Item Description

Come out to Stella Plantation for the rare opportunity to experience how Louisiana’s most well-known crustacean is grown, caught, cooked and delivered to your table. 

You and 7 of your guests will enjoy a scenic hayride through Stella Plantation as you head back to the diverse habitat that is home to much of Louisiana’s most recognized wildlife. Upon reaching the crawfish ponds, 2 by 2, take turns heading out into the ponds on our specially designed crawfishing boats to experience one of the oldest Louisiana traditions. Guests will have the opportunity to lift the traps from the water, collect the crawfish, bait and replace them in the pond. Or watch as the fisherman demonstrate. While you crawfish, the remainder of the group will be set up under the shady oak trees that line the ponds with a delicious 40lb boil of Stella’s own crawfish. Our crawfish have a stellar reputation of always being red, spicy, big and delicious! A standard boil includes crawfish, corn, and potatoes as well as your water and soft drinks. Enjoy local cuisine at its freshest in the very spot it’s caught.
