Stay at The Bird
Out here in Southwest Louisiana… things move a little different. Music drifts. Stories stick. Nights run long. Mornings come easy. If you’re looking for something polished, this might not be your place. But if you don’t mind a little night air, a little sound on the wind, and a place that’s still alive… you might feel right at home here.

This was a unique stay! Jim went out of his way to accommodate us last minute, even altering his plans to be there on our arrival. And we’re so glad he was, what a wonderful host! He showed us the property, which came alive even more with his presence. We didn’t get a chance to meet Christy, but hopefully next time. The beds were comfy, kitchen had everything we needed, I enjoyed sitting out on the porch and meeting the cats. This is the place for you if you like a little artistic, unique adventure off the beaten path. Thank you both!

Admirers of Folk Art make up a certain kind of tribe. This tribe will love the Folk Art Barn. People that love Cajun Music will love the Folk Art Barn. People that love nature will love the Folk Art Barn. People that appreciate the commitment of folk artists to take one person's trash and make it into another person's treasure will love the Folk Art Barn. I heard the call of a yellow-billed cuckoo and saw an owl in the rafters and a coyote table that could talk. I appreciate people who devote themselves to a life filled with art like Jim - And, Of Course, Christy. Keep on Keepin' On !

Always a treat to stay with Jim and Christy. Especially for someone who loves art, music and the whimsical. As soon as you arrive it’s immediate relaxation. The grounds are beautiful the beds are comfy and everything you need is already in place for you. If it so happens that you need anything at all (rare) it’s addressed quickly. I cannot express how much of a gem this place is, a comfy, cozy true Louisiana treat. Our family will visit Jim & Christy’s property as long as they allow us.

Always a highlight of my year to pass a good time at Jim and Christy’s compound. Comfortable, great vibe, beautiful location, and you might just get lucky and have one of your favorite bands playing on the premises! If you are thinking of coming to South Louisiana (and you should be), you can’t do better than a stay with Jim and of course Christy!

Jim & Christy were lovely hosts. We were lucky enough to get to stay during Mardi Gras and got to enjoy an amazing band. It made for a great time and was a highlight of our trip. We hope to come back soon, thank you!

The Honky Tonk is a rare gem. It is a museum full of cultural artifacts that give a wide survey of the music, art, and peoples of southern Louisiana. There is an abundance of meaningful choices made in every corner. Jim showed us the "Tower" building as well which feels like a beautiful culmination to a very large vision. So many carefully selected details, the places hums with spirit.

Jim and Christy's place is more than just a destination. It's an experience that is unlike anything else. From start to finish they were accommodating and willing to work with us to ensure our stay was one of a kind. This unique experience cannot even be put into words. We will definitely be returning to their place many times in tbe future!

We enjoyed our stay here.. The place is unique.. Jim & Christy are wonderful hosts. They responded quickly to all our queries.. We had issues with the water heater, but Jim provided a workaround immediately.
