About
Municipal
Cotile Lake is a man-made impoundment located in the uplands approximately 15 miles west northwest of Alexandria, Louisiana. The lake is approximately 1,775 acres in size and was completed in October 1965. The Louisiana Wild Life and Fisheries Commission stocked this impoundment with the proper species and number of game fish in 1965-66 shortly after its completion date.
The recreational facilities on Cotile Lake are among the finest in Central Louisiana. There is a large area cleared and zoned for swimming with complete bath house facilities nearby. There is a water skiing area that is cleared and snagged for safety of the skiiers. The picnic and camping areas are modern and complete. There is also space available for campers.

TravelerGreat time
The grounds were clean and relatively kept up. The bathrooms were damaged during the last big storm and the 2 restrooms nearest our sites were closed for repairs. The remaining restrooms were old but they did the job. The staff was very helpful and unimaginably kind. I would recommend this site especially if you are r/v or using a camp trailer where a on-site restroom is not necessary... we will definitely be revisiting this campground.

TravelerOlder and very tight spaces.
Older campground. Very tight spaces. Roads and pads are asphalt. Sites 1-7 have full hook-ups and others have water and electric. There is a dump station. Buildings in great disrepair, but staff friendly and very helpful.
GuideEhhh
Went for Father’s Day weekend. Apparently they just reopened after hurricane Laura which was 10 months ago. It still was not completely cleaned up, and still had yellow caution tape on buildings. Bath houses are ran down, funky, and barely operable. I didn’t feel comfortable letting my kids roam the campground. Our site was kind of on a hill, and camper sat funny. If we go back it won’t be to the B side.
