Barataria House | Bayou Life Lodging, Charter Fishing, Ecotourism. Only 25 miles to French Quarter

3 Bedroom House in Barataria

Come live the Louisiana Bayou Life!
Recently picked as the #2 "Magnificent Escapes in Louisiana"!
Only 25 miles to New Orleans' French Quarter and Bourbon Street but worlds away as you sit overlooking one of Louisiana's most famous Bayous. Bayou Barataria which once was the home of Pirate Jean Lafitte. From the largest and nicest decks and docks in the Lafitte/Barataria area you can sit over the water as you take in the beautiful views of the bayou and Bayou Life.
This unique home overlooks the real natural Louisiana bayou and marshes providing the perfect setting to experience the serenity and beauty of the Bayou Life. Don't be fooled by other listings in the area that aren't even near the water or is a house crammed together with many other houses on a man made canal with only other houses as the view. Please check out our views and then compare it to all the others.... there is no comparison.
Our unique place provides direct access to the Bayou for fishing, boating, kayaking, paddle boarding, or just relaxing. From the largest, nicest decks and docks on Bayou Barataria you can truly experience the Bayou Life. Fish and crab from the dock, keep your boat in the water ready to go, or our fishing guides can pick you up from your backdoor. A true Bayou experience!
Bayou Life Charter Fishing offers a complete fishing experience package. Relax, drink your coffee on the dock as the sun rises, and step straight on to the boat. We are at the end of the Lafitte/Barataria area so the boat ride to your fishing hole is that much closer. After booking contact us and we will arrange the perfect fishing and Bayou Life experience. We can set up swamp tours, airboat tours, boating excursions, and sunset wine cruises. We even have unique access to a neighbors softshell crab experience not offered anywhere else. Come for a visit and we can make sure you have a unique, complete Bayou Life experience. We provide crab traps and fishing poles complete with bait to experience catching your own dinner the Bayou Life way. With provided notice we can even bait the traps and set them out prior to your arrival so they can start catching dinner. Each rental will have 5 lbs of jumbo shrimp caught by neighboring fishermen (contact me at booking to reserve). No better way to start off livin’ the Bayou Life than with fresh local jumbo shrimp for dinner.
We strive to provide everything you will need to make your stay wonderful. Home is completely equipped with BBQ, smoker, fire pit, and patio furniture for a relaxing and enjoyable Bayou Life experience. Kitchen is completely stocked with all the pots, pans, utensils, and gadgets you could want as well as an extensive amount of spices, condiments, salad dressings, and much more so you don't have to waste time and money at the grocery store. Even has a boiling pot setup for a traditional Louisiana seafood boil. And if that wasn't enough there are kayaks, a paddle board, crab traps, and fishing poles for your use. We also just added a commercial ice machine for FREE ICE!
If you choose to hit Bourbon Street and do a little partying don't worry about driving....No problem getting to and from the New Orleans French Quarter....I have several Uber drivers on call and ready to take you to and from the New Orleans French Quarter or anywhere in New Orleans at any time of the day or night.
Boat may be kept during your stay in the water tied to the dock. Dock is equipped with ropes, cleats, and bumpers. There is plenty of parking available with additional space if needed on an adjacent lot. You have room to keep several cars and boats on trailers in this area.
The property has two rental units. Each are completely independent and on separate floors. The only shared areas are the outside docks, decks, and patios....there are several docks, decks, and patios providing plenty of room. Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions you may have. For larger groups contact me about using the other unit which sleeps an additional 8 people. If this property is booked or if you want a single unit home please contact me...I have another beautiful home next door that may be of interest to you.

Summary: We had a fantastic stay! Our family truly enjoyed every part of the experience—from fishing and kayaking right off the property to catching crabs for an unforgettable crab boil dinner. The home was comfortable and perfectly located for exploring the local area. We spent our days relaxing outdoors and making great memories together. This is a great place to stay—peaceful, well-equipped, and family-friendly. We’ll definitely be back. Highly recommended!
