Da Camp on Amite River

This is a perfect spot if you want to have a quiet and relaxing time away. The location is perfectly situated a little over an hour from both Baton Rouge and New Orleans. While getting there, you will drive down a 2 mile gravel road that's peacefully lined with trees and swamp before it meets the pavement to the neighborhood. Once you enter the neighborhood, you will instantly feel at ease and in vacation mode. When you walk upstairs, you will be greeted by the Amite River and serene trees. Walking through the front door, you will be delighted to see the open space of the kitchen, dining and living room that invites togetherness. If anyone needs time away, you will find any of the 3 bedrooms will provide ample space. The master bedroom provides a queen sized bed and a full bathroom that has a shower/tub combo. The second bedroom has bunk beds where the bottom bunk has a queen sized bed while the upper bunk is a twin. The third bedroom has two twin beds. The two bedrooms share the hall bathroom which provides plenty of space and a bath/tub combo.

There is plenty of outdoor seating on the upper and low patio. You will find that this house is perfect for reading, playing games or any assortment of outdoor activities. At the property, you will find a one person canoe and kayak with paddles and lifejackets. There is a boat dock attached to the house which provides easy access in and out of the water, as well as, a place to hook up your boat. The neighborhood provides a boat launch, so feel free to bring your boat and enjoy a ride!

Even better then expected
My family was looking for a peaceful place to reconnect as a family. This house was perfect. Michelle was a wonderful host from the day I booked our reservation. She reached out and offered suggestions for things to do. We went on a swamp tour with Skell’s Outdoor Adventures at her suggestion and I highly recommend that as well! He is a really great guy and we had an awesome time! The only thing we can say about the actual house is that the master bedroom windows could use some shades or full curtains. It’s really bright in the morning and woke us up early after staying up late. FYI, watch out for boaters on the River. We had an unfortunate experience with a boater who zoomed by way too close to the dock and pulled both of my husbands fishing poles in the water. He offered to help or pay for them and then we never saw him again. We did recover one pole, but the other one is somewhere in the river still. If anyone fishes a pole out, let me know @ aferg0931@gmail.com. That had nothing to do with Michelle or the house, though. And she was super sweet when I told her what happened, offering to help however she could. I highly recommend this house and would love to make this a regular vacation spot for my family.

Nice stay in Ascension Parish
We stayed here on holiday for 6 days and it was perfect. It's a really beautiful place to spend some resting time with family. We've done a lot of activities between Baton Rouge and New Orleans and maybe did not take enough time to enjoy the house and the neighborhood. We could certainly stay here for much longer. The only issue for me is that the mattress was really too soft and I've got back pain. But then I always enjoyed my cup of coffee on a rocking chair along the river and I was ready for the day. Thanks for sharing your house.

Nice and roomy
We loved staying in Michelle's beautiful 3 bedroom house in French settlement Louisiana. I loved the porch swing. My 11 year old has lots of fun learning how to fish with her pawpaw. My 21 year old flew down and stayed for a couple nights and met her 26 year old aunt and they had a great time time in New Orleans. We had a little issue with the electronic lock on the property but Michelle and her husband were extremely apologetic and took care of the issue quickly and professionally. We would stay there again. Thank you for letting us stay at your beautiful house.

Peaceful getaway. Beautiful views of the river. Plenty of space to spread out. Outdoor living areas on upstairs deck, the ground level and the dock are amazing. Good fishing from the dock. Exactly as advertised. Great communication with Michelle.

Great getaway
Really nice property with beautiful views. Really close to diversion canal. Super quiet other than all the boat traffic on weekends. Great dock for fishing during the week. Great for families that are quiet. Most of the neighbors are not as friendly as I’m used to because I only live an hour away. Overall great quiet getaway.
