About this house rental
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.

The fish camp was perfect for our 53rd wedding anniversary. We love to fish, crab and net shrimp. We got to do all three and cooked crabs twice once with shrimp also and had a trout fish fry. The house was very comfortable and well equipped for cooking. Our host was very prompt replying to messages and very helpful suggesting dining options. Although we only ate out once because we caught our meals. We had a wonderful time.

Great location right on the water. Great outdoor area. Very well equipped kitchen. Very clean. Easy communication with owners. Comfortable seating areas and game tables. Will return!
6 / 10Average·Oct 2025
Kitchen table permanently sticky. BBQ was dirty, broken down (the grating was full of holes) and very difficult to use, and the BBQ area was dimly lit. The beds were very uncomfortable (for us) and the plastic covers on the mattresses made them hot and sweaty. The separate fan controls controlled BOTH the upstairs and downstairs bedrooms simultaneously , which made it impossible to adjust each bedroom separately. The double beds only makes it harder for "larger" couples. The ice maker did not function properly. The upstairs TV did not seem to get antennae reception. The fishing was poor but not anyone's fault. Overall, it was more "grungy" than "rustic". The fishing/unloading cart was much appreciated, but the tires were flat (so I pumped them up). The hosts are great however. We realize it is an old fishing camp and not a spa, but with a few basic fixes and tidying up it would be a lot more comfortable while maintaining the rustic charm.
