Great house steps to the lakefront!

My husband and I would like to welcome everyone to our relaxing house in the heart of Old Mandeville. You will love it and not want to leave.

Our house is only steps away from Mandeville’s Beautiful Lakefront which is perfect to take a leisurely walk, jog, ride bikes or just sit and enjoy the views and sunsets. There are children’s playgrounds on both ends and a splash pad at the end of the lakefront near our house.

The city boat launch is across the street at the harbor for those who want to bring a boat or book a fishing trip with Wicked Fishing Charters which leaves from the launch. They also offer sunset cruises and kayak rentals.

The Tammany Trace Bike Trail is right down the street. It is originally a corridor for the Illinois Central Railroad and now is Louisiana’s first rail-trail. The bike path runs from Downtown Covington to Slidell.

Old Mandeville offers great restaurants, pubs, gift shops, Saturday outdoor markets, churches and so much more, all within walking and biking distance.

New Orleans' French Quarter, Audubon Zoo, Aquariums of the America, The National WWII Museum, even Jazz Fest and Mardi Gras are less then 45 minutes away!

Just want to get away and have a relaxing time? There is no better place than on the large porch where a nice breeze is always blowing from the lake. Enjoy your coffee in the morning and drinks in the evening. Of course, this is our Favorite place!

We enjoy vacationing in quaint little towns with our friends so we decided to purchase a house in our home town to share with others. We can't wait for you to visit. There is no place like Old Mandeville!

This cozy cottage was perfect for our annual Mother's Day weekend! Even though it rained all weekend, we happily stayed indoors playing games and making memories. We will definitely be back to do some bike riding with the bike path right in front and the Trace so close by as well as the lakefront. We enjoyed lunch at Rip's and visiting the historic hardware store and museum in nearby Covington. Our host was very accommodating and informative. Great cottage in the trees!

Lovely, clean home! We especially loved the comfortable beds and relaxing on the porch. It was great to be so close to the lake, and my kids enjoyed going to the nearby playground. Susan was communicative without being intrusive and was a great host.
