About this property

Y-Knott Lodge! Relax on the shores of Toledo Bend!

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.

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 shared 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 some relaxation 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, bring you streaming network passwords for the ROKU televisions.

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.

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.

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.

Good time

Great view! Hill is brutal if you are going up and down to dock alot . Beds very clean, floors clean , kitchen clean , outside area very clean. Pics look A little nicer than actual. Soft spot in dinning room floor that is a little sketchy. Mold, mildew upstairs in ac vents and on top bathroom doorframe. Needs dusting and cob webs removed in living room by Toledo bend picture and a few other areas. Caught alot of fish off dock. Better have 4 wheel drive when launching! Overall we had a great time! Host was very responsive and helpful!

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 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.
