The living room area is set up for whatever you are in the mood for. If you're just looking to lounge, it has a lot of seating. Furnished with a couch & loveseat, padded chairs, and swivel mounted TV to service the room from any angle. If you "know when to hold'em and know when to fold'em" while enjoying a cold libation then this room is for you too because, in addition to the plush seating, it is also furnished with a card table & chairs(10), an antique dry bar, and a unique bistro pub table with stools. You'll find several board games in the coffee table storage. (Video games upstairs in The Crow's Nest)

WHERE YOUR CREW WILL EXPERIENCE SPORTSMAN'S PARADISE

Outdoor just steps from the water, you'll find a picnic table and benches, covered patio area, hammock, fire ring, large unique charcoal grill, and sink area. Please excuse the unfinished siding on the patio addition as we are still bouncing back from the hurricanes. Louisiana Strong! Also we keep a fish cleaning table out by the water which is protected from the sun by a patio umbrella while you clean your daily catch.
