Covington, LA
Covington sits on the north shore of Lake Pontchartrain a few miles from Mandeville, and its historic downtown, built around a well-preserved grid of 19th-century buildings, has developed a genuine arts-town identity, with a concentration of galleries, working artist studios, and the St. Tammany Art Association drawing visitors specifically for its creative community. The city has become a haven for writers and musicians over the decades, and Covington's relatively small scale and historic character have made it a popular alternative for New Orleans-area residents seeking a quieter, more walkable small-town setting without leaving the broader metro region entirely. The Tammany Trace rail-trail, the same paved path running through Mandeville, extends through Covington as well, giving the city direct biking and walking access to neighboring north shore communities along a former railroad corridor. Covington's combination of a well-preserved historic downtown, a genuine concentration of working artists and writers, and direct rail-trail connections to neighboring communities has made it one of the more culturally distinctive small towns anywhere on Lake Pontchartrain's north shore.
VS
Slidell, LA
Slidell sits at the eastern end of Lake Pontchartrain's north shore, close to the Mississippi state line, and its position along Interstate 10 and Interstate 12 has made it a significant transportation crossroads for traffic moving between New Orleans, the Gulf Coast, and points further east. The city's Olde Towne Slidell historic district has preserved a walkable cluster of early-20th-century commercial buildings along Erlanger Street, giving the city a small-town downtown core distinct from its newer highway-corridor commercial development. Slidell was significantly impacted by Hurricane Katrina's storm surge in 2005, with substantial flooding across parts of the city, and its recovery and subsequent growth in the years since have made it one of the more closely watched examples of north shore rebuilding and continued suburban expansion in the broader New Orleans metro area. Slidell's combination of its position as a major interstate transportation crossroads, a preserved small-town historic downtown in Olde Towne, and its post-Katrina recovery and growth has made it one of the larger and more strategically positioned suburbs anywhere on Lake Pontchartrain's north shore.
