camps on big lake

[simplepeddler]

Are there affordable 150K or so camps on big lake?

I have only been with a couple guides umpteed years ago.

not familiar with the area.

what's the drive from Baton Rouge to big like? Shoter then heading to Venice?

[wtretrievers]

Driving Time is about the same.

its alot more scenic from BR to BL... not from BR to Venice.... im not sure about the camps..... I think BR to BL is a little longer

[specktator]

I would have to think BR to Big Lake would be shorter by prob an hour.

From BR it takes me abt 3hrs to get to Venice and abt 2.5hrs to BL.

Good luck swinging a Camp at Heberts landing for 150K.... Lots go from $30-100K ..... You looking around 175-220 for a nice camp

Still cheaper than Grand Isle...........and you guys don't have the Quaker State option.

I wonder just how much all the oil stuff will affect the value of camps in the affected areas?
Condo's in Alabama?
Florida?

Dang, camps are cheap at biglake!

The river, a lot goes around 90,000-120,000, and the homes go anywhere from 200,000 to-750,000 and a few homes in the 750-1m range.
got a trailor few houes down, going for 250,000 i think

From I-10 bridge over Miss. river to Calcasieu Pt landing is about 2 hours 15 minutes.

I'd rather drive BR to BL than BR to Venice hands down, espically pulling a boat.

I live on the East side of Big Lake at Heberts Marina. There are a few affordable lots left in the subdivision I live in, they went up this year to 40k, they are about a half acre in size. They are a few hundred yards from the lake and are very private, one way in , one way out. There are 5acre tracts on the lake side south of the marina, those are in the 250k range. Thats about it for lots. Just about everything out here is camps and they rarely come up for sale, when they do the ones that are in the affordable range say 175 to 250 are usually sold before the end of the day. Since the last two hurricanes we faced just about all the older camps have been rebuilt and raised above flood plain, the others were torn down. Your best bet would be to buy one of the available lots left then build. Restrictions are not that bad, you could build you a nice camp in the 200k range with the cost of the lot. The drive from Heberts to Baton rouge is about 2 1/2 hours.
