Cabin in Carriere

We loved our time at the Cabin! We enjoyed the kayaks and lake that we had a beautiful view of from the cabin. It was very roomy for 6 people and very remote. Super peaceful and would definitely recommend!

Lovely getaway

The house was better than expected with a screened porch & deck for grilling. It was just right for two couples traveling together. It was a great home base while we visited the area. We will be back!

Family weekend

We had a wonderful time reconnecting with family while in town for a cousin’s bridal shower. We played games and laughed about old times on the screened in porch.

Really nice place to stay.

We used this house a home base for a family work trip. It was perfect for needs. Check in and out was easy and accomidating. We have no complaints. We did not use the lake amenities during this trip due to work scheduled, but they look like fun. The screen porch was great to have as extra space.

Awesome spot an hour from N.O.

Me and my 3 kids had a great time. Kayak and canoe were top of the list. Also they loved using the real fireplace while placing board games. Very peaceful and relaxing. We truly enjoyed it.

Prefect way to spend the holidays

We actually ended up staying at this owner's other property, "The Cottage" which is a few houses down from "Bass Ranch". The booking didn't get updated with VRBO. We absolutely loved staying at the cottage for the holidays! We have family that lives within 15 miles of Anchor Lake, so they were able to come out and hang with us quite a bit. Everyone from our 8 year old son, to our late teen and early twenties nieces and nephews, and even my 76 year old mother in law loved hanging out at the lake house. We had a great time by the fire pit, sitting on the dock, fishing, paddle boating, flying kites, playing games, enjoying family meals, and just being together. This place is prefect for family fun! Tammie and Brock were superb hosts! From the initial booking process, to checking in during the stay, they were always very responsive and helpful. They also had the place decorated so cute for the holidays! That made it so much more special. I highly recommend any property they own, but the Cottage will forever hold a special place in my heart for the memories we made there!

Poor location for fishing, big spider!!

Sounded like a great spot to fish out the backyard, but not so much. The fishing is horrible there. Ur in a little horseshoe of the lake that gets hardly any good fishing and is over populated with turtles. Nothing nearby for food. The communication with the property manager was great until I complained about the huge brown recluse i found in the family room. Then she stopped responding. The beds are incredibly uncomfortable and very dated. Prolly time to upgrade on comfort for your guests. DONT rent, go somewhere else.

After Christmas Visit

Very cute and well maintained. Lake area was a little disappointing, very wet and swampy. An information journal on the house would be helpful. We searched for a lot of items without success; iron, hairdryer, etc. All said, it was a very nice stay.

Our saving grace

We rented this property after our house was torn apart by hurricane ida. Tammie could not have been more amazing. The property is well kept and it was the perfect place to relax. The atmosphere is cozy and had ample room for my two daughters, sister in law, and nephew. You won’t be disappointed staying at this property or any others that Tammie owns. I will definitely book with her again! Next time it’ll be under better circumstances.

Awesome!!!

We wanted a home a little out from town and on water, this covered all of our wants and needs. There are stores and food places within 15 miles or less. The kids loved kayaking, swimming and the ducks. Tammie is an awesome host and everything we needed other than clothes and food was there. We would stay here again for sure and will recommend it to family and friends.

Extraordinary Experience!!!

I lucked up on this gem while surfing the web for the perfect last minute family vacation! Tammie was so awesome!!! I am not the type of person that typically writes reviews, but I was compelled to share this extraordinary experience with the world. This property is peaceful, relaxing, full of fun things to do, and just down right beautiful. The hostess, Tammie, was just the perfect compliment to this perfect property. She was so helpful and friendly that I will literally rent any property that has her name attached to it from now on. Everyone in my family had an awesome time. Thank you Tammie, my family and I wish you nothing but continued success!

Cozy with a side of fish!

The home was better than expected. The inside and the porches are wonderful! Everything was spotless and very well decorated with comfort in mind! We cooked every night and had absolutely everything that we needed there! The host was exceptional and her and her husband went out of their way to make our stay great! Our kids had a wonderful time and we all caught bass and catfish out on the lake each day. The water way/canal in back of the house was shallow and our kids enjoyed swimming there. The owners mentioned adding some sand out back where the water access is and that would make it perfect for the kids! We really have no complaints and had a great time! The ducks were an added bonus! This place was perfect for our 3 night stay!

Relaxation and comfort

We will be definitely staying here again. We didn’t want to leave. The comfort of this place was amazing. The bonus part was being able to fish out the back yard and enjoy boating and fishing in the amazing lake. We swam all evening right by the camp. Great place for all age groups. The camp was clean, had everything we needed and any questions we had were answered very quickly.
