WELCOME TO EMERALD FOREST CONDOMINIUMS Edit page

***It is with a heavy heart and profound sadness that we would like to let everyone know that our friend and fellow board member, Joe Kosofsky, has passed away.  It was such a privilege and pleasure to work with and get to know such a kind hearted man.  He will be so missed.  We ask that you please keep his family and loved ones in your prayers. The Emerald Forest Condominium Board of Directors***

Located in Covington, Louisiana, on the Northshore of Lake Pontchartrain, Emerald Forest is just above Interstate 12. Residents can count on an easy commute to New Orleans while affording them the opportunity to enjoy the quiet side of the lake. Festivals, culture, cuisine, music and art fill the Northshore and the moss draped rivers and bayous make this area an enviable place to live.
