This property was above expectations. This isnt your every day camp. Everything we could have dreamed of was available. From crab traps to games to art to design to many great amenities

One of the best Camps I've stayed in with Amazing Views of Big Lake! The Hosts were great and the camp had everything we need and more.

Everything that we needed, and everything that owner provided, made for a very special Easter for our family.
Warm Cookies and cold milk awaited our arrival from owner.
Their residence offered all the amenities needed and was set in an spectacular position (facing the water); certainly not a fishing-camp atmosphere. However, we did know several of local guides that put us onto sufficient fish in the immediate body of water to feed (plus some)12 guests.
We will definitely book at another time of year; looking forward to a Fall trip when we can invite some close friends in our network (Houston) who would greatly appreciate the owner's offering. Note: small Episcopal church located in walking distance from the owner's location that is available to worship from Easter to Labor Day.

We were in Lake Charles for a family funeral and wanted a place where we could stay together as a family. Mary and Brian's place provided that and so much more. This home gave us a place to relax in beautiful surroundings. We loved it from the time we drove in! A beautiful porch with amazing water views. A woodburning fireplace that we used every night and a few mornings. (You don't get a fireplace with a gorgeous water view very often!) A fully stocked kitchen, including the coffee! Plenty of space for us to play games upstairs or to spread out and have our quiet moments of solitude. Comfy beds. Three full bathrooms. Honestly, we hated to leave!
Communication with hosts were quick, efficient and welcoming from the beginning to the end! We would all highly recommend and I hope to find an excuse to book again in the near future!

This house is near our own camp and we are now too many to fit in our house and we enjoy spilling over into this beautiful and very comfortable, well-supplied Big Lake camphouse. It is large and very pretty. The breeze on the front porch is pleasant and relaxing.

Can’t say enough great things about this property. Great communication with the owner throughout the process. The house is beautiful, spacious, and extremely well stocked with everything you would need. Gorgeous views of the lake. I went there for guys fishing trip and we used a local guide. This location was perfect for it. It was close to where the guides launched from and plenty of space to come back and cook our catch. Do not hesitate to stay here.

First, Mary's bay house is beautiful and well appointed. This is not a Big Lake / Calcasieu Lake camp. Next, just to clarify the difference this is a beautiful bay home with everything you need from the way it is furnished, the amount of beds / people it will sleep, the number of bathrooms, or simply having everything you need in the kitchen to cook while you're there. Also, the views from the back porch of the camp which are your living room & kitchen views as well are amazing. And, Mary has maintained the place extremely well & it is kept really clean especially for an STR property. Last, Mary is an outstanding short term rental property host. I hosted a 50th surprise birthday weekend for my wife at Mary's bay house and she absolutely went out of her way to accommodate every request I made and even offer up assistance and favors for our group that were unsolicited. We had the fortunate chance of meeting her as well and she is even friendlier in person as she is via messaging her. You won't find a better host on VRBO. She's amazing. If you're on the fence about renting her place go ahead & pull the trigger you won't regret it!

This house is near our family camp and we had a very big group so we spilled over into this lovely, very comfortable and spacious accommodation and had room to spare. The house is amazingly well furnished and supplied. The hosts are easy to contact and were very accommodating. We couldn’t have enjoyed our stay more. Thank you!

Second Year!
This was our second year spending a weekend at this house on Big Lake and it's one of favorite spots. The hospitality and responsiveness of the owners deserves more than 5 stars. The house itself has everything we need, and then some. Plenty of space, including a large patio for relaxing in the lake breeze.

Great views, private neighborhood
Owners are fantastic; very hospitable and great communication. The house made our vacation to Lake Charles very enjoyable and was easily able to accommodate our group of 9. Location is in a quiet part of town, which made our getaway even better while hanging out at the house. Beautiful views close to the lake - Highly recommend!
