Family stayed here. It served our needs and more. I wish the screened patio had a door on it, so we could use it without the bugs. Overall, it was a good stay. The primary bedroom felt a little like a motel room, with sink in the room and toilet and shower in a small space without a real door (there was louvered closet door). It was a great location for what we needed to do. Close to the groceery stores and dining. We've stayed on every side of shreveport depending on what family stuff was happening. We'd stay here again.

Will be coming back!

We had to go to Shreveport area for work and decided to book with Vrbo instead of a hotel. It is in a very quiet neighborhood; and in fact, a couple of us when for a walk. The house was very spacious and enjoyable, with a homey feel. The house was also super clean and we loved the outdoor sitting area. We will definitely book again when we have to come back!

Perfect set up for our family

We rented the property as we were in town for a funeral. There were two living spaces that we were able to spread out so some could watch TV or visit while the others were working on things for the service. All the bedrooms were well sized and living space proportions well, so that those who wanted to stay up late would not keep others awake. Everything clean and worked well. Very glad we found this property.
