Great place, highly recommend!!
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 Jon & Phyllis

The sweetest place!
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!

Peaceful Retreat
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.

Why they chose this property

Read the Reviews! Definitely worth the stay!

What makes this property unique

The home is a perfect twist of historic structure with modern fixings. It's carefully decorated with unique pieces that connect to the Louisiana Cajun culture. It was used for the filming of the GMC Sierra commercial in 2016!

Also check out our other VRBO vacation stay - Paul's Studio located in downtown Scott at The Old Bank of Scott where I currently reside after an extensive remodel.
