Lake Area Adventures General Manager Tim Robles said the investment is forward-looking and seeks to bring “entertainment and adventure” to Southwest Louisiana and Southeast Texas.

“Our goal is to expand the entertainment and recreation opportunities for people of all ages,” Robles said. “This is going to give families, groups of friends and even businesses a place to come together, enjoy a great meal and have some fun. We’re excited to see this dream become a reality.”

Lake Area Adventures will continue to offer boat and kayak rentals, water tours and other experiences from its current Common Street location. 

The new facility, located at 1337 Country Club Road, is set to open in 2023.
