Amazing camp
This is a very clean and well equipped camp for a large group of people. Booked it to take my father and brother in laws duck hunting. Relatively close to multiple launches (includes a launch too). Lots of rooms and bathrooms so we were very comfortable. Great spot for leisure between our hunting and fishing in the afternoon. Will definitely be booking this camp in future.

Good Fishing Camp
Very easy access, plenty of space for all our group. Incredible views out back of the bayou and surrounding wildlife.
The pots and pans, could use some serious freshening up or replacement, and there wasn’t a grill like advertised which threw a wrench in our dinner plans but we made things work and we still enjoyed our stay at the house.
We will be back in the future.

Convenient location near Hopedale Marina
The house met our expectations at every level, giving us plenty of space to spread out and sleep comfortably. We kept to the top level of the house. We did not use any of the amenities located on the middle floor. We did notice that all smoke detectors were missing from the top floor, something the owner should remedy.

Awesomeness
This place was the Bomb~ Perfect setting for a family and friends get away. We all went Bowfishing so we stayed Friday to Sunday and there was plenty of room for 8 people. I would recommend the lodge to anyone with a large group.

Overall great stay the only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because there were no face towels. Luckily I brought my own. In all fairness I did not call the owner because I brought towels

Amazing fishing trip!
The house was amazing and exactly what I wanted. The week started out with a couple of my buddies with me for a guy’s fishing trip (we are all from TX but I have family that lives in the area.) The fishing was spectacular; we caught a lot.
The second half of the week, the guys left and my wife and boys joined me after getting off a cruise in New Orleans. They enjoyed the house as well!
It was a win-win and if we do this again, we will definitely be back! Thanks for many great memories!

Fishing was poor but the father son fellowship was fantastic. There are 3 rooms that sleep one man each and 2 bunk rooms that sleep 2 each which was perfect for 3 father son teams.
TV, grill, porch and location all work. I would stay here again!

Perfect Camp for a fishing trip
We stayed at the camp for a week and loved it. The camp was exactly as described from the listing. The boat ramp on site is a huge plus for us. There was a small issue that was communicated to the property owner when we arrived. He was very responsive and the issue was fixed immediately. We are already looking at dates to go back again. The second story porch was a great place to relax after a day in the marsh. We were very pleased with the camp.
