Scott Homes for Rent

Scott, a suburb to the west of Lafayette, maintains its old-fashioned Cajun lifestyle while serving as a semi-rural hub. Known as the state’s largest producer of Boudin sausage, Scott offers a mix of small country cottages, brick-exterior homes, rancher-style houses, manufactured homes, and newer Acadian-style estates on large lots. Commuters benefit from a 5-mile drive to downtown Lafayette and proximity to bus stops on Ambassador Caffery Parkway. Essential services include Ochsner Lafayette General Medical Center, 4 miles away, and Lafayette Regional Airport, 8 miles away. Local dining highlights feature Don’s Specialty Meats, Grab-n-Geaux Smokehouse, and Billy’s Boudin and Cracklins, with The Coffee Depot, Cajan’s Eatery, and Fezzo’s Seafood, Steakhouse & Oyster Bar offering varied cuisine. For groceries, Nunu’s Cajun Market, Piggly Wiggly, and Super 1 Foods are nearby. Scott Park provides facilities for baseball, basketball, softball, sand volleyball, and football, while Memramcook Park offers a playground, basketball court, and tennis courts. The West Regional branch of the Lafayette Public Library system is also accessible. Families can enjoy Epic Family Entertainment Center’s arcade, laser tag, and climbing walls, or visit Ray’s Card Catalog for trading card tournaments. The annual Boudin Festival features food, music, a beauty pageant, and local crafts. The Lafayette Parish School System serves the area, with Westside Elementary, Scott Middle, and Acadiana High all holding high ratings.
