(Editor's Comments): Due to the large amount of feedback we have received on this facility, all of it positive, we've posted only the more recent comments. We thank everybody who has sent in so many nice comments. (9/3/21) - "WOW WOW WOW! These people are amazing! My husband was broke down and they picked up my horse and trailer in the heat of the summer and brought her to safety, caring for her while his truck was fixed. We will always stay here when we come through. The place is fabulous and the owners really go out of their way ♥ Amazing 🤩.". . . (1/11/22) - "Beautiful, well kept barn; so clean it smelled fresh. Spacious stalls, easy to locate. We have a big rig and had plenty of room to manoeuvre in and out. Highly recommend to everyone!!". . . (3/1/22) - "We stayed at Cypress Creek Farm for one night and had a great experience. The host, Carolyn, was at the property when we arrived and was incredibly nice and helpful. The facility is very clean and was large enough with solid ground to maneuver our 38ft trailer. The stalls are in great condition and the horses had plenty of room to rest after the long drive. We stayed at a Sleep Inn a few miles away in Ruston where there are plenty of hotel and food options. While the hotel was very convenient, hopefully next time we can stay onsite as Carolyn mentioned that she has a cabin onsite that will soon be available for guests. My husband and I have made this drive a few times but this was our first time staying at Cypress Creek Farm. I can say this was the BEST experience we have had. We are looking forward to staying here on future trips. Highly Recommend!". . . (4/17/22) - "Beautiful facility only 5 minutes from any store. The host was super sweet and accommodating and met us by the gate upon arriving. The barn was very clean, the stalls were large and there was plenty of space to turn around our trailer. I would definitely stay again next time we are traveling!". . . (7/19/22) - "Absolutely the nicest overnight facility I have ever stayed in! The hosts were spectacular, the facility was beautiful and easy to find and my ponies were treated like royalty. Highly recommend!". . . (7/20/23) - "I am SO thankful for Carolyn at Cypress Creek! We were relocating from TN to TX and needed a place to overnight with the horses. The schedule did not go as planned, at all, and we arrived at Cypress Creek at 2:00 in the morning. I felt TERRIBLE! But, Carolyn met us at the barn and helped us get settled. It was WONDERFUL to be able to put the horses in stalls and go straight to bed in the barn apartment. Carolyn and Cypress Creek Farm were an absolute blessing to us during a very stressful time. I highly recommend!". . . (8/20/23) - "Carolyn is a gem of a woman, and her facility is absolutely stunning. They’re on a very quiet, flawlessly accessible road that was a piece of cake to find. Carolyn and her husband live on top of the hill overlooking the facility, she met us at 4:30 am after we drove 12 hours overnight, Showed us to the large, grassy pasture for the horses with a freshly washed and filled trough, a shelter that could have held 10+ horses and some big shade trees. The inside facilities are absolutely beautiful and clearly done with horses' safety in mine. We stayed in their guest room in the barn and it was clean, perfectly air conditioned, impressively stocked, and the beds were wonderful. I can’t say enough great things about Carolyn or her facility. Access, trailer space, accommodations, location, cleanliness was all 5 star. I’d go out of my way in the future to stay here again for the peace of mind. Thank you Carolyn for making a cross country trip so much easier!". . . (11/12/23) - "Wonderful location! We asked for a turnout pasture for our horses and they were secure and had plenty of grass and water. Couple met us at the barn at arrival and were very friendly. They recommended a Cajun restaurant about 10 minutes away which was fabulous. In the morning, our horses were refreshed and didn’t want leave! Thank you Carolyn and Billy Jack.". . . (7/15/24) - "Well maintained facility with huge stalls. Host was very accommodating, friendly, and a joy to meet. Perfect place for a stopover. Thank you!". . . (10/4/24) - "Carolyn was so gracious and sincere. My horse and I felt very welcomed and had a very good stay. I did not need the lodging they have, but it is adorable, clean and well-appointed. I appreciated the use of the restroom. The barn is fantastic and super clean. There is also a roundpen if needed. When we are ever needing to pass through that way again, we will definitely be staying there." |

Comments: (6/23/24) - "Stayed here on the way to AQHA VRH World Show with 2 studs and a mare. First off, this facility is beautiful! The stalls were huge and had runs. Our horses loved getting to stretch their legs and rest comfortably and safely. Covered indoor arena, covered solid side round pen, super nice wash rack. Also hooked up our LQ and it was easy to get in and out. The owner was out of town but left great instructions. Booking was a breeze as the owner was super responsive. There was a gas station down the road that had the best food we had all trip! Definitely recommend." |

Will be back!". . . (6/17/24) - "We had a wonderful rest and stop over in Folsom. Thank you Lisa; everything was perfect. Big stalls with turn out was wonderful.

(Editor's Comments): Due to the large amount of feedback we have received on this facility, all of it positive, we've posted only the more recent comments. We thank everybody who has sent in so many nice comments. (3/13/18) - "What a beautiful facility. The barn is beautiful and very secure. Close by hotels and restaurants and even New Orleans. We will stay with them again!!! Super stay!!!". . . (3/26/18) - "This was our second visit and it was as great as the first. We woke up to a flat tire on the horse trailer and had some trouble with a stripped lug nut. The host brought us different tools to try and remove the lug but we ended up running out to a local tire place to get it removed. We put the spare on but the tire place didn't have trailer tires so we were going to start home and stop somewhere along the way for a spare but the host took his spare off of his trailer so we wouldn't have to worry! How awesome! Then as the bonus we got to bottle feed two of their baby goats! We can't wait for another visit !!!". . . (3/26/18) - "What a beautiful place and super nice hosts. Our stalls were big, clean and ready upon arrival. This is so convenient to I-10, easy to get in and out even with a huge rig. We had power for our RV. Definitely will be staying here again on our way to and from Florida.". . . (7/10/18) - "If you are passing through Louisiana, this is the place to stay! The accommodations and the staff are amazing! They went above and beyond for us and our horse. I highly recommend it!". . . (8/9/18) - "Jeannie and Jason took excellent care of our horses and us. Friendly and helpful, experienced horse people that accommodated every request. The facility was very clean and safe. Would recommend it to anyone who needs a place for their horses in this area.". . . (4/29/19) - "Clean and tidy with a great first impression with a gated entrance. The owners were quick to answer when we called and also called to check on our progress so they could prepare the stall. We will definitely stay again as it was close to our crossroads and a great halfway point for travelers running the Florida/Texas trips!". . . (11/3/21) - "Stunning barn. Our horses stayed in a grass arena for the night with minis and donkey friends coming and going. You can also stay in the beautiful barn. Nice bathroom and laundry, plus hook up. Good location.". . . (7/31/22) - "Amazing, friendly and helpful welcome from Kevin, the farm manager. Super clean facility and big stalls. Easy access from I-10. Will come back if I’m in the area again.". . . (11/21/22) - "Amazing hospitality and stellar facility. We truly wanted to linger longer! I plan to return and enjoy more, thank you for a great layover.". . . (3/7/23) - "Lovely property.

Comments: (12/13/21) - "This is a great property with nice, big, clean stalls or a wonderful pasture area. Tracie and Mark were very accommodating to our horses and our needs. Would definitely stay here again if our travel plans have us in the area. Note: follow Tracie's directions and not phone maps,unless you want a twisty turny drive!". . . (12/12/22) - "I arrived at dusk and was greeted with friendly hosts. Hosts were very accommodating and showed me the grassy paddock for my horse, automatic waterer, the clean bathroom and shower, the washrack and hose area and also left the light on in the barn for me, so if I needed to find the bathroom at night it would be easier. I was able to park close to my horse and clean out my trailer using their neat and tidy manure pile. Property is gated for security overnight. Would highly recommend this horse hotel. Perfect 1/2 way spot between Texas and Florida.". . . (2/23/23) - "Super accommodating hosts who were very easy to work with. 30 and 50 amp available. Quiet place, really clean and orderly barn. Owners clearly take pride in their place! It was a snug fit but we didn't struggle getting our 40' rig in and out. Thanks for offering 2 Lazy 2 Stables up for overnight stops!" |
