About this property

Camp Patasa ('Perch' in Cajun French) is a beautiful non-smoking lakefront home with all the amenities of home in one of the most popular fishing destinations in the world. BASS MASTERS RATED TOLEDO BEND LAKE # 1 IN THE NATION FOR BASS FISHING! You can enjoy the great outdoors or just put your feet up and relax in this very spacious house.

You will enjoy the pier and seawall, Old Smokey barbeque pit, picnic table, and outdoor chairs around the stone firepit (bring firewood). So grab your binoculars and do a little bird-watching while sipping on a hot cup of coffee or your favorite beverage.

Of course, don't forget to enjoy the incredible fishing. For the golfer, we are located just minutes from the world-class Cypress Bend Marina and Golf Resort. Travel a few miles further to Toledo Town where you can find anything you need from tackle to antiques, as well as groceries and gasoline. The restaurants there serve wonderful breakfast, lunch and supper (dinner) with scrumptious seafood buffets and steaks.

This is a spacious 3/4 bedroom house with a large living area, fully equipped kitchen and two bathrooms. The main house has three bedrooms and a loft, which sleeps eight. There is also an additional "Bunk Room" which is attached to the main house and sleeps six and is available for an ADDITIONAL FEE. In the fall and winter warm those chilly nights and cold feet by the full fireplace in the living room, commercial fire logs only please. On site PARKING area can accommodate up to 6 vehicles, or 3 if they have boat trailers attached. Should your group have more than this, arrangements should be made at a local marina to park your trailers.

Should you choose to venture out, a wealth of attractions and things await you. Natchitoches, LA with all of its historic beauty is home to the multiple-week, Christmas Lights show which will dazzle you and your family’s holiday outings. Northwestern State University is also located in Natchitoches, but don’t miss the historic town of Many and Fort Jesup on the way there. Venture South about 45 minutes and see Leesville and Fort Polk, the home of our brave and heroic soldiers. Hodges Gardens, for those with a liking to flowers and beautiful landscapes, is also minutes away. To the North, drive to Zwolle and attend the famous Tamales’ Festival in the fall. The kids can also enjoy swimming at the beaches at Cypress Bend Marina and at the Louisiana Visitors Center at the foot of Pendleton Bridge all within a short distance from Camp Patasa.

Cabin in lake

Place was nice but it wasn’t very clean the floors were filthy, the tubs had thick gunk and globs of hair in them. The towels and sheets were left in the dryer not even dryed. The bunk house took forever to get in because the lock was messed up. I payed a lot of money for this place to had have these issues.

Nice location, VERY friendly property manager/contact

The house is as shown in pictures. There is not internet, but there is satellite TV. It does not actually sleep more than 8 unless you rent the bunk room, which costs extra, but we did know this going into the reservation. The house was moderately/reasonably clean. There were some small things like moldy shower curtains, a dead wasp on the bed/window sills that were not enough to call the owner about but enough to notice. I had to contact the property manager when I could not get the door open (my own fault) and she was incredibly nice and helpful. When we arrived on a Saturday there was a notice from July from the local water treatment center posted on the refrigerator when we arrived saying the water was unsafe to drink so we bought all of our water until we called Monday and found out it was safe to drink. This was irritating but did not ruin the trip. The dock and cleaning station are great. Most of the kitchen/cooking utensils we needed were already there which was great. The furniture was all a little older/worn, which was not a big deal in the living room, but the beds were the same. Every single person in our group, including some young people with no history of back problems, all woke up with stiffness and back and/or hip pain everyday. Overall we enjoyed our stay but it would have been really elevated to a great trip if we could have gotten a good nights sleep and if we had known the water was potable from the start.

About the host

Hosted by Kenneth

I am a South Louisianian whose family and friends have always enjoyed the Toledo Bend area. We decided to purchase a place on the lake and share it with others so they may enjoy our great outdoors with their family and friends.

Why they chose this property

The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful with only local traffic.

What makes this property unique

It is situated on the Negreet Creek portion of Toledo Bend Lake which is known by the old-timers for being one of the best Sac-a-Lait (Crappie or White Perch) fishing areas on the lake, day or night. We have also taken many large basses and Patasas (Perch/brim) within short distances from Camp Patasa. For those who enjoy trout-line fishing, you can extend your lines between two stumps feet off the pier and land monster catfish to fry up or put in a couvillon. If you happen to land a spotted cat larger than 42 lbs, please take a picture and send it to me. Enjoy!
