Perfect location for a weekend or extended get away.

This home is the perfect location for a weekend or exteded get away and within walking distance to some restaurants and shops. The home was very clean and comfortable with plenty of amenities for our group of six. The neighborhood felt safe and within a short walking distance to Millennuim Park, which is nicely ligthted for an evening stroll. We even met some of the neighbors who were super friendly. We will definitely book this home once again when we return to Lake Charles.

Relieving, and relaxing experience!

We couldn’t have been more relieved (via my brother-in-law’s searching efforts) to find Olive Bayou! Selecting Lake Charles as a last minute add-on to our vacation was topped off perfectly with this beautiful and comfortable vrbo choice! After frustrations of not finding a hotel room, and not knowing a location and area to settle on, our weekend stay was a Huge positive with this choice! Would highly recommend and definitely stay here again! Thank you for sharing Olive Bayou!

Amazing!! Perfectly stocked house

I usually look for places with kitchens to cook some meals when away from home. Most of the time, I am disappointed with not having enough pans, silverware, etc. The host thought of everything! My son asked if I packed qtips, and sadly I did not. Then we found them in the bathroom! Every host should stock the house the way this host does! The house was clean, a nice quiet area downtown. It was just a wonderful time.

Girls trip

This is my second stay at Home 4 U! I cannot say enough great things about this place!! Spotless cleaning- beautiful decor and ambiance. Perfect stay for 4-6 ppl. The beds and pillow are excellent. Bathrooms are spotless with plenty of white fluffy towels. Kitchen and dining area-roomy & just the right size. Coffee provided was a big plus! I love walking in an Airbnb where all you smell is freshness and no lingering odors!! When time permits, I will definitely book a longer stay!! Highly recommend for couples, friends or families!! Location great!!

Fun Stop on way home from Seaside

The girls and I absolutely loved your home! So clean and so homey. Of course, the girls could not get enough of the kitties that live around the property and although it was short, we managed to make the most of our stay. Also, I wanted to take your pillows home with me…haha. So comfy! Thank you for having us! We really enjoyed it!!! It was perfect!

Great experience

I had a fantastic experience staying at Home 4 U at Olive Bayou. From the moment I booked, the host was incredibly responsive and made sure all of my questions were answered promptly.The place was exactly as described — clean, cozy, and in a great location. It’s clear they really care about their guests. I had forgotten something and luckily it was found and the host worked with me to retrieve it. They are honest and were more than happy to help me. Highly recommend this host and their property to anyone looking for a stress-free, enjoyable stay!
