Relaxing Retreat

Host and family next door were friendly and welcoming:) Perfect location for my husband who loves to fish in his new boat, and for me who loves site seeing and searching for a location to buy or build a camp. We have friends nearby and love the lake access. Returning in September.

Perfect Getaway!

Made our annual trip to Molly's, and once again, everything was amazing! The cabin has all of the amenities you'd want or need. Combine that with a gorgeous view, friendly neighbors, and a perfect split deck (half covered, half open), and it's the perfect recipe for a stress free vacation. We'll definitely be back!

Caney trip

Very private and quiet. Perfect for fishing trip. Only negative was little room to park boat and no ramp close. The old boat on lift should be trailered for guests to launch n park one time. Great place

Bless place

Very peaceful. Much needed slow down. Fishing was mind relaxing. Had place to cook outside on the flat grill , or barbecue on the pit. We had the best neighbors. Thanks for everything. This was our second time staying here. Next time maybe we come with Grandbaby’s.

Perfect Get away

My Grandson loves to fish and we go a lot together so I was hoping to carry him to Caney for a couple days. He invited a friend of his, well the cabin was perfect for the get away, I was able to tie my boat up to the dock which is actually the cabin itself. the cabin was very clean, and boat or not provides access to the lake for fishing, beautiful setting out on the deck. Mr Beach who is Miss Molly's dad lives next door and he was great and has a beautiful place as well. Highly recommend this booking if going to Caney

Perfect getaway

Clean and quiet cottage. Enjoyed my much needed vacation. Caney lake being one of the premier bass fishing lakes in Louisiana makes being on the water even better. Molly was a wonderful person to work with and she will be hearing from us soon to book another trip. If you looking for a place on the water to get away from it all this is the place.. thanks Molly

Caney Lake Cottage

Host was extremely accommodating. Allowed me to check in a couple hours early when the weather interrupted my fishing plans. It’s conveniently located. Only a few minutes from 2 different boat ramps. About 10-12 minutes to the nearest town with Walmart, fast food, convenience stores etc. Cottage was very clean and well kept. Bed was very comfortable. Cottage is out on the water so when you walk out the door you walk out onto the pier where you can relax and fish. Gas grill, table, chairs were provided. Would definitely recommend this place for a small group, couple, or individual. 10 out of 10

Awesome little lake house

Would probably be ideal for a couple with up to three kids. We had ourselves and our friends up there to celebrate an anniversary. Had a great time hanging out on the dock fishing. Fishing was a bit slow, didn’t get anything on bait but some smaller catfish. Not enough to fry up; luckily Hooks Marina was just a 12 min drive and they had a live band Saturday night so that was fun!
