We were looking forward to a relaxing long weekend, prior to a three day conference.
And this trip was just what we needed. The local Cajun food in Scott was wonderful. And everything was perfect with the house.
We shall return!! All 5-Stars

Loved our stay at The Castle. The well thought out decor and amenities made us feel so at home. Wonderfully restored old home for a small family vacation in the heart of Louisiana or hiding away on your own. Look forward to visiting again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend at The Castle! It is a wonderful old house, with so many original features. The owner has done a great job decorating and making it both functional and comfortable. Set in a peaceful area, it is just made for porch-sitting! Thank you so much for sharing this home.

It’s was a very eclectic and cozy property! Very authentic and cozy. We happened to be there during unprecedented cold snap and it was a little cool due to age of home! The homeowner made extra arrangements to ensure we were cozy! I appreciated the efforts! Would be super fun in summer nice outdoor open areas for fun!

We had a very comfortable stay at the Castle in Scott, LA. It’s a great place to enjoy an old well appointed cottage with all the amenities of modern life. The privacy and seclusion of the property is most attractive to us - and great to escape the stresses of city life. We’ll definitely be back again - and we hope very soon….

Parents Get Away Trip
Such a fun property!! The history that this little house holds is such a treasure. I love that the property owners have the bill of sale on display and so many other neat little pieces, it truly feels as if you are stepping back through time. We woke up one morning to the neighbors working a herd of cattle on horse back. You definitely will not regret booking this cute little house.

We fell in Love with this place. So much history everywhere you looked. Beautifully decorated and had everything you could possibly need. We loved the peace and quiet of the location. It was close to so many attractions. It was close enough to town if you needed anything, but far enough away for peace and quiet. The property is so beautiful and we loved the porches. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was fantastic. Thank you for allowing us to stay.

Charming house with cajun flair and great creature comforts. Enjoyed the closeness to all the local antique shops and the food in the surrounding area. We were greeted each morning with a red bird knocking at the kitchen window. LOVED our stay!

Our host did everything necessary to ensure that we (dog included)had a fun two week vacation at The Castle. We took advantage of his suggestions for getting to know the area, eating at great restaurants and relaxing on a beautiful rural property. We appreciated Jared’s prompt responses to our questions and attention to details in our home. We recommend the rental to anyone who appreciates restoration and upkeep of historical properties.

First the pros. Quiet neighborhood and serene, tastefully decorated nice comfortable king bed, backyard was nice, rain shower was a bonus, did not use hid-a-bed or stove. Now the cons, no password available for internet, toilet overflowed no plunger available had to go out and buy one, no instructions about what to do with trash no outside can available, stove was dirty with food around burners, refrigerator dirty inside . Front door to home had 3/8 inch gap around door that allowed the air to flow threw it, glass top table was dirty on bottom of glass. No # available to contact maintenance or owner, check-in book incomplete .

The Castle was perfect for our family Thanksgiving celebration. While dinner was cooking, everyone enjoyed the huge back porch overlooking the patio and the scenic, peaceful pasture. Our granddaughters loved the swing. This awesome historical home was spacious with beautiful décor and a great kitchen. This will be our home away from home when visiting family in Louisiana!

It was like staying in a museum house that helps you learn what it was like for people who lived in the 1800s - except it also had modern conveniences! We also enjoyed relaxing on the back porch. The location was perfect - the neighborhood was quiet and off the beaten track but we were a short ride from various activities. Jared was always quickly responsive to any questions we had. I highly recommend this property.

The Castle was the perfect weekend getaway. The pictures don't do it justice. It's even better than we expected. We loved the decor, the amazing back porch, and great kitchen. It was the perfect home away from home.

Weekend with family
We had a lovely stay at this charming home.
Easy access to Lafayette and the interstate.
Perfect outdoor space for our boys to explore.
The kitchen and the oven are divine. Was the perfect place for my mom to make Gumbo and invite our local family over to visit.

We loved the house and the location was great! The Castle was a great story teller for sure and the pictures no way touched the history until you arrived to see in person. It was decorated beautifully and enhanced the age of the home. Living in Louisiana you learn to live with the hot and humidity as they go hand in hand but sitting on the back porch there was a nice breeze to enjoy the scenery and didn’t really notice that it was touch warm outside. The Castle is definitely one to visit again!
