About this property

Some might ask why... we say Y Knott?! Lake Front home with boat launch.

Welcome to your retreat on the shore of beautiful Toledo Bend Lake - The Y-Knott Lodge! Centrally located on Lanan Bay just off the main body of the lake, Y Knott Lodge is within minutes of Pendleton Bridge, world-class Cypress Bend golf course, and Toledo Town with a fishing tackle superstore, real estate agents, banks, restaurants, supermarket, gas and convenience stores, and more.

The Lodge has had a busy 2021! New sea wall, larger boathouse, larger lakefront yard, concrete steps from home to the lake, larger new deck, roofline extended over deck, new roof, & all new glass in the entire home! If you've never been... its time to come! If you've been here before - You're going to love the house even more!

Nestled on a hillside overlooking the lake, you'll enjoy this quiet area with plenty of privacy. You can enjoy the first light of dawn and relax at the end of the day looking out over the lake from the large deck or boat house... or even from the comfort of the Great Room.

The great, mid-lake location on the Louisiana side of Toledo Bend puts you close to the action for major fishing tournaments - many launch from Cypress Bend or San Miguel Parks - just minutes away.

Barbecue steaks or the day's catch on the large deck overlooking the lake. Your boat is always convenient in the private boat house and you may enjoy fishing from the bulkhead or dock in the evening or at night - the boat house is well lit and there are outlets to plug in your boat batteries. There is even a "hatch" in the deck with lighting above the water for some great night fishing! There is a private boat launch on property. (Please note - the launch is concrete on a relatively steep, curved incline)

Enjoy your day in the ample yard with benches, firepit, swing, and Adirondack chairs. Benches even line the sea wall so you can relax and catch bream off the bulkhead.

'Great Room' is the only way you can describe it...Plenty of space for everyone... yet great for a cozy fire. When your tired of playing Foosball, step out to the deck for a game of Cornhole. Later relax on the deck and watch the stars twinkle at night - or catch some rays to work on that suntan during the afternoon.

The dining room provides just the right ambiance for an elegant meal - or a great place for the family to get together for a board game or card game in the evening. The dining area provides seating for eight.

The well equipped kitchen has everything you will need - dishes, utensils, Stainless stove, dishwasher, & microwave, coffee maker, waffle iron, and blender.

The kitchen opens to the Great Room via a breakfast bar.

You are sure to get a great night's rest and be ready for fun-filled days on the lake when you stay at the lodge. The tastefully decorated bedrooms include all high-thread-count linens for your comfort, Roku televisions, and Blueray DVD players. The large Master Bedroom features a King size bed and connecting bath. The second bedroom downstairs features a Queen size bed. The roomy upstairs bedroom has 2 Queen beds and connects to a full bath. The second upstairs bedroom has queen bed with a lake view!

The home does have WiFi.

So peaceful and beautiful.

It was a pleasure to stay at such a beautiful property. Right away you can tell how much hard work and labor of love this home received. Fully stocked and down right gorgeous. Thomas and his wife were incredible kind and made sure my wife and I were pleased. We will go back if they will have us again! Thank you.

Incredible views

The best thing about the property is the back porch area. The views of the lake are incredible. If you have a boat, the boat dock area is built well and protects your boat from harsh north wind and waves.

Perfect weekend

Our 2 families with teen/preteens stayed here for a relaxing long weekend. The house had everything we needed and the location was perfect. It was conveniently located on the lake and only a short drive to grocery/tackle store. The boat dock was nice, easy put in, and well maintained. Shaded patio was perfect with plenty of seating and breathtaking views. The host stocked the kitchen & laundry room with plenty of essentials. We hope to get back to Toledo Bend and would absolutely stay here again.

Awesome home!

We absolutely loved this home! We come to Toledo Bend every year for a family vacation and this home was our pick this year. Everything was accessible and clean. If we needed anything they were always a call or text away. They even attempted to accommodate my family when the power went out due to the storm. Wonderful home. We look forward for booking next year!

The perfect getaway spot!

This home was a gem. It’s nestled in a quiet neighborhood with a great view of the lake. We were able to launch and dock our boats on the property where the fish were plentiful! The outdoor deck overlooking the lake was where we spent most of our time - we did not want to leave. Highly recommend booking.

Perfect view

The house with view was perfect for our stay. The private boat launch was the selling point for us. We enjoyed the pier and caught fish directly off of it. Boat slip for the boat was perfect when the lake got a little rough. Wound def recommend to family and friends.

Great Lake for Multiple Activities

We enjoyed the boat launch on-site for the convenience of both the party barge and bass boat. The outside fishing pier was top-notch with everything we needed to have a great weekend family getaway. The views from the gorgeous windows and beautiful outside deck were superb! The Lake House was very clean when we arrived. We did not catch anything except a turtle and a great time, but I will bring my family back here again! The stairs going upstairs were a little tricky, but the perfect spot for the grandkids to have their own space. Very nicely stocked with all the essentials.

Needs some work

There are some areas of this property that need attention. The upstairs bath leak through the downstairs ceiling rendering it unusable. All guest had to bath in the one downstairs bath. The kitchen was overrun with ants causing us to loose some food on the first night. Critters roamed the attic every night which was a bit disturbing for upstairs guest. The den couch was broken down to the point that it would only seat one person at a time. This house needs some attention before it should be available for rental

Take out the trash!!

The house was a nice older home lovely location.. We went to fish, swim and relax. Fishing was no good.The biggest negative to the property where the owners always on the verge of being rude.. Over serval e-mails because of questions we had we started figuring this out. After arriving we found a note taped to frig.. Also almost rude, we got to the point where we ran out of trash bags and because of the note stating you would not receive deposit back if all trash wasn't bagged we emailed asking where in the house we might find some.. In return email we where told that it was not something they supplied "even though it clearly states they do on there website" and that we could drive to the Exxon and buy some. Well here's my problem we where on our vacation in a town we knew nothing about and being told @ 10:00pm to go get some bags.. So don't rely on what they say they provide! We went and got trash bags bagged everything up packed and went home three hrs early. Can't feel comfortable in this home due to the list of must do's and owners manners. We've stayed at many lake house all lovely and nice owners and I've never felt a need to write a review until this stay.
