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!!!

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.

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.

Wow I'm really sorry you didn't notice in the pics of the listing that the cabin is a little "tiny house" . The bed is a Queen.sized bed. You can see the lake from the porch, but as stated in the listing, we are directly across the street from Caddo Lake & a boat launch. There is a rod & a hook in the bathroom to hang clothes but most people probably live out of their bag or use our large dresser with drawers. July in Louisiana is super hot! Our window units cool down the tiny cabin within a few minutes. I hope ya'll were comfortable as soon as you turned it on! Most couples LOVE our cabins, I'm sorry it did not meet your expectations.

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.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback! We’re so glad to hear the cabin was clean, comfortable, and quiet for a good night’s rest. Just to clarify — the boat launch is directly across the street, only about a minute’s walk away. The kayaks are indeed shared among the small group of cabins (4) on the property, and we appreciate you bringing your own as well! The A/C issue has since been resolved, and it’s now cooling efficiently even on warmer days. We’re always working to keep our guests comfortable and to provide clear, accurate descriptions. We also have 24 vacation rentals to suit all budgets, and the other locations have 10 plus kayaks. It is rare for all 4 of these cabins to be rented simultaneously. We truly appreciate your detailed feedback and hope you’ll visit again soon to enjoy more time out on the water! Warm regards, Jennifer Pelican’s Nest – Caddo Lake Cabin 3

This cottage is perfect for a couple for the weekend. The cottage was clean and neat and very nicely decorated. It had everything we needed and was in a very quiet neighborhood.

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.
