Waterfront Slidell Home on Bayou w/ Dock & Tie Up!

Sneak away to 'Pelican Palms,' a Slidell 2-bed, 2-bath house, for a relaxing Louisiana retreat! Nestled off of Lake Pontchartrain, this waterfront vacation rental offers the best of Louisiana bayou living, with easy access to fishing, boating, and beaches. The home is also 28 miles from New Orleans’ French Quarter - where you'll find haunted tours, beignets, and music. But you can also prefer to relax in the enclosed patio or on the furnished balcony - watching sunsets and wildlife pass by. -- THE PROPERTY -- Master Bedroom: Queen Bed | Bedroom 2: 2 Twin Beds When you want to escape the city, retreat to this bayou chic abode, complete with all of the comforts of home and more! It's the perfect place to come for rejuvenation and relaxation - where earth meets water, where time slows, and the moon seems brighter down on the bayou. Wake up to waterfront views and end the day with them too on one of the home's several outdoor spaces! The French Quarter-style, wraparound balcony provides a birds-eye-view of the lazy water below while the patio is perfect for getting up close with local wildlife like seagrass fish, crabs, and the occasional alligator. If you prefer to stay cool, lounge in the air-conditioned glass-enclosed patio, catching up with your loved ones and admiring the natural scenery visible through the numerous windows. Multiple updates have been made to the property, including a new wrap-around porch, new deck boards on the balcony, new dimmable LED lights for the balcony, and 2 new leather recliners! Inside, you'll find amenities such as a Smart TV, complimentary wireless internet connection, and plush furnishings - altogether providing the ultimate getaway. Even better, the fully equipped kitchen, complete with stainless steel appliances and a center island, makes home-cooking as simple as the sea breeze. Finish the day with a glass of wine and crawfish tails, experiencing a truly extraordinary bayou sunset. When the stars arrive, return inside for a soothing hot shower in the full bathroom and a restful night's sleep in the master bedroom's queen bed. The second bedroom with 2 twin beds is perfect for the children of the group. -- THE LOCATION -- Vacation begins as you arrive at 'Pelican Palms,' located on the bank of a Lake Pontchartrain bayou! The dock lets you enjoy instant access to all of your favorite pastimes, like fishing and boating, while the location in a peaceful Slidell neighborhood lets you escape the hustle and bustle of city life. Spend your time perfecting your tan on North Shore Beach, found just a short stroll up the street. After a day in the sun, replenish your energy with a hearty feast from Phil's Marina Cafe or Middendorf's Slidell, both only minutes away. Additional restaurants in the area include The Blind Tiger Slidell, and Southside Cafe! When you're up for a change of scenery, travel just 30 minutes south to New Orleans! 'The Big Easy' is sure to cater to all of your cravings with live music at Tippy Tina's, fresh beignets from Cafe Du Monde, nightlife on Bourbon Street, and haunted tours in the above-ground tomb cemeteries. Travel just a little farther for adventures on the Mississippi Gulf Coast - where you'll find white sand beaches and lavish casinos. Outdoor enthusiasts will love an airboat swamp tour adventure or a hike along the 31-mile Tammany Trace Rail-Trail.
