Swamp Life #1

Swamp Life is located on beautiful Caddo lake. Swamp Life has 1 full size bed, 1 twin size bed, 1 bathroom. We offer a 2-burner electric cook top for your convenience. You must bring your own cooking utensils as we DO-NOT provide any. Swamp Life also has a full-size refrigerator, microwave & coffee maker (2 coffee cups/2 maxwell house coffee packets, creamer & sugar). All bed linens & bath towels/wash cloths (one small bar of soap) are provided. NO-SMOKING of ANY KIND in this room. (There is a $100.00 room recovery fee to cover the cost of restoring room to a smoke-free condition) Swamp Life faces the street side of Uncertain Lodge & Inn with beautiful Caddo lake behind you. The Uncertain Lodge & Inn is located on a picturesque piece of property with direct access to historic Caddo Lake. Both the Lodge & Inn overlook the sprawling grounds leading right up to the water's edge. In addition to the beautiful views, our property also boasts a fishing pier and is next door to a local boat launch. When you are not out enjoying the water, we have a covered grilling patio with picnic tables and 3 charcoal grills (bring your own charcoal/lighter fluid & grilling utensils). Time spent at the Uncertain Lodge & Inn is sure to give you a relaxing escape. From grilling and playing games in the lake front yard, to fishing and boating activities on the 25,400-acre lake, you will never run out of memory making activities. Great fun and family activities that would make you want to stay longer. So don't forget to bring your fishing pole & camera.
UPON ARRIVAL, THE ROOM WILL BE UNLOCKED AND THE KEY WILL BE ON THE TABLE. THERE IS NO OFFICE LOCATED ON PREMISES.
We hope to see you soon!

Good location for the activities we had planned. We were able to book a rm. that sleeps 3. You book on line and you are told the check in and out times and that your door will be unlocked and the key on the table. Same way at check out. Leave door unlocked and key on the table. No staff is present. Actually, the door was locked 30 minutes past check in necessitating a call to the contact #. Someone showed maybe 10min. later. The water from the faucet was cloudy. The temp. was hard for us to figure out and the air filter was very dirty. Since I was not expecting high end accommodations that is why I say it was o.k. There was a coffee pot, fridge, microwave, shower and no closet.

Nice Caddo Lake Getaway!

The room was small but clean and had everything we needed. Enjoyed the easy lake access, where we were able to leave the boat in the water at their small dock. Just to note, in case you miss the fine print, this is a lodge where half of the rooms front the lake and the other half from the street. You’re still able to use all amenities and the owners were very accommodating and friendly!

Could not communicate with the host to find out how to get into cabin or the directions. Ended up calling the owner of hotel directly to find out information.Leak under refrigerator with water in puddle on floor in kitchen.Shower curtain rod fell on both of us as we showered hitting us in the headNo wash rags to use in shower.No paper towels.People partied outside close to the wall of our cabin until after midnight so we could not sleep. Tried to call and text owner several times with noise complaint with no response. Would not recommend this place and would NEVER go back.

Wonderful place

We enjoyed our stay very much. The motel is lovely and our hosts were very nice. They made sure we had everything we needed and gave us recommendations on were to eat. Having boat slips on the property was a life saver. We would definitely stay again.

Two horrible nights to remember. It seemed like the owner of the property had a couple of parties in the patio area next to our room both nights we stayed there. We had trouble sleeping, and we woke up several times to screams, barks from the owner’s dog, and people singing. There was little to no privacy, and the folks we encountered were not particularly friendly or polite to us. I can’t imagine that what we experienced was unique to us, so I have a hard time believing the reviews I found online after being there ourselves. Very disappointing.
