About Stelly's Gulfway
The Big Question: Who Bought Gulfway?
Meet Shawn and Danielle Stelly, proud Kaplan natives and the new owners of Gulfway. With Shawn’s 20-year career in pipelining and Danielle’s work in Texas, they’ve always shared a deep love for the great outdoors. Their first date was spent fishing at the Cameron Ferry, and their honeymoon? A goose hunt in Missouri! Now, with their one-year-old daughter, Brinnah Marie, they’re back home, ready to carry on Gulfway’s legacy.
Why Gulfway?
Shawn’s passion for hunting and fishing is undeniable, and Danielle believes wholeheartedly in his dream to own and operate Gulfway. That’s why she moved back home to run the store full-time. For them, Gulfway has always been a one-stop shop for hunting and fishing, just like it was when they were growing up. Now, they’re excited to keep that tradition alive for the next generation.
Our Mission:
We are passionate about serving customers who share a love for the great outdoors.
We are committed to supporting the communities in and around Vermilion Parish.
We have a vision to grow and expand Gulfway for many years to come.
We dream of raising our daughter close to family, friends, and the traditions that make this place special.
