Whether you're looking to kick back and relax in the lap of luxury, dance until you drop, or savor our spectacular weather, Southwest Louisiana/Lake Charles has your pleasure. From slots to table games to horseracing, three casinos provide a wealth of excitement that never ends. If the great outdoors is more your style, check out the Creole Nature Trail All-American Road. Renowned as one of the top birding destinations in the country, the trail offers a rare opportunity to commune with nature up-close and personal while indulging in world-class fishing and crabbing. Experience a legendary Louisiana crawfish boil, where eating with your hands is not just acceptable, it's the rule. Get a second helping of duck and andouille gumbo, but leave room for that slice of pecan pie. And when you're ready to work off those calories, Southwest Louisiana always has a celebration that'll get you moving. Renowned as the Festival Capital of Louisiana, we host more than 75 fairs, festivals and special events each year, complete with food, music, dancing, and laughter. This includes a Mardi Gras extravaganza second only to New Orleans, and our two-week long celebration known as the Contraband Days Pirate Festival. No matter the time of year, there's always something happening in Southwest Louisiana/Lake Charles. We consider ourselves a gumbo pot full of great activities and people, but we're still missing one important ingredient---you! When planning your next vacation, choose a recipe for success. Choose Southwest Louisiana/Lake Charles!
