Pointe CoupéeThe sunrises over our beautiful rivers open up this wonderful

playground of fun for all ages. I am talking about the Creole Cajun Rivers of False River and Old River. These two rivers were left behind by old man River himself (the Mighty Mississippi) when he changed his course, around 1699. These little treasures were discovered by the French & Native Americans when they decided to take a detour through the dense woods…and Wow!…There they were. First, False River meaning “cut off point,” then within a small distance further North was Old River, which was still connected by a small outlet to the Mississippi. Did you know? Pointe Coupée was the oldest established community in the lower Mississippi River valley, even before New Orleans. I wonder who really started “let the good times roll,” because in a quieter way, that is what we do.

We may be small, off the beaten path on Hwy. 1, which is the longest single lane road in the United States, but we know how to make our visitors welcome and feel at home. I can just see the old paddle wheels going up and down the rivers as the travelers enjoyed the beautiful scenery along the river banks side. The rustling of the green willow trees, dancing on the waters, while the giant cypress stood towering up, showing off all their siblings as stumps (knees) in the water. All along the wayside of both rivers are numerous waterfowl to be seen by boat or car such as blue herons, egrets, kingfishers, green head mallard ducks, some pelicans & ospreys. If you are lucky, you will spot way up high our homestead bald eagles. They travel from river to river, for they know the fishing is good around here.

Both rivers are lined with historic plantations for the viewing, businesses, and lodging. False River, is the one with most anything your looking for, because Old River is less inhabited, more of a fishing and hunting community. Old River is not to be left out, with the leaves changing, north wind blowing, the call of the wild brings out the hunters from everywhere. Our woods are plentiful and produce great hunting for deer, rabbit, squirrel, doves and even coons. Several lodges are available which offer hunting trips for the adventurous outdoors men and women. Let’s not forget the duck hunts, because up above

you will daily view flocks of teal, mallards, grays and other species following their southern pathway along the Mississippi flyway. We keep our secrets, even though we are not Arkansas. Our hunting is good but we rough it in a nice way (out our backdoors).

Fishing on both lakes are great now. Big fish moving in closer feeding, Bass, stripers, sac-a-lait (white Perch), blue gill bream, and catfish are waiting to bite. In fact, False River is one of Louisiana’s trophy lakes. What a thrill and challenge it is to any angler.

You know Mark Twain wrote of the adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer along the Mississippi River, I just bet he was talking about False River and Old River because they are fun and yours to enjoy if you come to visit. You know, once you’ve been here, you’ll be back. I call them the Cajun Tahoe’s of the south, only thing missing are the mountains, our levee’s replace that as you drive around the rivers overlooking the dark green waters & scenic byways.

Come see us, a smile is waiting for you and wonderful memories to be made.
