Set along the West Fork of the Calcasieu River in Sulphur, Louisiana, this raised waterfront cabin offers a distinctive setting for fishing, boating, and weekend recreation. Built in 1990, the approximately 600-square-foot property features two bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and around 140 feet of river frontage on approximately half an acre of leased land.
The elevated cabin features green metal siding, a matching metal roof, and a covered parking area beneath the living space with room for up to three vehicles. A gravel driveway winds among mature pine and cypress trees, while an exterior cargo lift provides convenient access for moving groceries, coolers, and outdoor equipment to the upper level.
Inside, the open-concept layout combines pine-paneled walls, wood-look flooring, and corrugated metal ceilings for a rustic river-camp atmosphere. The kitchen includes custom wood cabinetry, a butcher block island, electric range, stainless steel vent hood, refrigerator, double-basin sink, and pantry storage. The living area connects directly to the kitchen, creating a comfortable shared space.
Two bedrooms provide sleeping accommodations, while the listing reports three full bathrooms, including one on the ground level. Additional features include an enclosed, spray-foam-insulated storage area with rubberized flooring and LED lighting, along with an outdoor laundry setup.
The covered rear porch stretches across the back of the cabin, offering space for outdoor seating and relaxing while enjoying views toward the river and surrounding trees. A wooden walkway leads to the private dock, making the waterfront the centerpiece of this recreational property.
One important detail for prospective buyers is that the land is leased rather than owned. The reported annual lease payment is $4,750, and the sale is described as requiring cash or private financing. Buyers should carefully review the lease duration, renewal and transfer provisions, ongoing costs, and responsibilities for maintaining the cabin and dock. Flood exposure, insurance availability, utilities, and the condition of the elevated structure should also be verified.
Located in Sulphur with access to the wider Lake Charles area, this property offers a compact waterfront retreat with a private dock, covered outdoor living, and useful storage. Its combination of river frontage and recreational features may appeal to buyers seeking a fishing camp or weekend getaway, provided the leased-land arrangement fits their plans.
