TravelerWe stayed at site 124 in “Bottomland” and we loved it. New “deck” with room for a rug, fire pit, and chairs. The deck also has a picnic table with a fire pit just off the edge. There’s a creek that ran behind the spot that kept my husband busy. The only downside is that the water and electricity plug are pretty far from your camper- you may need to pack your extender.
ScoutEvery time we visit this park (which is a lot) we are able to have a new and fun adventure!
When my children were very young. This was one of the first places in the area to have a splash park for my children to run and play while staying cool in the south Louisiana heat.
Move up a few years, Tickfaw has provided myself and children with hours of fun, safe and informative hikes along the well maintained boardwalks through South Louisiana swamps.
As my children have grown we have still been able to explore the park further by utilizing the campgrounds! The tent camping section has defined/ private tent sites with picnic tables, and parking next to each site. The Rv park also boost a fun and family atmosphere, with fishing ponds, bike riding, canoeing, and primitive hiking. All with clean and air conditioned restroom facilities easily accessible to all sites.
TravelerI wanted to give this place a good review but…Site was dirty with cigarette butts and the grill was not cleaned out in what looked like a long time. Fire pit was still smoldering. Bathrooms were out of toilet paper and soap. Told the receptionist at the front gate. It was still not restocked. Bathrooms were dirty and very moldy shower curtains. Looks like it was once a nice place but not anymore. Needs some updating and someone needs to take some pride in their job and at least clean and restock the bathrooms
RangerLand-O-Pines is a nice private RV park near Folsom and Covington. We stayed two nights because my daughter was in a horse competition at a nearby horse farm. The sites are mostly shady. The streets and sites are gravel and can get a little muddy in spots after a rain. The park was clean and quiet, and the staff was friendly. About half the sites are for permanent users.
Stayed in pull-through campsite C69 which was shady and level. It was a gravel site. There was enough parking for my 34 ft TT and truck. Neighbors are nearby by not on top of you. The site included: picnic table on gravel, no fire ring. Utilities: 20/50A electric near the middle. The 20A receptacle looked like it had some minor burn marks. Water next to power pole, good pressure. Sewer near power pole with 4 non screw-on fitting.
AT&T had 2 bars of LTE and Verizon full bars of LTE service. AT&T Speedtest: 30.8 Mbps down, 3.6 Mbps up. Verizon Speedtest: 4.5 Mbps down, 11.8 Mbps up. WiFi available, but did not use. Required a login.
Would stay here again. We camped at Land-O-Pines Family Campground in a Travel Trailer.
TravelerThis park is giant! There are probably over 200 sites for camping in this park with beachfront sites and even primitive drive up sites for tent camping back in the woods. The park has 2 shower areas and 4 bathrooms on site as well as multiple playgrounds for the kiddos and even a water park! It is located directly across the street from the Gulf of Mexico and has its own private beach. I stayed in the primitive camping sites for 2 nights because all other sites were reserved for the weekend and it was great. No electric hookup or water but the sites are privately tucked away in the woods and only cost 15$ per night. If you want, you can stay beachfront for 48$ and I believe the regular sites with hookups and water are around $30 per night. The park itself is very well maintained and has ice and drinks for sale in the front office. The employees are extremely nice and helpful and will even tell you about fun things to do in town while you’re there. Definitely the biggest and one of the nicest campgrounds/state parks I’ve stayed in. Worth the trip!
LegendTraveling through for the night. Just a few minutes from the interstate. Spacious sites. Friendly staff. They are upgrading many things in the park like electric, location of setups, etc. Has fishing and more. This park looks like a blast to come to on holidays for the family. They already have Christmas decorations up, a train ride ready and more! No doubt a great place to bring the family. Will stop by next time through. Hope it's when festivities are going.
ScoutThe biggest drawbacks are the drive up and the ... Flight for life? Helicopter that keeps passing over. The amenities are top notch, the sites are great. The price is a premium, but it's legit. We wanted a presidential site for its private hot tub, but apparently the one available isn't free for our duration. We got one next to it and it shares the excellent Waterfront view. The communal pool and hot tub are great to relax in after our long drive in. Looking forward to exploring the city which is right down the road.
GuideThe spaces are a bit tight, only RV spots have a fire pit. Showers are well kept but the place smells musty. The location can’t be beat and the employees are great. Very safe area and convenient shopping places nearby. Short drive to downtown. Good Wi-Fi, good laundry and dish cleaning area. Would stay again but I wish the small camper area would be more spaced out and have fire pits or grills. Nice little playground and the pool looked good as well.

The Lacombe area sits near the north shore of Lake Pontchartrain, offering campers access to coastal environments with elevations generally around 10-30 feet above sea level. The subtropical climate creates muggy summer conditions and mild winters, with mosquitoes active nearly year-round. Water management is crucial for campers in this low-lying region where rainfall can quickly create saturated ground conditions.
Fishing opportunities: While staying at McLeod Park Campground, visitors can fish along the Jourdan River. "The park is clean and very family friendly. Cell service: Verizon service with 2 bars and AT&T one bar sometimes none. We were able to stream the LSU Tigers beat Arkansas on our Verizon hot spot," noted a visitor who enjoyed the river views from their campsite.
Waterway exploration: Kayak or canoe the waterways that connect throughout the region's campgrounds. "Hidden Oaks has a river that runs right through the campground. A small 'general store' is a real convience for those of us who forget the ketchup!" according to one camper who visited Hidden Oaks Family Campground.
Nature walks: Take advantage of elevated boardwalks through swampy terrain. "Went for a few nights solo camping (with my dog) in late January, so we had the tent area to ourselves until Friday afternoon. Really impressed with the cleanliness of the grounds... Several miles of trails showcasing the beauty of southern Louisiana," reported a camper at Tickfaw State Park.
Wildlife viewing: Look for alligators, turtles, and birds at multiple locations. "There's a dirt trail that goes around the lake but be aware there are some pretty good sized gators lounging about," warns a Tickfaw State Park visitor who used the fishing pier.
Convenience to New Orleans: Many campgrounds provide quick access to the city. "Arriving from Tiki Toms in Tiki Island, TX. We stayed for 2 nights on our way to Alabama. This resort sits approximately 5 miles from downtown New Orleans. It is a great onsite restaurant with a fabulous pool," notes a camper at New Orleans RV Resort & Marina.
Water amenities: Pools, splash pads, and water slides are common features. At Bayou Segnette State Park Campground, "the sites are are large but watch what side your picnic table may be on. Short drive to Barataria Preserve for seeing wildlife."
Special events: Seasonal celebrations draw repeat visitors. "We go every year for Halloween, run down but still fun for kids to trick or treat. Cabins are decent if have friends that need someplace to stay," explains a regular visitor to Adventures RV Resort.
Yurt accommodations: For those interested in yurt camping near Lacombe, Louisiana, several options exist. "Huge park with plenty of places to explore. We saw plenty of wildlife such as turkey, deer, rabbits, turtles, alligators and birds. Plenty of trails for hiking and biking," notes a camper at Bogue Chitto State Park Campground, which offers yurt rentals among their accommodation options.
Cell service varies: Coverage can be spotty throughout the region. A visitor to McLeod Park observed, "Verizon service with 2 bars and AT&T one bar sometimes none. We were able to stream the LSU Tigers beat Arkansas on our Verizon hot spot."
Flooding concerns: Low-lying areas are susceptible to water issues. "We were in the lower area campsites, which were prone to flash flooding. We actually left a day early due to prediction of rain," shared one camper at Tickfaw State Park.
Site conditions: Level spots may be hard to find at some campgrounds. A visitor to Hidden Oaks Family Campground noted, "I almost got stuck twice because the spots aren't on solid ground and the spaces are too close together. They are a mix of sand and dirt."
Insects: Mosquitoes and other bugs are persistent, especially after dark. "The golf coarse was filthy and full of mosquitoes. I'm from south Louisiana so I know about mosquitoes and this was a bit ridiculous in the middle of the day," reported a visitor to Adventures RV Resort.
Playground access: Many parks feature dedicated children's areas. At Land-O-Pines Family Campground, "there is a lot of fun things to do for the whole family, from swimming, water slide to playing bingo and a lot more," according to one happy visitor.
Water activities: Splash pads and swimming areas are popular with children. "The grandkids loved the splash pad/water slide and easy access to the river," noted a camper at Tickfaw State Park.
Halloween festivities: Several campgrounds host special trick-or-treating events. "Great site..we went for Halloween weekend and there were alot of activities and trick or treating for the kids..great campsite great memories," shared a Land-O-Pines visitor.
Yurt family stays: The yurt accommodations near Lacombe, Louisiana provide more comfort than traditional tents. "Full RV hookups. Large shower stalls with locking door. Great walking trails," commented a Tickfaw State Park visitor.
Road conditions: Access roads to some campgrounds may be challenging. When visiting Three Oaks & A Pine RV Park, one camper noted, "About 30 back in gravel slots, the neighborhood is not very scenic but it's a good location right off I-10 and 15 minutes to the French Quarter... It is by a train depot, so there is considerable noise."
Hookup reliability: Power and water quality vary between locations. A visitor to Tickfaw State Park appreciated that there was "No dip in electricity at peak usage. Good water pressure. Free laundry for campers."
Campsite privacy: Some parks offer more separation between sites than others. "Our site was lined with woods and gave us the feeling of seclusion," noted a Tickfaw State Park camper.
Leveling requirements: Some campgrounds have uneven sites. At Land-O-Pines Family Campground, a visitor mentioned, "Stayed in pull-through campsite C69 which was shady and level. It was a gravel site. There was enough parking for my 34 ft TT and truck."
