We are proud to welcome you to Cissie by the Sea, which is fully remodeled after Hurricanes Laura and Delta in 2020. We are back and ready to have some fun, so come be a part of our new chapter! The camp gets its name from local legend Cissie McLeod, who also happened to be our mother. We aim to provide a place your whole family can enjoy, just as ours has for decades! Fish on!

Visor By The Sea

Everything was very neat and clean, as usual (we’ve stayed several times before). Newly remodeled kitchen very nice and convenient with everything you need if you want to cook. Large island (in kitchen) and filled with cooking implements of every kind. Large frig and convenient stove and sink with many windows to see outside and over the lake. New window coverings for more privacy are nice. Large dining area and comfortable seating in living area. Huge screened in porch with lots of light and fans for circulation. Plenty seating with tables and nets and a kayak. Beautiful view of the lake and very peaceful sunsets. Having a boat would be great. Nice neighborhood if you like to walk or ride a bike. We could not get the TV to work for regular programming. There was a remote that came with the TV, and we tried to work it to get the news, but maybe you need a universal remote for that and regular programming. Thank you for having us. This is a very relaxing setting.

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!

Great location

My son and I had a great stay at this property. It is very clean and well equipped. The lighted pier is very well constructed, convenient and a perfect fishing platform. Unfortunately, when we were there the fish were not biting, but we had fun regardless.

Stay Cissie by the Sea

We enjoyed our stay at the Cissie by the sea this past weekend 5/16-5/18. Everything stated in the listing is correct. the property was perfect for what we needed and wanted. Our only downfall was, there was no bait shop close by (Not Sara's fault). Make sure you get your live shrimp prior to arriving. The fishing was on fire even with Frozen shrimp and artificial. We will be back for future stays.

Weekend Stay

The house and property are well kept and clean. It has a nice pier that extends out into Calcasieu Lake. The pier has electricity, running water, and lights that can be turned on to fish at night. Both the kids and adults enjoyed a relaxing weekend on Calcasieu Lake and near by areas.

Wonderful Spring Break

Thank you so much for sharing your fishing cabin with our family. It was so nostalgic like being back on the bayou of our childhood. We really enjoyed fishing and crabbing off the awesome pier. Unfortunately, the weather was uncooperative for boating, but we didn't mind. My favorite time was prepping dinner while watching perfect sunsets on the back porch. We will definitely be booking again soon for summer!

Great cozy place set up for fishing!

This was my second stay here with friends and family. I hope for many more in the future! The house is cozy and modern. Easy 10 minute drive to a little local grocery store. The dock is set up nicely for fishing. Boat launch is about 100 yards down the road. It's really a lovely little house and the hosts were extremely accommodating.
