Lakefront - Real Fish Camp - Reel Fishermen

Welcome to "The Spotted Tail".
We're opening our family's camp to your family! Relax waterside. Experience why Louisiana is known as Sportman’s Paradise. Built with 1940’s craftsmanship & charm, The Spotted Tail is the oldest camp on Calcasieu Lake (Big Lake) and recently updated with today’s comforts. It's located within sight of the boat launch at Hebert's Landing and is true Waterfront! The main lake is only steps from the back door. Come enjoy your catch of the day and a camp fire right next to the water or just relax in the hammock under the patio cover.

Need more room for your group? Bring your camper! Ask about the space before booking.

What a wonderful retreat!
I loved everything about our stay here. From the great communication with the hosts, to the location, the gorgeous sunsets and the amenities - this place had it all. We didn't have kids with us this time, but would highly recommend to anyone who does. Gorgeous home, thank you for sharing it with us!

Taking grandson fishing
We loved the place. The dock was fantastic. Even though the weather wasnt the greatest, the house had plenty to keep our 12 year old grandson occupied.

A Perfect Holiday Retreat and Property
The home is well maintained and clean: fresh sheets and blankets, plenty of cozy pillows, plenty of hot water/showers, soaps and such. The landscaping and view is outstanding. Kitchen well stocked. Clean and sparkling. The patio overlooking the lake well-lit and charming. It's easy to find on GPS. Caught some redfish, yum. Plenty of room for a family to spread out for fun, sun and play. The neighbors respectful and kind. We felt very safe. The owners/host are kind, helpful and honest - they kept me informed as to the status as we went thru process of reservations to check in. As I wrote - a perfect holiday home. It made my top of the list of the VRBO properties I rented.

Family Spring break
We really enjoyed our time on this spring break getaway. Kids got to go down the pier, set crab traps and go fishing. Adults got to relax. We received some awesome food recommendations for crawfish and boudin from the owners. Definitely follow directions to bring big spray:)

Girl’s Trip
Our trip was a mother and daughter get away! 1 mother and 3 daughters we are from Louisiana and one of my sisters has a camp but it’s only accessible by boat and well we all know how men are about their toys!! Lol! Everything that the host has said about this camp is absolutely the truth and then some!! It was by far one of our best trips! The host are amazing in every way you could think of! I don’t think 5 stars is enough for this one!!

A Little Piece of Heaven
House and all facilities on the grounds are beautiful, comfortable and extremely relaxing. It’s a great place to stay if you want to fish, hunt or just relax with friends and/or family. The grounds are clean and spacious. I highly recommend booking this property. The host communicates well with guests to make sure they stay is the best possible. Looking forward to staying again.
