Gator getaway

Very enjoyable, quiet and relaxing stay. Sam and Lize are great hosts who made us feel right at home. This location is fairly remote with stores or restaurants 20 to 30 mins away so just bring what you need. We even had some luck fishing from the boathouse on a rainy day and caught several nice crappie.

Wonderful weekend!

We absolutely loved Gator Lodge! Sam and Elizabeth were so kind to us and the cabin was just as advertised. We enjoyed the privacy, the view and that the cabin was impeccably clean and neat. We'll be back and highly recommend it!

Relaxing Vacation

My husband, myself, and our 2 teenagers stayed at this property and really loved it. It was very relaxing, clean, and well-suited to our needs. Furthermore, while off the beaten path, we enjoyed visiting both Jefferson and Shreveport during our stay.

Fishing trip

Great place to stay for a fishing trip. Having the boat slip to dock your boat overnight is great. Boat launch right down the road.

Spring break getaway

My husband, 2 boys and I stayed here over Spring Break for a close to home getaway. We had a great time fishing on the dock and exploring the area (Big Pines Lodge has amazing food and live outdoor entertainment). The kitchen had everything you might need and the owners were nearby to assist with check in and the luggage lift. Keep in mind if you are in a big truck the turn to get to the property is very sharp. The only down side were the mattresses, they're all extremely firm but we didn't stay in them long anyway. We will definitely stay here again and catch another sunset on the dock.

Loved it!

This was our 2nd time staying at this property, and we'll do it again next year. The house has just about everything you'd need, and it's clean & comfortable. It being on the lake made our stay super convenient & extremely enjoyable. I can't wait to go back next year!

"Impressed"

Caddo lake is one of a kind and i see why you call it home. We enjoyed our stay so much. Lize and Sam were the best hosts ever, Lize even made us home maid zucchini bread. We enjoyed our stay much and will be back for sure.

Waterfront view

Comfortable beds, clean shower with good water pressure, and cold AC. Bonus was being able to overlook the lake from either the deck or back room of the home. Or just watching the squirrels play in the trees. The stairs may be too steep for the elderly or those with bad joints. Would stay here again if in the area.

Best part of the lake!!

Loved our brief stay at Gator Lodge! I stay at my family's place down the road for few months out of the year, but we had family in town and needed more space. If you're looking to come to Caddo, you can't beat this location for the best of Caddo. (I'm probably biased, but the views from this part of the big lake are stunning -- positioned to catch every sunset over the water on the Big Lake.)Gator Lodge is great for a classic Caddo cabin experience -- modern amenities with the way the lake felt growing up. The dock/outdoor spaces here are incredible as well. If you want a boring house rental that could be in a big city or anywhere, go elsewhere. If you're looking to really feel like you're at Caddo, come here. Highly recommend!

Relaxing

Very peaceful...it has a different atmosphere than other rivers or lakes we've been. There are many very old cypress trees here, so beautiful, and really add to the whole vibe of the place. The owner visited with us a little bit. She is a very friendly & interesting lady. This is by far one of the coolest places we've been!!

Perfect getaway

The Treehouse was perfect for our last minute get away! Boat slip 1/8th mile down the road makes getting kayaks/boats very easy to get into water and to the pier. The property also has a canoe, kayak and life jackets. Fire pit had firewood stacked beside it with several chairs. Great pier for fishing and relaxing. We enjoyed playing the board games and reading books that were in the cabin. Host were very responsive and helpful! Not a problem for us, however some guest may need to be aware there are several steps down to/from the pier. We enjoyed being elevated from the water and a higher view out over the lake!

Caddo Lake Thanksgiving!

Liz and Sam are amazing hosts who were receptive to our needs. We had a glorious day of cooking for Thanksgiving, then canoeing, fishing, hiking, campfire, and more. Caddo Lake is eerily beautiful; perfect!

We loved it, beautiful sunsets view from the pier. Took our boat out to cruise the lake. Boat slip was nice to keep from having to load the boat up from each trip. Would stay again.

An East Texas Gem!

This is a wonderful cabin for a quiet retreat. From breakfasts on the deck overlooking the lake to afternoons on the dock watching the world go by, you can’t ask for a better property. The hosts are very responsive and made sure we had everything to make our stay memorable. One evening as thunderstorms rolled through, the host stopped by to ensure we were safe. Also, Jefferson, with several nice restaurants and shops, is worth the short drive.
