Lakeview Gem: 3BR, 2.5BA Home. Private Pool, Marina and Lakefront Views - Perfect for Families

** SPORTSMAN'S PARADISE **

This unique and spacious family home sits on the banks of Lake Pontchartrain which has a front porch that faces the lake and a rear porch that faces the Marina and Southern Yacht Club. The only double-wide boathouse is situated on the Lake Pontchartrain Marina. Serenity is the only home on the bay that features a HEATED private pool that is maintained on a weekly basis. Sleep up to six comfortably in this home-away-from-home! **Pack-n-play available upon request.**

As your host, I strive to provide a seamless and stress-free experience for your stay in New Orleans. While I respect your privacy, I am also available to assist with any needs or questions you may have during your visit. With my extensive background in hospitality, including experience in major hotel chains, I am well-equipped to help plan your perfect trip. Take advantage of your own personal concierge to book tours and activities directly through vendors for added convenience and discounts. Let me help make your stay in NOLA an unforgettable one.

Guests will have exclusive access to the entire home, including the living room, kitchen, 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, laundry, parking, and balconies. In regard to the lower deck, while enjoyment of the deck will be solely for you and your guests, individuals may briefly pass through to access the boat dock and their boat - they will never have access to the home itself, nor will they be able to hang out on the deck. Access to and from the boat dock would be no more than a few minutes and occurs very rarely.

Truly a GEM

We had an amazing experience staying at the NOLA property on the lake. The home was incredible. The master bedroom had a gorgeous view of the marina with a small deck where we enjoyed drinking coffee in the morning. The front balcony deck had views of the lake with a lot of seating, and in the evening we enjoyed the sunset. There were multiple entertaining areas that we were pleasantly surprised with. This place had 3 refrigerators (kitchen, bar, and downstairs on the deck). I would definitely book here again if we were vacationing here with our family again.The communication with the property manager of this home was SUPERIOR!!!Added bonus: There are wonderful restaurants close by and the two that we went to were fabulous. Well, All the food in Orleans seems to be fabulous. we ate at Station 6 and New Orleans Food & Spirit (Pecan catfish was sooo good)

We had a fabulous stay. The place was comfortable, immaculate and the view was 10/10. We enjoyed sitting in the pool on the deck and watching the sunset. All of the furniture and beds were comfortable and the location was unbeatable. We would definitely stay again.

If you value your privacy don't book this property.

After my booking was accepted and my payment processed, the property manager demanded a multi step "verification" process. I was told to visit a website that wanted me to scan my face and ID and sign a release allowing them to share my biometric data with undisclosed third parties. They also demand I take a selfie of myself holding the credit card I used to book the property. In addition they required I sign a multi page abusive rental agreement. I objected strongly to these invasive tactics and repeatedly asked to speak to the property owner without success. I finally acceded to these demands because our flights had already been booked but remain fearful of what use they are making of my biometric data. By the way the heated pool is more like an oversized bath tub and the heater didn't work. The manager promised to send a repair guy but that did not happen.

To Die for View on Lake Pontchartrain

Our first time to stay outside In or near the Quarter and we loved it! Peaceful and beautiful. The Quarter and other areas (like Commander's Palace) are an easy drive away.

We had a great, but short stay. We had some A/C issues but management sent a repair person out promptly. Online check-in process a bit complicated but I understand wanting to secure identity etc.

convenient for our purposes

We were attending a regatta for the weekend so it was a convenient location. Pricey though after all of the add on fees, taxes etc. Check in time was 1hr later than posted which turned into another hour getting credentials. We were on a tight schedule. Nice place but VRbo fees are getting excessive in my opinion.
