Located in rural Vernon Parish only 14 miles from Fort Polk, we offer nature in a very natural site and honor the military per diem rate. Many wildflowers, trees, butterflies, birds, leaf cutter ants, etc. will be seen most of the year. Farm fresh eggs for breakfast daily from several kinds of chickens plus guineas. You can take a hike on the trails or signup for a guided nature hike. Photography is encouraged. The night sky is spectacular plus fireflys, owls, hummingbird moths, and many other animals. The house is a cozy five bedroom with a large common living room.

The Allens were fabulous innkeepers providing excellent food and information about the flora and fauna on their acreage and that of the national forest behind them. A joy for any person with a naturalist bent.

If I could have scored higher than a 5 I would have! Big thumbs up from me. Highly recommend to anyone that has business at Ft. Polk or surrounding area. A short 15 minute drive to Ft. Polk, perfect if you like nature and even better if you like to eat. Much better than any hotel you will ever stay at. Susan and Dr. Allen are great hosts!! I will certainly come back if I'm in the area. Don't miss your chance to experience the best hospitality, in a relaxing setting - it felt like home. Lori, O'fallon, IL

I stayed at Allen Acres with a few of my co-workers and we were very pleased with our stay. Our hosts were gracious and friendly, and provided the perfect environment for our 4 day stay. They went out of their way to make us comfortable and I will definitely stay here again if I am at Ft Polk for business in the near future.

Charles and Susan Allen are wonderful hosts. If you like to explore nature in detail, this is the right place for you. There is some forest on the premises and Mr. Allen will be delighted to show you around and explain everything. Allen Acres is perfect with children, too. A classic farmstay with all comfort and well working wifi at a very calm and peaceful place. The hardest thing there is to leave when your stay will be over. Try it!

5 out of 5Home Away from Home
October 21, 2012
We stumbled upon Allen Acres when traveling through Louisiana for work & only wish that we could have stayed longer. Charles & Susan are incredible hosts, so kind, warm, knowledgeable, welcoming and friendly and we felt right at home from the moment we pulled up at the property and were greeted at our vehicle! The B&B is located on beautiful grounds, complete with butterflies abounding, rocking chairs on the front porch (perfect for sipping morning coffee) and a delicious breakfast, including eggs right from their farm! Allen Acres truly did feel like a home away from home for us & we're looking forward to returning the next time we come through the area....Thank You Charles & Susan for your wonderful hospitality and kindness.
5 out of 5I wish I could have found this place sooner!

There is nothing I don't like about this place. The Allens waste no time convincing you that you are one of the family. There is always something blooming in the gardens, and it is a rare moment when there are no hummingbirds or butterflies around. Charles is a first class botanist who can tell you a story about any plant you come across. Susan is a first class cook that will inspire you to postpone the diet until after you leave. That is just scratching the surface! The Allens are very interesting and welcoming, and I plan to return to Allen Acres often.
5 out of 5Wonderful place to stay!
March 09, 2012
Stayed during the first of March. We stayed for two nights and it was wonderful. Charles and his wife Susan were really down to earth great people. Great place to stay with kids, loved the chickens and being able to be outside. The breakfast made by Susan was really good and there was lots of it, always extras! We would definitely recommend to stay there and consider staying again if we were to ever be in the area again.
