Cissie by the Sea is a clean, comfortable and charming place right on the Big Lake. Sara was very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed for a memorable stay. Sipping coffee while the morning sun lit up the water and watching the fabulous sunsets were the bookends to our days. And we caught lots of fish!

The perfect Staycation

We are from Lake Charles and chose to do a staycation this year with a new baby! This camp was the perfect place for our little family. We enjoyed hanging out and cooking in the yard near the water while the kids played, night fishing off the dock, fishing in Big Lake, and cooling off inside while still having the perfect view of the lake! We hope to make our staycation a tradition!

Very nice home!!! Sara was great and helpful planning our stay!! If you like to fish, we caught plenty of fish from the dock including Sheephead! If you plan on bringing your own boat, we recommend researching where to park it. The wind didn’t allow us to use their personal slip (not the owner’s fault) Mother Nature had other plans for us. Overall, it is a beautiful home and the sunsets from the screened in porch provided a great view and kept bugs away. Peaceful and relaxing!If you are wanting to find seashells, we recommend Cameron beach, very secluded and lots of colorful seashells to find. Thank you Sara for making sure we were well taken care of!
