Most camping areas in this region are developed private campgrounds rather than dispersed or primitive sites, catering primarily to RV travelers and those seeking cabin accommodations.

The climate in this part of Louisiana creates distinct seasonal considerations for campers. Humidity and insects can be prevalent during summer months, with many campgrounds offering swimming pools for relief from the heat. "This place is for people who like fishing. They have 5 fishing lakes here and every spot is on the lake," notes one camper about Poche's RV Park. Facilities generally remain open year-round, with winter offering milder conditions for outdoor activities. Most campgrounds require reservations, especially during weekends and summer months. Roads to campgrounds are typically paved or improved gravel, making them accessible for large rigs and travel trailers. Cellular coverage is generally good throughout the area, and most sites offer WiFi connectivity.

Fishing emerges as a primary attraction at many Breaux Bridge area campgrounds, particularly at Poche's where several ponds are stocked for catch-and-release fishing without requiring a license. Campers frequently mention water-based activities and swimming pools as highlights, with Camp Margaritaville featuring multiple pools including an adults-only pool with swim-up bar. Several reviews indicate that weekends tend to be busier and livelier than weekdays. Family amenities are prevalent, with playgrounds, splash pads, and scheduled activities for children mentioned in feedback. Despite being developed campgrounds, many sites maintain a connection to natural surroundings with lakefront positioning. Site spacing varies by property, with some reviews noting tight quarters at certain campgrounds while others offer more privacy.

    Farr Park RV Camground

    Great location

    Stayed Thu-Sun on an LSU football game weekend. Didn’t see anyone at the office- but spaces are well marked for finding the reserved spot. We were in B6- so no real shade- in the late afternoon the only decent shade is on row E. We had good cell signal and were able to stream.

    When we arrived there were very few campers- but the park got a lot more visitors by late Friday. It was still pretty quiet throughout the stay. Many of the “campers” were large class A or Fifth wheels, but there were a few smaller units like ours (17 ft. TT). The spaces are grass which was obviously recently mowed and the driveway is white gravel/rock. We used the back trail to get to the levee to ride our e bikes and went on about a 30 mile ride south past L’Auberge, and then we went on another 10 mile ride north toward the capital. The bike paths are in good condition and there are a good number of walkers/runners/bicyclists/and scooters using the paths. I checked out the bath house and it was clean and well maintained. There were 4 (ladies) showers and 3 stalls. There are multiple spaces for campers to dump, although we needed to use the front spots due to height. We decided to get an early start on Sunday morning and were at the dump station before 8- only one other unit arrived when we were finishing up- there wasn’t a line to wait in for us. We will definitely return to Farr for another game weekend. We really enjoyed our stay.

    Overnight stay

    Traveling between TX back to GA was the perfect place to stay overnight and relax before traveling home the next day!

    Farr Park RV Camground

    Safe and Clean

    Needed a placed to stay in Baton Rouge for a weekend and didn’t want to pay $300 for a hotel so I decided to car camp.

    Plenty of spaces open in April, was a perk to be able to see the animals too.

    Quiet area, well kept. I only paid $10 per night since I didnt use any hookups.

    Would definitely stay again.

    Parkside RV Park

    Very nice campground

    Campground is not very old, new construction. Just off the main highway south of Lafayette. Great spot if going the to Tabasco Factory. Bathrooms were clean with plenty of hooks to Hang stuff. My site was level and backed up to a farm Field; felt peaceful no road noises. They even called me the night before to see when I was arriving, thoughtful. Wanted to be sure I had all the information and codes if I arrived after hours.

    Abbeville RV Park

    Great little RV park for visiting Abbeville

    This park is nestled in Abbeville, Louisiana. It is just down the road from Shucks oyster bar and a Catholic Church. It’s pretty quiet. There are a few walking trails, and not much else in the park.

    Maxie's Campground

    Basic and nice

    Stayed here with the Passport America discount and paid $23 for a 30 amp FHU site, so roughly double that for the full price. 50 amp is a bit more. Sites are all back in, and on the freeway, so it’s very loud. The website directs you to book your site online, but when we tried to do that, every single site showed as being available, which didn’t seem right to me, so we decided to just drive to the park first. Office was closed when we arrived (owners were at church), so we drove through the park, found an open site, found that site on their website, paid, and pulled in and set up. Owners pulled up to greet us and welcome us when they returned from church so I guess how we did it was fine.

     Park is very basic, but nice. Free hot showers, nice laundry room ($4 for wash, $1.50 for dry- expensive but the machines are bigger than normal). There’s also a coke vending machine. Dumpster here but no recycling. Park offers free wifi but my Kaspersky internet security didn’t like something about it (doesn’t usually alert me when I use public wifi), so I just used my cell phone hotspot. Good cell service with ATT and Verizon.

    South Campground — Chicot State Park

    South landing

    Camped here frequently as a child. Now enjoying it as an adult. Large state park and always have a site available, even with short notice. Lots of things to do. Great park.

    Camp Margaritaville RV Resort Breaux Bridge

    Absolutely perfect

    Okay, if you’re not into a bunch of fellow campers with children, I get that but how can you hate 3 pools with swim up bars, a giant hot tub and a well manicured park? Park really opens April 1 but we needed a taste of summer and we found it here
