Cute and cozy
Great day trip to fish although the fish weren’t biting. We celebrated my dad’s 80th birthday with a small group. It was perfect place for storing and serving food. Had the feel of a full size home. Lots of space outside. The deck was a lovely space to sit and socialize, with good shade.

Terrible handling of a technical problem
We had booked this tiny house for a night of rest before a bicycle race. When we arrived, around 9.30pm, the door would not unlock. The door was misaligned and the automatic unlocking mechanism was stuck. After 10 minutes on the phone with the property manager, he said he would upgrade us to another house in the same area (10 minutes drive). Technical problems like this can happen and communication with the property manager was okay up to this point. When we arrived at the new house, the door was locked and the property manager would not answer his phone anymore. After several attempts, leaving voice mails, text messages, ... we decided to find a hotel. The whole thing cost us almost 2 hours. Totally unacceptable and unprofessional way of handling the situation. The property manager finally got back to us after 11pm, offering a free stay in the future, but no official email about this... Vrbo help line was not super efficient either, but they said they would issue a full refund. 4 days later, I'm still waiting on my refund to post. My first booking with Vrbo might also be my last one.

Nice Tiny Home!
Our code for check in did not work. The number for the agency in New Roads did not recognize the name I was needing help to get into. The VRBO updated the code and then it worked. 3 of the dresser drawers were broken but all else was great. I was grateful it was not wet weather because the driveway might have been a problem.

Nice place, Wrong Location
The little house was nice, but where it is located makes it feel sketchy. The location isn't ideal at all. The driveway is small and it was hard to see the house due to the tree blocking the view. All in all, it served the purpose for us to sleep, we just wish the location would have been different.

A little piece of heaven!
We so enjoyed the tiny house. Just enough space for a quiet weekend get away. Thomas was an amazing host. Quick to respond and answer any questions we had. The tiny house was well equipped with everything we needed from kitchen utensils and pots to plenty of towels in the bathroom. The neighborhood was very peaceful as well. We would so stay again!

First of all this was a very clean, well equipped "tiny house". Everything was new and in good working order. It was a quiet, cozy comfortable getaway. That said, you need to understand going in that it is not a lake front or even lake view property. It is lake adjacent. False river itself is beautiful, but you have to take a short (about a mile) drive to take in that view. Bottom line, if you are looking to just get away on your own it is a great value. If on the other hand you are looking for a Norman Rockwell setting, it's not for you.

Cozy and Quiet getaway!
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our little quiet weekend getaway before the craziness of the school year began. Everything was so well kept and clean. My favorite part of the trip was sitting on the patio listening to all of nature’s little creatures. There was a Dollar General conveniently located right around the corner for us to grab a few things that we forgot and needed. We definitely plan on bringing our kids and staying longer to utilize the concierge serves and renting a boat to take on the River.

This house was great for a quick get away for my family. It's got one large bed and sofa/living/kitchen room along with a nice bathroom. The whole house is well done. Checkin and checkout was a breeze. Great management group as well.

Nice quiet weekend in beautiful New Roads, LA
This property is very well done. The tiny house gives you a feel of having a very large suite that has its own private deck. The appliances are top of the line and everything is for the tech savvy and Apple users. The bed was very comfortable and we weren't aware of the other moving around or getting up. We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood. Unfortunately, there isn't much water in the bayou behind the house and we didn't feel comfortable going across the street so no fishing. The only real surprise was the coffee pot. It was a camp stove top coffee pot in the midst of all this stainless steel smart stuff! Thank God for Google because neither of us had used this type of coffee pot before. I contacted Thomas twice and he responded quickly both times. Problems solved quickly as well. We enjoyed our stay and we plan to return again in the summer!

Quiet comfort
It is definitely a little house. Large porch. There really isn’t anything exciting to say about it. It’s just a small out of the way house. It was very quiet at night. In fact we never saw a neighbor or anyone even driving down the road. The only issues we had was the weren’t towels or washcloths. We contacted Mr. Schumacher and he got some to us within a few minutes. Also the microwave is very different than ours and stopped working after the 1st use. No idea why. Couldn’t get it to come on again? Maybe a breaker but we were warming a cup of coffee on the way out so I didn’t investigate.
