A lasting impression is created as you glide almost silently through Caddo Lake's many sloughs and waterways aboard the "Graceful Ghost", a replica of an 1800's era steamboat. The "Graceful Ghost" is a live steam driven vessel with a working paddle-wheel and wood fired boiler. The sound of her steam whistle will captivate you. Sit back and enjoy the ride as you watch the diverse wildlife and the many species of aquatic plants inhabiting Caddo Lake. We will take you on a timeless journey among majestic cypress trees draped in stately, surreal Spanish moss. Of course, to get the most of Caddo Lake, you should  consider staying at one of the area bed and breakfasts on or near the lake.

Caddo Lake has been described in many ways, with "beautiful" being the most widely used word. View our photo gallery.  Virtually everyone who has ever been to Caddo will tell you that one word is simply not enough, because Caddo Lake is so much more. Mystifying and mystical, enchanting and delightful, definitely prehistoric, uniquely haunting and eerie. The list of descriptions is long and ever changing, as is Caddo Lake.

 


Caddo Lake is renowned for it's sheer beauty and tranquillity.  The Graceful Ghost slips along the still water of Caddo Lake providing a most delightful cruise experience for all guests. Dallas Morning News journalist Steve Blow described it's  effect on him in an article for Dallas Magazine: There are plenty of pretty spots scattered about East Texas. Pretty and predictable. But one is mystical. Caddo Lake is unlike any place you have ever been. Caddo Lake is 35,000 acres of sloughs, bayous, swamp and cypress trees. 'A huge water forest', one friend described it.

"Yet - I swear it's true - there is something even beyond it's eerie beauty. In the upper recesses of Caddo, you can feel the hand of the supernatural. It tickles at the back of your neck and draws your boat along. Something dark and primeval pervades Caddo. A timelessness. As you move slowly along the lake, you half expect a prehistoric creature to raise it's head from the murky water."
