Why Lake Charles/Southwest Louisiana?

One of the most prominent aspects of Cajun culture and Southern charm is the natural willingness for people to go out of their way to treat company or complete strangers like family. That spills over into everything that we do. Along with our state-of-the-art meeting, convention and sports facilities comes the "lagniappe" or "a little something extra" that we cannot help but provide. From unique experiences with our authentic Cajun cuisine, culture and music to side trips along the Creole Nature Trail All-American Road or attractions in our Charpentier Historic District or anything in between, we have a destination that caters to many tastes and a dedicated staff to make sure that planning your group's stay is pleasurable and memorable.
