Visit this unique and tranquil getaway. Situated on 8 plus acres along the banks of the Bayou Teche and on the lush grounds of the historic Albania Mansion, this cottage has everything you need for a peaceful getaway to Acadiana. A short drive to everywhere you want to be and yet a destination unto itself. Choose to explore the region or settle in and enjoy grounds that have been visited by John James Audubon, Elvis Presley, and Marilyn Monroe. Follow their footsteps or create your own path….

The space
This is a two bedroom two bath cottage. Each bedroom has a small private balcony porch overlooking the grounds. The main area is a large living room/ dining room combination with a small kitchen that has all the amenities you need. The cottage has a beautiful wrap around porch with a swing. From the porch you can see the mansion, a beautiful landscaped fountain, and the bayou. There is a bird aviary with pea fowl and ornamental pheasants, a green house, gazebo, and more.

Guest access
This cottage is all yours during your stay. You also have access to the entire eight and half acre grounds. If the mansion is available you can enjoy a tour. Arrangements can also be made for captained pontoon boat rides down the bayou and for seafood boils and other experiences.

Other things to note
This property is situated along the banks of the Bayou Teche. As such, there is wildlife galore. You may see alligators, snakes, bald eagles, egrets, blue herons, and great horned owls during your stay. Although the cottage is pet friendly, you will need to protect your pets by keeping them leashed while wandering the grounds. Children are also welcome but the bayou and the pond require constant vigilance.
