Why Being Near the Hospital Matters
Most people pick a place by how close it is to work. That makes sense. But there is a second question to ask. How close is the hospital?
For a nurse, the hospital is the job. A short drive means more sleep and less time on the road.
For everyone else, it is peace of mind. If someone gets hurt or sick, help is close.
Here are the drive times from our park:
- Lady of the Sea Hospital, Cut Off: about 5 miles, about 8 minutes

- Terrebonne General, Houma: about 35 miles, about 53 minutes

What Comes With a Furnished Cabin
A furnished cabin is ready the day you get here. You don't buy a couch. You don't buy pots and pans. You don't set up power or water.
- A bed and furniture
- A full kitchen to cook your own meals
- Utilities included
- Your own door and your own space
- Parking close by
Cooking at home saves money on a long stay. It also beats eating gas station food after a long shift.
