again!

5 Star Retreat!

We were the first ever to rent this beautiful home on False River. The host was a great communicator and went above and beyond to make sure our stay was exceptional! The house is very spacious, well equipped, clean, and super comfy! We felt right at home! This house is on the shallower end of the lake; however, we had no problem getting our wake boat to the pier - depth is between 3-4 feet. Kids were able to swim and fish from the oversized pier. The host even provided, fishing poles, tackle, kayak, and an aqua pad! It was a great weekend! We will be back!

Wish we had longer

This property was beautiful. We stay in/along False river once a year due to having family in the area. Each time we choose a different house because they're all beautiful. This property was no different. It offered amenities such as a outdoor netted area for seating and a gorgeous view of False River. The home was just large enough for my entire family along with my elderly grandma. The only hang ups experienced was the struggle with the flameless fire pit and limited space for trash however the owner answered appropriately. While we we're not ble to figure it out, the owner responded fairly quickly to where we knew we wouldn't be able to use the grill and come up with a different solution. All in all thw stay was fairly uneventful and restful

INACCURATE LISTING. Renters Beware! Not Premier Host- Charged 194 not on invoice, NOT CLEANED WHEN

Besides the misleading info on the listing, our party of 10 arrived after a long day of travel to an unclean house. The house was uncleaned, messy, sticky floors and dirty towels in the washer. We were traveling with toddler (1) that needed high chair and travel crib (listed in listing) and none in house. There was also no single beds in any of the bedrooms. We had 9 adults and 1 Toddler. We assumed that 1 adult would sleep in one of the single beds. No way was she expecting to sleep on a floor mattress. We immediately called the (Kingdom Hospitality Co listing) and got no answer. We contacted a customer service rep from VBRO who said they would contact host. After 1 hour we got a call back from Kingdom Hospitality Co employee who said she would get the cleaning crew over immediately. She told us to go enjoy dinner (on them) and it should be done when we got back. And that the crib and high chair would be brought over for us to use. We came back at 9:30 pm, and the cleaning staff was still working. We waited for them to finish, and the high chair was there but still no travel crib. (We found the case empty). We also noticed no single beds any of the bedrooms like listing stated. And for the floor mattresses, no linen for them. After 11PM a cleaning company staff came over and brought the travel crib, and new sheets for the floor mattress and apologized. Does not sleep 14. Possibly 10 guests. Bedrooms only have 1 bed each. There is NO twin bed in any bedroom. Two-floor

Last time I am responding. I do not utilize social media. The house is great. DO NOT USE my name, etc. I have talked to host, he knows we rebook. That should be enough. DO NOT WANT to see my review on line.
