Cancellation Policy: One hundred percent (100.00%) of the total booking charges will be refunded if the cancellation is made more than 30 days prior to the arrival date of the reservation. For cancellations made within 30 days prior to the arrival date, no refund will be issued.

Parking is available for up to 1 regular-sized vehicle only, on-site. There is a parking lot before the property that you can park any extra vehicles at and carpool from. Contact me with any questions before booking. During the months the water is low, you will have 2 sets of stairs to walk down. You, your kids, and/or your pets must be able to make the walk. Also, consider the amount of luggage you will have. It's about 50 steps. There is a $30 pet fee. There is no wifi available due to the levee and OSCHA requirements. Cell service is great for hotspots, however!

I'm a mother of 4 grown kids so it's just myself, my new hubby & our fur babies! I, Lacey, was just about to wrap up building Bruiser when Tony caught wind of it and just had to come see it for himself. A few months later he proposed to me at Bruiser! And so the story begins! Shortly following was the barn, then houseboat, then camper and most recently the purchase of more water front property for even more rentals located just moments before the bus and boat! Hoo-Rah!

West monroe, Louisiana

3 kayaks, 1 Paddleboats, and several fishing poles are free to use. They are shared with other guests, so we cant guarantee availability. If it has been windy, we will lock them inside the cabin, but will happily get them out for you if you would like to use them.
