Beautiful Lake House w/ Private Pier & Dock, Kayaks, Fishing + Crabbing Gear

Located just 30 minutes from NOLA, Island Girl II is an incredibly special lakeside retreat. Our cheerful 3-BD/2-BA lake house is smartly styled with a modern coastal theme, has bright and airy social areas, comfortable bedrooms, and fantastic outdoor living spaces. Kayaks, fishing & crabbing gear are provided for use on our private pier and dock that sits directly on Lake Catherine. Smart TVs, Wi-Fi, 2 BBQ grills, pro fishing guides and more – we have everything you need for an amazing time!

Inside the home we have a large, modern kitchen with upgraded stainless-steel appliances, a prep island, and dining table for 6 – a perfect space for fish fries and crab boils! Open sightlines from the kitchen to the family living area are an entertainer’s dream, and the outdoor covered patio right off this space was made for lazy days enjoying nothing but free time on the lake. Plan on grilling the catch of the day out here on the propane grill then dining alfresco at our outdoor table with gorgeous lake views as your backdrop.

After spending a long day on the lake, there are 3 beautifully styled bedrooms waiting for you that comfortably accommodate up to 6 guests. Sleeping accommodations are as follows:

Bedroom 1 – King bed
Bedroom 2 – Queen bed
Bedroom 3 – Two twin beds

Outdoor living down by the lake at Island Girl II is amazing, too! Our private pier and dock are the ideal place to fish, crab and soak up some rays when not out in our kayaks on Lake Catherine. Below the home is an additional paved outdoor living space with a charcoal BBQ grill, fish cleaning station, shady picnic spot, and hose for rinsing off.

Bringing your own boat? Easy – launch it at Island Marina just down the road then drive along the shoreline to our pier where you can tie off. And they don’t call this area fisherman’s paradise for nothing! Wrigley’s marina is a very convenient 3 minutes away and they sell live shrimp. We also have great recommendations for local, professional fishing guides to maximize your sporting time on the water. Be sure to inquire if you are interested.

Staying at Island Girl II provides the best of both worlds with a location just 30 minutes from New Orleans and the MS Gulf Coast. Spend the days/nights enjoying the parties, parades and casinos then head back to Island Girl for a relaxing and quiet stay away from the excitement.

Amenity Highlights Include:
- Complimentary unlimited Wi-Fi
- Smart TVs throughout the home
- Dedicated workspace
- Comprehensive housewares package + standard small appliances
- Fresh linens and towels for every guest
- Full-size washer and dryer
- Cargo Elevator

Traveling with a larger group and need more space? We have a nearly identical 3-BD/2-BA home just down the street – ask us about renting both units!

Guest access
All parts of the house, pier and dock are accessible to our guests.

Other things to note
Pet welcome with pre approval and $100.00 pet fee.

We have plenty of space for guest parking including additional family that may visit during your stay.

Our stay at this property was amazing! The view was beautiful we have three teenage boys that fished until the moment left. The property was clean and stocked with everything you needed I felt like I was at home. I would definitely stay here again. The owner is so nice loving, caring and wants to make sure that you are pleased and that I was!!! She is very detailed meaning she has this book in the house that tells you everything about the house to where to get the finest food. Listen trust me don’t pass up the opportunity to stay at this property you can’t go wrong!!! Trust me💕🎉

My family and I enjoyed ourselves here. From sitting outside on the deck or the patio you will have a nice view with a breeze blowing to keep you cool. If you have an issue The host Laurie will get back to you promptly to answer any of your concerns! Oh, and the house will rock you to sleep. If we come back to New Orleans we will be renting from Island Girl I or II again.

1st time to Louisiana
Very clean house and great amenities. About 45 minutes from New Orleans but definitely the safest place to stay. Only issue was that there is actually only 1 shower with 5 people was time consuming. No master bedroom shower. Beds are comfortable and that's hard to find. Communication among management was excellent and they did everything to help us out. A house on stilts does sway in the wind but my kids said it 'Rocked them to sleep' lol. It would have been easier if we could have used the lift for luggage and our cooler but not a deal breaker. It was the best stocked kitchen we have stayed in...best quality and size cooktop pans. Very helpful when cooking for a bigger family. Activities attended..ghost tours, indoor go karts, swamp tour, 3 plantation guided tours- Whitney- more about slavery- favorite, Nottoway- Brock was an awesome guide & Houmas- 600 yr old Oak Trees. A must...Seafood Boil Restaurant.
