About this property

Family Ties, Lakefront Retreat on False River, Pier, Sleeps 10

  • Some places you visit. Family Ties is where your family arrives.

    Welcome to Family Ties, a warm and thoughtfully designed waterfront home on beautiful False River — one of Louisiana's most beloved lake destinations. Whether you're three generations under one roof or a family finally carving out time together, this four-bedroom, three-bathroom home sleeping up to 10 was built for exactly this kind of trip.

    THE WATER IS YOUR BACKYARD

    Step outside and False River is right there. A private pier stretches over calm, glassy water — perfect for fishing off the edge, watching the sun go down, or just sitting quietly while the kids wear themselves out. The covered dock has a porch swing, Adirondack chairs, and string lights that make it everyone's favorite spot by the second night. A fire pit faces the water for evenings that tend to run longer than anyone planned.

    PORCHES, PATIOS, AND ROOM TO BREATHE

    The screened porch runs the full back of the house with both a dining table and a full sectional — all looking out over the water. The back patio has outdoor dining, a gas grill, and garden beds that give the whole space a settled, cared-for feel. There's always somewhere to find your people, and always somewhere to slip away quietly with your coffee.

    A KITCHEN MADE FOR REAL MEALS TOGETHER

    The fully equipped kitchen has everything needed to cook for a crowd — full-size appliances, gas range, ample counter space, and a dedicated coffee bar for slower mornings. The dining table seats the whole family, and the open layout means whoever's cooking is never left out of the conversation.

    EVERYONE SLEEPS WELL

    Primary suite — king bed, private en suite with soaking tub and double vanity
    Guest bedroom — king bed, shared full bathroom
    Guest bedroom — queen bed, private en suite
    Bunk room — twin-over-twin and full-over-full bunks, ideal for the younger crowd

    Three full bathrooms mean no one's waiting in line.

    THE DETAILS THAT MATTER

    False River is a natural oxbow lake — calm water, no current, and ideal for families with kids of any age on the water. Local restaurants, grocery stores, and boat launches are minutes away. A dedicated workspace with desk and chair is available for anyone who needs to sneak in a few hours of work. EV charging is available in the carport using an upgraded outlet — Level 1, bring your own cable.

    SUMMER IS HERE

    June and July dates are still available but moving. If your family has been talking about a lake trip, this is the one worth booking.

    We are happy to answer any questions before you book. Family Ties is well cared for and we want your stay to be just as memorable as ours.
