Cut Off, LA Home for Rent

Cut Off, Louisiana, is a small community of around 5,500 residents located more than 25 miles west of Houma. The town’s name originates from a “cut-off” channel created to ease travel around Bayou Lafourche after the Cheniere Hurricane in 1893. Cut Off offers various things to do, including outdoor recreation like golfing at Tidelands Country Club, target shooting at Cut Off Range Complex, and fishing at Big Bayou Blue in nearby Larose. The Cut Off Youth Center hosts activities such as Biddy Basketball and swim team training, while Eagle Scout Park provides a playground and walking paths. Dining options include Cher Amie’s Seafood and Mommie Jo’s, known for Cajun delicacies. Cut Off Elementary School and Larose-Cut Off Middle School both have high ratings. Housing styles range from fixer-uppers to brick custom builds and classic Acadian-style homes, with some properties featuring docks or boat slips. The area is connected by Louisiana Highway 3235 and Highway 1, providing access to Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport, 50 miles away. Residents face coastal flooding risks, especially during hurricane season from June to November. The annual Hurricane Festival and French Food Festival are notable local events.
