Angler Bay Waterfront Camp - Fish, Crab & Relax! Enjoy the best of Hackberry

Welcome to The Swanderosa — Your Lake Calcasieu Getaway!

Escape to The Swanderosa, a relaxing waterfront getaway on beautiful Calcasieu Lake. Whether you're coming to fish, crab, hunt, hit the casino, or simply spend a few days relaxing on the water, The Swanderosa is the perfect home base for your Southwest Louisiana adventure.

🎣 Fish, Crab & Enjoy the Water

Some of the best fishing in Louisiana is just minutes from your door. Enjoy easy access to Lake Calcasieu (Big Lake) for incredible inshore fishing, or head south for an offshore fishing adventure.

You'll have full access to our private waterfront pier and boat dock. The pier is shared only with our sister camp next door and may be used by guests staying there during your visit.
Bring the rods, drop a crab line, or simply sit outside and enjoy being on the water.

Beautiful camp! Very clean and looks new. Beds were comfy and we had enough beds and room for the 7 of us. Kitchen has all the essentials you need. Washer & dryer came in handy. We loved the view of the water and shipping channel. We had a constant breeze on the balcony which was so nice just to sit and relax. We were able to fish off the dock. David was very easy to communicate with whenever I messaged him. I would definitely recommend this nice camp which is more like a Lake House. The area we were in all had beautiful camps and well kept up.
