About this property

Pelican's Nest~Caddo Lake Cabin 3 with Kayaks! Caddo Lake Cabins, Oil City, La.

Caddo Lake Cabins are 4 "Tiny House" Cabins with a view of the mysterious Caddo Lake! There is a charcoal grill / smoker next each cabin & also next to the covered picnic pavilion, with hanging lights for nighttime enjoyment! However, the STAR of the show is sitting outside at night watching thousands of stars twinkle & fly through the sky! It's a one of a kind experience! Enjoy Caddo Lake all day, then the star show at night!

We live 45 minutes from the cabins, we won’t be on-site but are available by phone/text should you have any questions.

Caddo Lake Cabins are 3 miles down Ferry Lake Road- it’s a very quiet- safe area right across the street from Caddo Lake.

Pelican’s Nest sleeps 2 people in 1 Queen sized bed, if you need to sleep 3, we have an ottoman that converts to a twin bed or you could use the memory foam cot.
Caddo Lake Cabins sits on about an acre of fenced land in a park-like setting. There’s plenty of yard for outdoor fun! It’s out in the country where there are no city lights to interfere with star gazing. Ferry Lake Road dead ends into Caddo Lake. The only traffic is residents of the street.

We have 4 larger cabins on Emerald Isle on Cross Lake & 4 tiny cabins on Caddo Lake, please message me if interested in others and I can send you the links!

There is a charcoal grill next to each cabin- it’s got a side smoker so if you plan to smoke meat, bring your favorite smoking pellets😊

There is a Mexican Restaurant right down the road, as well as a dollar general (sells just about all essentials! …groceries, charcoal, bug spray, even beer and wine coolers!) liquor & tobacco stores. There is a Walmart about 10 miles away.

Not if you are serious about kayaking

The cabin was clean, comfortable and quiet for sleeping. Our main purpose was kayaking and titling this "Pelican's Nest~Caddo Lake Cabin 3 with Kayaks!" is a little misleading. The kayaks (1 regular and two very small) are shared among 4 cabins and RVs at the location. The launch is not owned by the cabin owner and across the street and down the road 1,000+ feet. Luckily we became aware of the kayak situation when I asked the owner after already booking and we brought our own. The air conditioner did not efficiently cool the cabin. It was fine for our October visit but I can imagine in the summer it would be grueling.

Great place

The cabin was close to everything that we wanted to do but was very quiet. It was very clean and had everything that we needed. The owners were super helpful and made sure we had everything taken care of and was happy. We will definitely go back and also check out some other places they have. FIVE STAR rating for sure!!!

Very Rustic

Metal building converted to a very small cabin. Bed was not a queen. No lake view from the porch. We got there at after 9 and the cabin was like a steam oven. No place to hang our clothes. This would be okay for a man on a fishing trip but not good for a couple get away.

Great getaway

My parents spent a lovely few days at the cabin and raved about the view over the lake and the scenery in the area. Jennifer was a great host, checking in with us to make sure all was okay and making sure to turn on the heating before arrival.

Just what you need!

The small, quaint cabin had all amenities needed during our quick evacuation weekend. The property owner, Jennifer, thought of every detail to ensure her guests had a worry-free stay. We highly recommend.
