Camp in Venice
 

Realistically, what would I be looking at spending on a houseboat in one of the marina slips down there?

Basically what I'm asking is... do any of you have a place down there? and how much do you have invested in said place? Trying to just get a ball park figure. I don't have a houseboat.. would have to purchase one or build one. what do you guys recommend?

not sold on the houseboat idea.. other suggestions are welcome. TIA :cheers:

I know after katrina and rita some of the places down there will not allow houseboats.
So i'm sure space is at a premium???

i seen some houseboats for rent. but no open slips to house a house boat....

Had friends who had one at Cypress Cove, it ended up in the dry stack building for Katrina, but it survived. They don't allow them anymore, but Venice Marina has them all now.

If you go houseboat, consider coming back north to Empire behind the levee.
Better chance of having one last.

There are a couple for sale around that area now I think.
It's a twenty minute hall in the morning, but ...........

name of said place/area?

I kinda figured that... anyone know of any reasonable land for sale? or any developments being considered? I'm looking for future opportunities to keep an eye out on

eta: and thank you to those that have replied with ANY info.. i had like 100 views before anyone said ANYTHING

Not sure really, but it's right after you cross the bridge at Empire on the left.
Quick to get out the locks too.
Delta Marina may have that information.

Look in to the Plaquemines parish sheriff's sales too.
kinda of clickish............LOL but it can happen

my family lives right before the bridge. I'll call my aunt and see if she knows anything.

Here you go. It is at Grand Isle.
