This is our second time to stay at Bayou Belle and it was just as awesome as our first visit. Because the water was a little high, the river traffic was almost nothing. The cabin is in a quite, private location, so we simply relaxed on the back patio and watched the wildlife and the river. We got to see a yellow warbler feed her babies and then watched all three take off on their first flight. We saw beautiful egrets and herons, had an alligator hang out at the end of the dock for a bit. The only noise was the bull frogs croaking 24/7. The weather couldn't have been better and the mosquitos were conspicuously absent. We picked up fresh blue crab on our way in and cooked them on the back patio. They were so good that we drove into Morgan City and picked up more to cook before we left. Crawfish were also plentiful, but we can't get fresh crabs in N Louisiana, so we took advantage. We used the grill to cook some steaks one night. This cabin is not for the Hilton Hotel type, but it has everything you need to enjoy the southern Louisiana Bayou Life if you're into it. We will always return to this cabin when we need a fix. The owner is always easy to communicate with and accommodating. I would highly recommend this place if you want the Bayou scene and some R&R.
