Great House on canal - Very nice and Comfortable
Everything was very clean and well stocked and we loved fishing and crabbing off the dock with the Grandkids. We enjoyed Barbecuing on the back porch and caught a nice black drum and several catfish and a stingray! The Neighbors came over and shared some blue crab with us. The entire stay was really fun for our family.
We had a girls trip with they guys staying next door, our boat captains, of course. Mitchâs property was very relaxing and welcoming. We were very comfortable and had everything we needed. Booking for next year is a must for everyone.
This is our 2nd stay at the house. It is clean, roomy and in a great location for fishing. The boat dock and outdoor areas are great. The owner was a pleasure to deal with. We will definitely rent this house again when we return to Hackberry.
This was the perfect location for my family! The property was very clean and comfortable. The owner was very kind and helpful when I contacted him. We had everything we needed and thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We will be back next year!
We really enjoyed our stay at this camp! The fishing was on fire all weekend, right off of the dock in fact! The property was so clean and had everything we needed to have a great time. 5/5 would definitely book again!
We arrived after our long drive from Memphis, TN to enter into this Fish Camp and it was extremely clean and inviting. There is everything you need for your stay. We brought a lot of things with us that we ended up taking back because we didn't need it. The only drawback is sitting on the top deck in the afternoons. There are no ceiling fans on the deck area and each afternoon when the breeze is blowing it was blocked by the house, so sitting on the deck was unbearably hot. The sunset will be in your face for a little while but once the sun goes down, it's actually pleasant sitting outdoors. We didn't know how to turn on the deck lights and the sound on the TV just went out and we couldn't get it back. Another suggestion would be to have a book of instructions on how to operate electronics and lighting. Other than that, we enjoyed the house totally. Having our boat there in our private slip was well worth the price. While we did enjoy the accommodations and location, the marina is what killed it for us. We wanted to do some fishing and one day the marina was closed without warning.
For two days the marina had no live bait. For another two days they had no gas. We just kind of wandered around and had to rely on artificial lures for fishing and keep track of how much gas we used each day. The boat ramp is in an awkward location and if you're not careful you will get run over by other boaters. Being our first time fishing on Lake Calcasieu will also be our last. To avid fishermen, this place would be perfect for you. Location and house set up is perfect. Good luck to all on your future fishing trips. Thanks to the owner for allowing us to share his home.
We had a wonderful stay. It was an awesome location right on the water. Morning views were great to wake up to and cabin was super nice. We will definately be back!
Owner: Mitch Trahan I am an avid fisherman who enjoys the outdoors. After numerous trips to this area, I had a vision of building a camp with all the amenities for others to come relax and enjoy what the area has to offer.
I picked this area because it is located on a private canal that provides access to the prime fishing spots. With this location your group can be picked up by a guide at the camp from the boat dock.
