About this property
Escape to Calcasieu Lake Lodge-Premier Fishing and Family Getaway
Welcome to Calcasieu Lake Lodge—a quintessential South Louisiana retreat where rustic charm, outdoor adventure, and genuine Southern hospitality come together. Nestled on peaceful acreage along the east side of Calcasieu Lake, also known as Big Lake, the lodge is conveniently located just south of Lake Charles. It offers a quiet country setting for fishing and waterfowl trips, family vacations, retreats, and weekends with friends while keeping guests within an easy drive of Lake Charles casinos, restaurants, shopping, golf, and entertainment. Whether your plans include an early morning on the water, a guided duck hunt, an evening at the casinos, or simply relaxing beside the pond, Calcasieu Lake Lodge provides a comfortable place to gather, recharge, and experience the best of Southwest Louisiana.
A WELL-STOCKED SOUTH LOUISIANA LODGE We want your stay to be as easy and enjoyable as possible, which is why the lodge is thoughtfully stocked with more than just the basics. Guest favorites include: • A 600-pound ice maker - especially appreciated by fishing and hunting groups • A fully equipped chef’s kitchen with quality cutlery and an excellent cast-iron collection • A Big Green Egg, Weber grill, and large barrel smoker • Thick foam mattress toppers and comfortable pillows on every bed • Box fans in every bedroom for added airflow and white noise • Quality shampoo, body wash, paper towels, toilet paper, and everyday essentials • Plates, cups, utensils, cookware, paper products, and other conveniences for your stay
SLEEPS UP TO EIGHT GUESTS Calcasieu Lake Lodge comfortably accommodates up to eight guests, with sleeping spaces that work well for families, couples, hunting parties, and fishing groups. The private primary suite is located on the east side of the lodge and features a comfortable king-size bed, two closets, luggage racks, and its own full bathroom. It is a welcoming place to rest after an early morning hunt, a full day of fishing, or an evening out in Lake Charles. The junior bunkroom includes a cozy twin bunk bed, two closets, and a luggage rack to help keep clothing and outdoor gear organized. Quiet and comfortable throughout the year, it is an ideal space for children or additional guests. Located on the southwest side of the lodge, the spacious main bunkroom is separated from the living area by rustic sliding barn doors for added privacy. It features a full-over-full bunk bed and a separate twin bed, along with a private full bathroom and an attached laundry room - especially convenient after a day spent outdoors.
RELAX, GATHER AND STAY AWHILE The comfortable living room is furnished with an oversized leather sofa and two reclining chairs, providing plenty of room for your group to unwind. Watch the big game on the large wall-mounted television, enjoy a family movie night, share stories from the day, or settle in for a well-earned afternoon nap. The large screened-in porch is another favorite gathering place. Enjoy your morning coffee, relax after a day on the lake, or spend a quiet evening taking in the peaceful country surroundings.
A KITCHEN MADE FOR GATHERING The chef’s kitchen is one of the highlights of Calcasieu Lake Lodge. Thoughtfully organized and fully equipped, it features a gas cooktop, quality cutlery, cast-iron cookware, and the essentials needed to prepare everything from an early breakfast to a traditional South Louisiana feast. The kitchen also overlooks the pond and much of the surrounding acreage, offering one of the best views on the property while you cook, dine, and spend time together.
FISHING AT THE LODGE AND ON BIG LAKE Fishing is an important part of the Calcasieu Lake Lodge experience. Our private stocked pond features a healthy population of bass and bluegill maintained on a feeding program. A small dock provides a peaceful place to fish, picnic, sip a glass of wine, or watch the sunset. Bring your favorite rod—and your fly rod if you have one—and enjoy fishing just steps from the lodge. Calcasieu Lake is only a stone’s throw from the property and is known for excellent speckled trout, redfish, and flounder fishing. Hebert’s Landing and its public boat launch are less than one mile away, making it easy to get an early start on the water. The lodge is also located across the lake from Hackberry, giving guests convenient access to fishing guides and charter opportunities throughout the Big Lake area. Referrals for bay fishing, bass fishing, boat rentals, and other outdoor experiences are available upon request.
WATERFOWL HUNTING AND OUTDOOR ADVENTURES Calcasieu Lake Lodge makes a comfortable home base for waterfowl hunters exploring Cameron Parish and the surrounding marshlands. Return after the hunt to plenty of ice, a warm meal, comfortable beds, laundry access, and room for the group to relax. We are happy to provide referrals for guided hunting, fishing, bird-watching, and other outdoor adventures. The nearby Cameron Prairie National Wildlife Refuge also offers opportunities to experience the wildlife, wetlands, and natural beauty of Southwest Louisiana.
CAJUN FOOD AND LOCAL FLAVOR No trip to South Louisiana is complete without memorable food. With advance notice, authentic Cajun dishes - including gumbo, jambalaya, étouffée, and pistolettes - may be arranged for delivery directly to the lodge. A minimum of two weeks’ notice is requested to help guarantee availability. Guests can also use the lodge’s fully equipped kitchen and outdoor grills to prepare their own catch, host a group cookout, or enjoy a relaxed dinner overlooking the pond.
COUNTRY PEACE NEAR LAKE CHARLES Calcasieu Lake Lodge offers the best of both worlds: the privacy and slower pace of a country retreat with convenient access to Lake Charles. Spend the day shopping, golfing, dining, or exploring the area, then enjoy an evening at the casinos or local entertainment venues. When the night is over, leave the city activity behind and return to the peace of the lodge, where you can relax beneath the stars and wake up surrounded by quiet acreage. NEARBY DESTINATIONS • Hebert’s Landing and boat launch on Big Lake: 0.9 mile, approximately 1 minute • Brown’s Neighborhood Market in Grand Lake: 6 miles, approximately 5 minutes • Gray Plantation Golf Course in Lake Charles: 14 miles, approximately 15 minutes • Cameron Prairie National Wildlife Refuge and Pintail Wildlife Drive: 16 miles • Golden Nugget, dining, and entertainment in Lake Charles: 19 miles, approximately 20 minutes The lodge is also convenient to Hackberry, Grand Lake, Sweet Lake, Bell City, Sulphur, Johnson Bayou, Cameron Parish, Sabine Lake, Prien Lake, and destinations throughout Southwest Louisiana.
YOUR SOUTH LOUISIANA ESCAPE Calcasieu Lake Lodge is a place to slow down, spend time together, and enjoy an authentic Louisiana experience.
