Water-front property on a nature preserve. What could be better!
The property was even nicer than we hoped - clean, comfortable, well-maintained. The sunrise view over the nature preserve was quite spectacular! Would definitely stay again.

Exactly as pictured!
Lovely views and very clean. My only complaint would be the lack of freshness of the towels - they needed to be washed with softener and dried completely. We did that ourselves. Otherwise, it was great!

Birthday getaway
The home was clean and cozy. Im one that has the horrible habit of falling asleep to the noise of a TV. There were no tvs in the bedrooms, but I used my tablet. Worked out fine. The view of the lake was especially beautiful to wale up to. The restaurants suggested by host were delicious and good customer service. Nearly an hour drive to the city, but this made our getaway that more unique. We had the best of both worlds on this New Orleans vacay. Camp David delivered!

Perfect Bayou Getaway
If you are looking for clean, simple, comfortable getaway this place is it! The property is convenient to Mandeville and Slidell. One of the best restaurants, Sal and Judy's is right around the corner. We enjoyed the access to the water, fishing off the dock and the cute river otter that stopped for a visit.

Bliss on the bayou
Camp David is a wonderful home situated on Bayou Lacombe. It's location puts you within 15 minutes of either Slidell or Pearl River or you can drive to Metairie or New Orleans in about 45 minutes. The home is spacious and extremely comfortable. Our bed was great and every night was restful.
