Rick and Monica Babbitt are your hosts for a pleasurable and relaxing stay at either our fishing camp or apartment. Monica has had roots here for over 40 years. The fishing camp is on the site of their original camp alongside Petit Caillou Bayou.

Monica is a former nurse, enjoys outdoor activities, gardening, and during your stay can give you a crash course in the basics of cajun cooking.

Rick has been a homebuilder for almost 30 years and their home is a product of his own design. He is also the cook for the traditional seafood boils that their visitors enjoy.

Residing along with Rick and Monica is Sambeau, the neighborhood's resident black Labrador. Sambeau puts new meaning in the word "fetch" by wearing out the thrower long before he gives up. Rounding out the "family" are five wild ducks that don't let you forget when it's time for a handful of corn.

We truly love the area we live in, Cocodrie. It is rich in memories for a lot of the local people, and is making new memories for a new generation. It is a peaceful area, one that you can relax in, enjoy and catch a glimpse of how life on "da bayou" used to be. We hope  you can come and spend some time with us on the island and maybe take a little bit of south Louisiana home with you.
