Chauvin, LA Camp Rental: A Fishing Camp Right on Bayou Petit Caillou
Updated: 1 day ago
In south Louisiana, a "camp" means a place on the water where you sleep, cook, and fish. If you are looking for a Chauvin, LA camp rental, Pelican's View Lodge is a whole camp for one group, sitting right on Bayou Petit Caillou at 7464 Edgewater Drive, Chauvin, LA 70344. That puts you at the bottom of LA-56 in the Cocodrie area, where the road ends and the marsh opens up.
What you get at the camp
The whole lodge is rented to one group. It sleeps 10 in 3 bedrooms with 2.5 baths, with 1 King bed, 1 Queen bed, 1 Single bed, and 3 bunk beds.
Inside, there is a full kitchen, free Wi-Fi, a TV, air conditioning, and a washer and dryer. Outside there is an outdoor grill and free parking. There is no hot tub.
Camp features built for fishing
A good camp is judged by its water setup. At Pelican's View Lodge you get:
A private boat launch
2 boat slips
Boat trailer parking
Lights for night fishing
2 fish cleaning stations
That means no waiting at a public launch, no hauling your boat back and forth to a marina, and a clean place to fillet the day's catch.
Where you can fish from Chauvin
From the camp you have quick boat access to some of the best water on the Louisiana coast:
Terrebonne Bay
Lake Pelto
Lake Barre
Lake Boudreaux
The barrier islands at Last Island (Isles Dernieres) and Timbalier Island
Gulf of Mexico rigs offshore
Inshore trips target speckled trout and redfish, with black drum, sheepshead, and flounder in season. Offshore runs head to the rigs for snapper and other Gulf species. For seasonal timing, read our season-by-season guide.
