    Poche's RV Park & Fish-N-Camp

    Nice RV park. Convenient for canoeing in Bayou Teche.

    Poches RV park is nice, well maintained, and has number of amenities. We had a wonderful weekend stay, and the weather was perfect. We canoed in the Shake Your Trail Feather festival on Bayou Teche. The RV park was close the the canoe trailhead. Take the time to explore the city of Breaux Bridge. 

    Go to Poches Market and buy some pork sausage stuffed with jalapeos. Also, be sure to make a reservation and go eat at Little Big Cup in Arnaudville about 15 minutes away. 

    Stayed in campsite#69. Back-in site with concrete parking, picnic table, and fire ring. 15A/30A/50A, water, and sewer hookups. It has a nice grass area with fire pit in the rear of the site next to the lake. Not much shade in the campsite. The site is located on the lake. Neighbors were pretty close. Roads in the park were asphalt or gravel. The free WiFi throughout the park was adequate for checking emails, surfing the web, etc. We camped in a Travel Trailer. Would stay here again. We camped at Poche's RV Park in a Travel Trailer.

    Lakeview Park

    PRETTY, BUT NOISY

    Don't get me wrong, I am not antisocial, but when I go camping I really want the natural quiet of nature. It was pretty busy, with many people gathered and partying. Kids driving crazy on golf carts. Otherwise, the property is pretty. The sites are easily accessible (our camper is approximately 30 ft). The showers were not available d/t covid 19, but were there. Our site 12 was level and had full hookups. Pet friendly. Large trees. Store on site and snack shop near the beach. Very kid friendly.

    L'Acadie Inn & RV Park

    Not much too it, but good location for Cajun Mardi Gras

    We decided last minute to check out Cajun Mardi Gras and L'acadie had a spot open so we took it.  Everyone there was perfectly nice and it was a great location to get downtown Eunice to watch the festivities.  However, there really isn't much to this park.  You are basically parking in a field behind the hotel office.  There is no bathroom/shower facility either - FYI!  However, we did love checking out Cajun Mardi Gras.  It was seriously unlike anything we had ever seen!!

    Palmetto Island State Park Campground

    Can’t think of anything negative

    We spent two nights here and the park is in great condition. All the spaces have electric, water and sewer. The spaces are nice and wide, are on gravel, and very level. Nice privacy between them as well. Nice hiking trails and there is a splash pad and great playground for the kids. There’s also a little lake for fishing. The showers were very nice and clean and there was a laundry facility with a book exchange. Inexpensive laundry $1.75 for each wash and dry. I guess the only negative thing I can say which really isn’t the park‘s fault is the road getting into the park is in pretty poor shape for the last 3-4 miles.

    Intracoastal Parish Park Campground

    Dave and DiDi Go Crabbing

    This was our second visit to this nice campground. Improvements were made after Hurricane Rita, All sites are gravel with plenty of room. Each side includes a picnic table-- with those between the two boat ramps covered--as well as a garbage can. Easy access to water for fishing and crabbing at the park plus convenient location to national refuge and coastline to the south. Bathrooms were adequate, spacious, and clean. Dump site also clean. Walkways and docks along the canal with a fish cleaning station on main covered dock area. New playground equipment and meeting room (rental) but closed due to COVID-19. Agree with previous review about noise. We were further away and didn't notice road or water noise at night. Good TV reception with regular antenna. Also no problems cell phone reception (ATT). We will definitely stay here again. This visit we were in our 25 ft travel trailer,

The area features a subtropical climate with hot, humid summers and mild winters, making cabin camping possible year-round. Most cabins are situated in wooded settings or near bodies of water, with seasonal considerations affecting availability and pricing.

What to do

Fishing opportunities: At Myers Landing, guests can enjoy lakeside fishing in Lake Arthur. "The campground is very nice, the lakeside is beautiful, we loved the little market right in the front by the lake," notes one camper. The small on-site market provides bait and fishing supplies.

Kayaking and canoeing: Palmetto Island State Park Campground offers several water trails for paddling enthusiasts. A reviewer mentioned, "We stayed here this last weekend for the first time and really enjoyed it! There are a couple of kayak/canoe trails that were great!" The park has rental equipment available seasonally.

Casino gaming: For cabin guests who enjoy entertainment, Red Shoes RV Park & Chalets provides convenient access to casino facilities. "This place is one of most favorite camping spots... Then you have the Coushatta casino and all its amenities, so no need to travel far for fun and food for adults and kids," states one visitor.

What campers like

Wildlife viewing: Cabins in the region offer opportunities to observe local wildlife. "If you like Louisiana Wildlife this is the place for you! I saw a couple of lounging alligators, egrets, snapping turtles, deer, and a chipmunk!" reported one camper at Sam Houston Jones State Park, noting that signs warn about alligator presence.

Swimming options: Lakeview Park features a swimming pond with inflatables that appeals to families. "Had such a great and relaxing time! Rented the kayak for an hour multi times. Water is cold and refreshing. The property is remarkably clean and well kept!" shared an enthusiastic visitor.

Clean facilities: Cabin guests frequently mention facility maintenance as important. "The State Park was clean grass was cut, workers always walking around picking up trash," noted one visitor about Sam Houston Jones State Park. Another camper at Palmetto Island State Park stated, "This was one of the best and cleanest state park campgrounds we've ever stayed at. Complete with free laundry!"

What you should know

Water quality concerns: Some cabins may have issues with water quality. At Myers Landing, one camper reported, "However the water smelled very badly like metal and we had to turn it off and use our own tank water since it smelled so yucky. Not sure if that's the case on every camp site."

Booking requirements: Weekend reservations often require minimum stays. "Must reserve sites for 2-day minimums or more on weekends," notes a visitor about state park accommodations. Holiday weekends can require bookings months in advance.

Noise levels: Some cabins are in areas with ambient noise that might affect light sleepers. A Cajun Campground visitor observed, "The only drawback was being able to hear the traffic on hwy 190 and the trains!" Another camper at Lakeview Park mentioned, "Don't get me wrong, I am not antisocial, but when I go camping I really want the natural quiet of nature. It was pretty busy, with many people gathered and partying."

Tips for camping with families

Cultural experiences: The Jennings area offers unique cultural activities for families. "We've not been during the summer, but we loved our kids' Mardi Gras weekend here. Lots of cultural fun and activities for kids and family," shared a Lakeview Park visitor about nearby Cajun celebrations.

Pool facilities: Some cabin locations offer swimming pools for family enjoyment. "Very kid friendly, a large clean pool, mini golf, and lots of space to run and ride bikes!" noted a visitor to Cajun Campground, which also features additional recreational options for children.

Wildlife safety: When staying with children, be aware of local wildlife. "Bold Wild hogs came into my site and disturbed my dogs. Hogs stood their ground, and did not stand down," reported a visitor at Palmetto Island State Park. Other parks may have alligators in water features.

Tips from RVers

Cabin alternatives: Many RVers note that cabin rentals make good alternatives when traveling without an RV. "There's also cabins to rent for those without campers or for friends to come stay," explains a visitor to Red Shoes RV Park & Chalets, highlighting the convenience for groups with mixed accommodation needs.

Laundry facilities: Access to laundry can be important for extended stays in cabin accommodations. "There is a very nice laundry room that is free. That was a great perk. There are 3 washers and 3 dryers. Several of the units seemed brand new," notes one guest about Sam Houston Jones State Park, though they caution the machines can be busy.

Site selection: When booking cabins, location within the park matters. At Lakeview Park, a guest advised, "Our site 12 was level and had full hookups. Pet friendly. Large trees. Store on site and snack shop near the beach. Very kid friendly." Another visitor at Cajun Campground recommended, "We are in site 1, and it's quite level."
