Once again it was perfect. I can’t review how great this place really is as I want to be able to rebook for next year!! This was our second stay here and it was brilliant. However if you want somewhere with internet this isn’t for you, but if you want peace and quiet and a magnificent location, then this is for you
The floating apartment was beautifully presented and very clean. Our stay was very enjoyable. The owner had kindly provided food for us, which was much appreciated.
I would recommend this outstanding place to stay.
We were looking for a place to relax and unwind, and this was the perfect spot. The host was in communication with me from the beginning with helpful hints and check in instructions. We will definitely be looking forward to our next trip.
This is a great place to relax and enjoy nature. The marina next door has boat traffic in and out, but it didn’t bother us. There was music playing Friday evening, but you could only hear it outside on the deck. We enjoyed our stay and we would love to visit again.
The Slip Away was the weekend get-away that I did not know I needed. Every aspect of this cozy lake property was superb. It was the perfect place to unwind, do some fishing, and enjoy the scenery. I will definitely visit again!
We loved loved Absolutely loved this property!!! We honestly wished we had booked more nights. The owner was extremely helpful and so welcoming! This place had everything And was just adorable. Highly highly recommend!!! We can’t wait to stay again. Very clean, had everything you could want, just perfect. So peaceful.
This is one of our favorite stays. The house and the location was perfect. Open space with tons of windows and extremely clean. Great kitchen space with everything you need, nice living area with comfortable couch, nice spacious bath with washer and dryer, comfortable bed and of course a beautiful view from the dock. Definitely recommend.
The house did not disappoint! It was cozy, immaculate, and the views were breathtaking! It was a perfect spot for a few days of rest and relaxation. We hope to return again in the future!
We really enjoyed our stay at Slip Away. The views of the lake were great. The decor was cute and the cabin had everything we needed. The bed was comfortable. Captain Joe was easy to communicate with and always gave great suggestions for the area. We highly recommend anyone stay here.

We loved the privacy and peace and quiet of this beautiful place. The owner was wonderful and had the home stocked with almost everything you could want.
Nice covered patio to sit on and set out lines for fishing (caught 2 catfish) i would highly recommend to anyone that needs a little getaway 😀
Really great views and access to the lake and river. Feels remote, but still was close to grocery stores if feeling the urge to stay in and not go anywhere! Very nice sunsets and kayaking around the lake was a nice experience. Host is very communicative but not overly so - just right!
Enjoyed our stay very much. Unfortunately it had rained a lot but our host made sure we could get in by putting a ramp up so we could access the property. Very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed sitting on the porch while watching the rain, birds and the water. Would definitely recommend.
The cabin was just perfect. Close enough to town but far enough away to enjoy the quiet. Capt Joe was very attentive to the walkway, as they had quite a bit of rain prior to our arrival and areas were flooded. Would highly recommend this property for anyone looking to be on water. to our atrival
Love ❤️ the water 💦, and this little floating cabin was just the thing to totally relax and enjoy peace and quiet.
Just perfect for recharging your mind and body.
The town of Monroe La. was really cute too!!
Had great food ! Downtown had Christmas Lights.
Overall a great getaway!!
Wonderful waterfront property. Everything you need is right there. Very clean and awesome decor. Loved sitting on the deck and fishing. Joe was a great host and took real good care of us. Can't wait to return.
I recently enjoyed a truly unforgettable stay at this floating apartment, and I can’t say enough good things about the experience. Waking up each morning to the stunning, unobstructed waterfront view was nothing short of magical. The sunset shimmering across the water surface, the beautiful wildlife, and the scenery made the stay extraordinary.What really set this place apart, though, were the thoughtful touches. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a generously provided spaghetti and sauce dinner — such a warm and considerate gesture after a day of travel. It made us feel immediately welcomed and at home.The apartment itself was spotless, beautifully designed, and perfectly equipped for a relaxing getaway. If you’re looking for a unique, serene, and genuinely delightful stay, this floating apartment is an absolute gem. I can’t wait to come back!
