After a brief weekend spent biking the St. Tammany Trace and exploring this charming town, Michael & Rikki decided to relocate to Mandeville in 2014. We find ourselves daily at the Mandeville lakefront enjoying the swings, playgrounds, gazebo, sailboats, fishing, walking and bike paths, magnificent live oaks, and breathtaking sunsets. We frequent the restaurants, shops, nightlife and activities that are all within walking distance for our family. We hope you come visit and you just might find yourself falling in love with this charming community just as we did!

Guesthouse on Girod is a three room home with individual guestroom rentals. All spaces offer a tranquil bed & bath with private courtyard entrances. The property is located 1 block from the beautiful Lake Pontchartrain that offers beautiful sunsets, walking paths and a constant, coastal breeze.

The giant oaks along Mandeville's lakefront are iconic for this old and lovely town on the north shore of Lake Pontchartrain. Progressive yet protective of its heritage and natural beauty, Old Mandeville offers visitors shopping, memorable restaurants, jazz and music attractions and places to explore the outdoors, like Northlake Nature Center, Mandeville Lakefront, and Fontainebleau State Park.
