Large family & dog friendly with great reviews off Big Cypress Bayou/Caddo Lake

Enjoy the beauty of Big Cypress Bayou on Caddo Lake surrounded by Spanish moss draped cypress trees. Conveniently located right off of the river by the Hwy 43 boat ramp. 2 person canoe and 3 kayaks available for use.

Recently updated cozy and comfortable 4 bed/2 bath house walking distance to boat ramp which provides easy access for all boating fun. Lots of room for gathering in the living room or the large kitchen table. Extensive updates includes renovated kitchen with stainless appliances, internal and external lighting and paint, new grill and smokeless solo firepit. Caddo has lots of great fishing holes along the river and across the lake. Slough access to river in rear of house. Perfect for fishermen, water sports enthusiasts and friend group getaways!

With it's warm and welcoming atmosphere and beautiful natural surroundings its the perfect place to unwind, reconnect with friends or loved ones and create great memories no matter the occasion. Enjoy your morning coffee on one of the porches then later an evening barbecue with your family and friends. Spend time relaxing on the porches or by the fire pit.

5 minutes from Caddo State Park and the Caddo Wildlife Refuge, 10 minutes from historical Jefferson, 20 minutes from Marshall and 40 minutes from Shreveport, LA casinos!

Fun at the River Runner

Stayed with family in this home away from home. The River Runner had plenty room inside and for outdoor living. We enjoyed how close the backwater was to the house and were able to keep our flat bottom in the water for quick access. A quick boat ride to the lake and more food than we could eat at the Big Pines Lodge. We will be coming back soon!

Spring Break

Really enjoyed our stay at the River Runner this past Spring Break. We had 2 families of 4 and had plenty of room. Was clean and well stocked with whatever you might need to prepare a meal. Brought 2 boats and were able to tie them up without any trouble in the back of the house. Also enjoyed the Solo Fire pit in the evenings. Host, David was very friendly and helpful. Even took us out for a boat tour around the lake which we really enjoyed. Would definitely recommend and will hopefully be back in the future.

Caddo's Corner of Paradise

Pictures could never capture the perfection of this gem. Extremely helpful, gracious host! Immaculately clean with everything anyone would need to feel right at home. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out with their own space. Dining space for 14 indoor and 10 outdoor. The back decks and use of kayaks and canoe was over the top. We spent the first hour after our 9 hour trip just sitting on the back deck taking in the peaceful serenity. My only worry is that this amazing place will be booked constantly and we will have to fight for our chance to stay again.

Good experience

We had a really unusual experience, but can't say enough good things about the owner, David. The area experienced a really heavy rain the day we arrived, David left his own home early the next morning, which was at risk of being flooded, and came to warn us of flooded roads. We were in danger of being trapped, but thankfully were able to get out in time. David has been super accommodating about working with us to arrange another time to come back and we look forward to returning in the summer. Please don't let the flood story keep you from booking this property. That was just unfortunate timing on our part. The property is very roomy, the kitchen is well furnished, the location is really good, and the owner is as nice as they come. I wouldn't hesitate to return.
