There's a commercial ice machine and a freezer downstairs for fishing and hunting needs and a boiling pot and burner (propane provided) to cook that fresh catch. This unique home sits on a large 1 acre lot with 200 feet of water frontage, which offers lots of privacy. Regular mosquito treatment means you won't be chased in by mosquitos while enjoying your home! The driveway is large and can accommodate many cars and boats (great for large groups). We hope you will love this home as much as we do!

We are 5 seniors who completed high-school together in 1974. For the past 30 years plus we have had an annual reunion with VRBO. We have never had a more wonderful time than at the beautiful Gulfway House. It was very clean, so many amenities, spacious. It is the best of the best vacation rentals. We had so much fun in all the spaces especially the game room spaces. It’s a place for everyone and any occasion. Highly recommended!!
Stayed here for a hunting trip with 5 other guys. Plenty of space. Very clean. All the amenities you could ask for. Tonia was awesome. Best host I’ve had to date. Easy to communicate with and very helpful. We will definitely be back!
We have Texas and Louisiana Family . The House was a perfect gathering space for us for 3 nights . Plenty of room ,very clean and everything we needed to cook a cajun style Thanksgiving . Tonia was great to communicate with and always available . We will be renting in the future.
This is our 3rd time to stay at this home. It's huge but still feels like home. The place has everything you could possibly need. Definitely coming back
I absolutely love this place there is enough room for all of us and we wasn’t on top of each other. She was very informative keeping me up-to-date with what was going on around the house or anything. She also has the house full of like things that people doesn’t think about packing, she saved me from over packing. I feel like when we go off the place like this I feel like I’m packing up like I’m going camping you have to bring everything that you could possibility think of well Miss Tonya had it covered for us .
Overall this is an incredible home. The pictures are just as accurate as the real thing. The vaulted ceiling, plenty of windows for sunlight, and multiple rooms for guests provided a perfect stay for us. Not too far away from social venues either! It had everything we were looking for, and the host was very attentive to our needs.
I've stayed in a lot of VRBOs, and this one is by far the best appointed of them all. Tons of towels, VERY well appointed kitchen, tons of games/stuff for kids to do. The property owners communicated very well. We loved everything about it.
My college friends and I (20+ years after graduation) get together once a year for a weekend of golf, fellowship, fishing, and mis-remembering the past. We chose this property for its size and amenities, and we were not disappointed. In fact we were blown away by how amazing everything was. The pictures do not do the house justice. I cannot say enough good things about this property, or its owners. The check in process was seamless, and the owners were accommodating and accessible. Do yourself a favor and choose this property. You and your group will not be disappointed.
Very beautiful home lots to do for everyone property owners are extremely nice and easy to work with. I recommend this place to anyone wanting a great place to hangout after a long day of fishing.
I can't give enough stars. The property manager was great and very accessible to my family and I throughout the entire trip. This by far is the best hospitality I've received since renting through Vrbo. The home was beautiful and well decorated. It was very organized and they even took the time to write out specifics about the area and where to find items you needed. Before we arrived Tonia provided a list of items i wouldn't need to pack as they were already readily available at the property. I'm in love with this home.
Our group absolutely loved the home. You are impressed before you walk in the door. Once you get inside, Tonia has done an amazing job with decorating the home. You feel both at home but in a space perfect for a family gathering, football weekend, girls trip or fishing trip. There is room for everyone to be together when they want to but to also find their own corner inside or out when required. The furnishings inside and outside are well done. Having the home on the water is great if you want to sit and watch the boats go up and down the canal, fish or just relax and enjoy the view. Having the option of separate beds in several of the rooms was ideal for our friend trip. We spent a lot of time in the kitchen which came with some Louisiana spices and all the appliances and pots and pans to make anything you desired. The pellet grill was put to use as well. Finally, Tonia, our host, was very responsive throughout the booking process, prior to our stay and during our stay. I’d highly recommend this properly for families or groups looking for a place near Lake Charles.
This home is exactly as listed. Plenty of room for a big family. I can be a stickler for cleanliness, but I had no issues here. Nice bonus that they had cleaning supplies available to tidy up, as needed. We made plenty of use of the pool table and the ice machine. The kids LOVED the sauna feature in the master bath. The beds and linens were very comfortable. There were no pellets for the pellet grill, but we were able to get more at Brown’s grocery. Our only complaint, ain’t it is no fault of the property, is that the water gets extremely low right outside of the canal the house is on. We have a deep v 24 foot center console and were extremely close to stuck both days trying to leave. The hosts were very helpful and super easy to communicate with.
This was our second time to stay. The house is spacious and perfect for a large group and fishing. Our extended family came down one day and the kids crabbed off the pier for hours while we sat on the back porch talking. Perfect setting for Memorial Day weekend.
This house is beautiful and has everything you need!! Super clean and in a great location. We had the best family weekend

Bill and I have been partners in a home renovating business for 10 years. We fell in love with this house from the first time we saw it so we decided to keep it and share it with others. It's been extensively renovated and is ready for you!
Why they chose this property
I love that this house has the most amazing porches where there's almost always a breeze. It sits on such a large lot that provides lots of privacy and space for everyone in your group. The steam shower in the master bathroom is amazing whether it's cold out or not. It's fun to sit on the porch and watch the boats going by all day long.
What makes this property unique
Lots of privacy and extra space for large groups to spread out. Even with large groups it never feels crowded.
