Boyette’s Resort 

You’ll find that our most important goal is to make you feel at home! We pride ourselves on clean rooms and plenty of hospitality. The owner, Judy Capps, is an outstanding lady. You couldn’t ask for a better hostess. She has poured her heart and soul into Boyette’s Resort since 1994. You’ll find her to be very knowledgeable about the Reelfoot Lake area and its history.

Boyette’s Resort was founded in 1921 by the late Ms. Nanny Boyette.  Judy has carried on the tradition of providing a comfortable place for visitors to Reelfoot Lake.  Hunters, fishermen, bird watchers, and vacationers will all find Boyette’s Resort to be a wonderfully inviting place to stay.

For fine food, Boyette’s Dining Room is located just next door and the Reelfoot Lake State Park Visitor Center is across the road. We invite you to come and stay with us.

More Than 100 Years at Reelfoot Lake

For generations, visitors have come to Reelfoot Lake to fish, hunt, watch wildlife, attend local events, and simply enjoy the unique beauty of the area. Boyette’s Resort has been part of that Reelfoot Lake experience for more than a century.

Today, guests can choose from our cabins and houses for everything from fishing and hunting trips to family getaways and special events. We also offer conveniences such as boat trailer parking with electrical hookups, fishing and hunting licenses, Reelfoot Preservation Permits, and assistance arranging local fishing and hunting guides.

The history surrounding Boyette’s Resort is an important part of who we are. Visit our Yesteryears pages to see historic photographs and read Judy’s memories and family stories about life around Reelfoot Lake.

A Place to Stay Through Every Reelfoot Lake Season

Reelfoot Lake draws visitors throughout the year for many different reasons. Spring and early summer bring fishermen looking for crappie and other popular species, while fall and winter bring duck and goose hunters to the area. Bird watchers and nature lovers also visit Reelfoot Lake to see bald eagles, waterfowl, and the unusual landscape created by the lake’s famous cypress trees.

The area also hosts special events that bring visitors from across the region, including the Reelfoot Lake Arts & Crafts Festival and seasonal events at Reelfoot Lake State Park. Whatever brings you to the lake, Boyette’s Resort offers a convenient home base while you explore the area.

Because reservations are handled directly by phone, guests can ask questions before choosing a cabin or house. Whether you need accommodations for a fishing trip, hunting trip, family visit, festival weekend, or a quiet getaway, we’ll be happy to help you find lodging that fits your stay.

Boyette’s Resort may have more than a century of history, but our goal remains simple: provide a welcoming place for guests to enjoy everything Reelfoot Lake has to offer.
