Best RV Parks & Resorts near Elm Grove, LA

We pulled in late and stayed one night.  The owner greeted us and the welcome was genuine and warm. While the site had many long term residence. Our site was good with easy full hook ups, drive through, but required side leveling. The small pond was great to walk around and chat by.  Some noise early in the morning when workers left, but other than that ... hidden gem for a quick one night stay!

Country, peaceful, Lakefront RV spots Short or Long term

We came here for a quick over night stay. Right off interstate by gas stations and food. We were in a pull through spot, which was level, but barely long enough for our truck and 30 ft camper. Full hookups (bring extra long electric cord!), picnic table, showers, cable, dog park, and extra parking area noted. No fires allowed. With Good Sam our spot was 34.00 which was quite reasonable.

Whitetail deer, owls, fish/gar, butterflies, dragonflies, fireflies, and much more! Sites right on the Lake. Two Disc Golf Courses and hiking trails. Nice facilities with all lodging options from primitive tent, yurt, RV hookups, and cabins.

Kayaking this area was BEAUTIFUL and just unforgettable from our trip to this part of the state. You get to camp among the trees and spanish moss and water. There are some choices on just how much you get at your campsite (RV hookups, electric, water) and they had some screened sites that were full. If you make reservations far enough in advance definitely get the screened in areas. The bugs are awful, the gators are a little scary, but that’s the price you pay for the beauty.

There is much to do at this park. Trails, swimming, boating, fishing, small zoo and museum. Very clean. Newly renovated. Full hook ups and cabins are available as well as tent camping. The tent camping area is separate from RV section though.

Kind of an odd location— behind an auction yard. Nice concrete slabs for RVs. Fair gravel roads, 3 very nice log cabins, at least 2 covered RV spaces. BBQ grills and fire pits are brand new. Private pond on site. Because it is relatively new they have a few bugs to work out but I would stay there again.

This camp ground is well kept. There is a nice beach and really nice fishing pears and dock. There is a large open pavilion to rent as well as an enclosed group building. Cabins and duplex housing are also an option. I prefer the pull through full hook up section but there are plenty of tent and RV sites with water and electricity. There are some short trails and an amphitheater is located near the bath house. I try to camp there once a year.

This campground is now a KOA. It appears to have more long term campers living here than anything else. The campgrounds offered are split across a highway. The pool is only on one section. It is required to shower before using the pool but there is no shower or bathroom at the pool. The lodge is reserved for other paying patrons. You have to wear a pink paper bracelet to prove you are allowed access. If you want to use the hot tub you must contact the office and pay for the propane. The park does have nice paved parking pads and a newly paved road. Roads are narrow though. The entry to the park did confuse us a little. It’s a bit of a walk to the pool or office. I guess it worked for just staying the night.

A few miles from Natchitoches, LA and the nicest RV park in the area. Well spaced concrete pad level RV Sites with gated access. Combination pull through sand back in that accommodated our 45 ft. motorhome and Jeep towed. Rich with grassy areas and trees. Each site has a fire pit/BBQ and picnic tables. Next to boat launch that takes you to the Red River. Nice activity center available to all campers. Very organized concrete surrounded hookups next to pads. Playground and activity building with full kitchen open to all campers.

Great trails! This park has both land and water trails. Wonderful place to canoe, kayak, paddle boat and fish. Good space between camp sites and there are full hook up sites. First come choice. Friendly staff!

We called from the road got an awesome spot by the lake. Needed a rest for $125 for the week includes full hook up, showers in the bath house. Laundry coin laundry. Wifi. Cell service is awesome and a store right there on the property. The owners are the nicest people you will ever meet.

The pool was closed the whole time we were there. I could understand a day, but they just kept trying to fix it themselves instead of getting a professional. We stayed here for the pool so, at$55 bucks for grass and gravel and no pool, we were not impressed. The women's toilets were new and clean, but the showers were nasty. The long-term campers were nice, but the transients were super rude, parked in your campground arrogantly, and didn't obey quiet hour rules. One camper opened and shut his truck doors over 20 times early in the morning. He was pacing around like a little kid looking for attention. You are quite a long drive from downtown and in not a good area of town either

On a highway in a very impoverished small town. Road noise constant. Clean. Gravel parking area pull throughs with full hook ups. Mostly filled with residents. Office was closed. No gate, no security. Called number to check in and seemed to ruin older woman's day by calling. "Grass" to walk dogs was solid stickers. Broken fence leading into a Mexican restaurant next door featured many loud drinkers wandering their parking area. Felt unwelcome, not very safe, and won't return. Left at sunrise.

This campground is very basic. It has full hook ups and that is about it. There is a Laundry Room. There are about 20 or so spots, mostly occupied by permanent residents. It looks like folks park their trailers here and go home for the work week, only to return for the weekend. The draw for this place is quiet solitude. There is no - and I mean zero AT&T service here. You occasionally hear boats traveling up or down the river, but it’s very peaceful. Caddo Lake is the place to see here, and since you can only see it via Caddo Lake State Park, or Caddo Lake National Wildlife Refuge, you must really use a boat, kayak, or canoe to get the full experience. It is the moss covered cypress and bayou atmosphere that drew us to this area, and it did not disappoint. There is a restaurant right next door that is right on the river and serves good food. They are only open for dinner and only on Friday thru Sunday. We felt that it was the perfect location to see the area.

Quiet little RV park located in the backyard of a farm. Family owned, well kept and clean. The lots are well spaced and there are no trees. Offers daily, weekly and monthly lots. It looks like their are 19 spots with a couple being pull-through. There is shower/bathroom and laundry area open 24 hours a day. The property is across from train tracks and the train came through around 8 times a day for about 1 minute and it does blow its horn right before reaching the RV Park. I had my air conditioner running and barely heard it. We stayed here with a 41’ fifth wheel and a F-350 dually truck. It’s a tight turn to get in to and out of RV park but it’s totally doable.

Woodpecker Hollow toilet/shower facility needs some deep cleaning 

11 windows in Woodpecker Hollow women’s toilet/shower and only 4 were open. Camp host said rest of windows were painted shut.  Floors were continuously wet and slippery. What a mess! This place needs a fan or two.

An absolutely beautiful setting. This is a quiet, quaint park with the most beautiful views. I hosted a kayak camp out with 23 ladies to go kayaking. There is a kayak rental right next door which is a very short paddle to the camp. There’s a small boat ramp at the park so putting in is easy. There’s 3 trails close to the park. Trails took 1 -2 hours depending on which one you take and how fast you paddle. There’s a shower house with 1 shower, sink and toilet, very clean and plenty of room with a bench. The park is well kept and clean. There is a fire ring at each camp site and full hook ups. There is a HUGE public fire pit that is wonderful to gather with larger groups. The owners Pat and Leslie live on the grounds and are wonderful and available for any questions. This is a rather new park and is hidden gem at Caddo and well worth the stay.

Park located about 10 minutes from Natchitoches, LA. Think park is operated by Red River Waterway Commission and they do a good job. Very spacious with some shady spots and lots of green grass. Roads are easy to navigate and concrete pads. I was able to park my 44 foot motorhome with a towed Jeep without unhooking. Full hookups and great WiFi. Boat launch next door.
