Gillis, Louisiana

Gillis, Louisiana

Gillis is an unincorporated community in northern Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana, United States. Gillis, adjacent to two other unincorporated areas (Moss Bluff and Topsy), is the northernmost settlement in the Greater Lake Charles area and the last stop where one can buy beer (no liquor) before entering into completely dry Beauregard Parish.

Gillis falls under the school district of Iowa, though most parents send their children to schools much closer to home. Students who live in the Gillis community may attend Gillis Elementary on Topsy Road and Moss Bluff Middle School and Sam Houston High School in Moss Bluff.
