About this house rental
Marathon Spectator’s Guide
Avoid race-day traffic and road closures! Located just 1/4 mile from the Louisiana Marathon route, our home is the perfect "Cheer HQ."
Walk to the Action: A 5-minute stroll lets you cheer on your runner and pop back home to stay warm or grab a snack while they crush the miles.
Family Friendly: Ideal for kids or seniors; enjoy a full kitchen and clean space rather than standing in the elements.
Prime Spot: Steps from the course—see your runner and easily reach the finish!

The LSU Retreat is truly that - a wonderful retreat to visit our son at college! This clean, organized, equipped home had everything we needed to enjoy a weekend getaway while visiting our son for Family Weekend at LSU. Our host, Amy, was more than accommodating and made this trip extra special with all of her special touches. Every age from 2 to 69 truly enjoyed our stay at the LSU Retreat. We look forward to our next visit and will 100% be sure to book with Amy, again!
