About this property
Beautiful Lake House w/ Private Pier & Dock, Kayaks, Fishing + Crabbing Gear
Located just 30 minutes from NOLA, Island Girl II is an incredibly special lakeside retreat. Our cheerful 3-BD/2-BA lake house is smartly styled with a modern coastal theme, has bright and airy social areas, comfortable bedrooms, and fantastic outdoor living spaces. Kayaks, fishing & crabbing gear are provided for use on our private pier and dock that sits directly on Lake Catherine. Smart TVs, Wi-Fi, 2 BBQ grills, pro fishing guides and more – we have everything you need for an amazing time!
Inside the home we have a large, modern kitchen with upgraded stainless-steel appliances, a prep island, and dining table for 6 – a perfect space for fish fries and crab boils! Open sightlines from the kitchen to the family living area are an entertainer’s dream, and the outdoor covered patio right off this space was made for lazy days enjoying nothing but free time on the lake. Plan on grilling the catch of the day out here on the propane grill then dining alfresco at our outdoor table with gorgeous lake views as your backdrop.
After spending a long day on the lake, there are 3 beautifully styled bedrooms waiting for you that comfortably accommodate up to 6 guests. Sleeping accommodations are as follows:
Bedroom 1 – King bed Bedroom 2 – Queen bed Bedroom 3 – Two twin beds
Outdoor living down by the lake at Island Girl II is amazing, too! Our private pier and dock are the ideal place to fish, crab and soak up some rays when not out in our kayaks on Lake Catherine. Below the home is an additional paved outdoor living space with a charcoal BBQ grill, fish cleaning station, shady picnic spot, and hose for rinsing off.
Bringing your own boat? Easy – launch it at Island Marina just down the road then drive along the shoreline to our pier where you can tie off. And they don’t call this area fisherman’s paradise for nothing! Wrigley’s marina is a very convenient 3 minutes away and they sell live shrimp. We also have great recommendations for local, professional fishing guides to maximize your sporting time on the water. Be sure to inquire if you are interested.
Staying at Island Girl II provides the best of both worlds with a location just 30 minutes from New Orleans and the MS Gulf Coast. Spend the days/nights enjoying the parties, parades and casinos then head back to Island Girl for a relaxing and quiet stay away from the excitement.
Amenity Highlights Include: - Complimentary unlimited Wi-Fi - Smart TVs throughout the home - Dedicated workspace - Comprehensive housewares package + standard small appliances - Fresh linens and towels for every guest - Full-size washer and dryer - Cargo Elevator
Traveling with a larger group and need more space? We have a nearly identical 3-BD/2-BA home just down the street – ask us about renting both units!
Guest access All parts of the house, pier and dock are accessible to our guests.
Other things to note Pet welcome with pre approval and $100.00 pet fee.
We have plenty of space for guest parking including additional family that may visit during your stay.

Great place to stay had a great time it was so relaxing and we caught fish! Everything is excellent owners are very nice would recommend and we will be back soon!!
Beautiful home, well stocked with amenities for a comfortable stay. We loved having the crab pots, all equipment for a boil, kayaks, pack n play, etc. Thank you!
This was an amazing trip! The house was clean and well equipped. The hosts had thought of everything! They were responsive and so helpful. We loved the entire experience and will be back!
Perfect get away. House was everything we had hoped it would be. All you need is your clothes. They had everything else. The dock and pier were in excellent shape. We were able to dock our boat there the whole time. Would highly recommend staying there.
This property is a great location for locals to get away on vacation without the hassle of hours of travel. Very clean and spacious house with all amenities you could possibly need. We had a very relaxing visit.
We really enjoyed the sunrises. We pretty much experienced every kind of weather the week we were there. The days that were clear had glorious sunrises with lots of pelicans and seagulls.
We had a great time. Beautiful place and views. Crabs weren’t running but we still had fun trying to catch them. Owner is very quick to respond with any and all questions or concerns.
This property was absolutely amazing! The location was perfect! The property was clean and very well kept! The owner has literally provided any and everything you can think of! We will DEFINITELY be back! 10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
Our family had a camp growing up on the lake, so to be able to experience it all over again with the next generation was nothing short of amazing. The property was beautiful and the views never get old. We would definitely love to rent Island Girl again in the future!
House was clean! Perfect place for our family to escape the Sugar Bowl craziness at night for peace and quite.
Close enough for a 20 minute drive to the festivities. Didnt even get to utilize the best part of the place. The dock.
The Island Girl 2 is a beautiful home right on Lake Catherine. Everything you could need or want, beautifully maintained, with excellent communication by the owner. We brought the grands & the boat for Spring Break and spent our time on Lake Catherine & Lake Pontchatrain not catching any fish but what a great time we had. We boiled crawfish on the spacious downstairs patio, bar-b-qued & ate on the beautiful deck overlooking the lake.The whole house was very clean and very comfortable with every thing needed to cook all our meals right there at the house. Plenty of room for the 5 of us to spread out & not feel crowded.Because of the weather/wind we weren't able to dock the boat at the house the entire time but were able to dock it for lunch & potty breaks while out on the lake during the days. We tried night fishing at the end of the pier but, again, the weather made the lake very muddy so no fish. Still not complaining though.Would definitely visit again and recommend this beautiful camp to anyone looking to get away from it all. Ten Stars!!
The host was very helpful and accommodating. The house was very well stocked with necessary supplies. This is a place we would definitely reserve again.
Such a great experience! It was a beautiful and unique setting. House was very clean and well appointed. We loved the dock and beautiful view. We would definitely stay here again!
