TravelerFrench Quarter RV Resort
Bij de receptie waren de mensen erg behulpzaam. Zwembad is aardig, hottub ook fijn. De plekken waren heel netjes. Fijn dat het vlakbij de French Quarters ligt waar je makkelijk lopend erheen kan. Een groot nadeel is de enorme lawaai van verkeer!!! De prijs daardoor vind ik exorbitant !

Royal Palms RV Park
Reserveren van deze plek ging soepel! Heel erg vriendelijk gastheer. Wij mochten onze rv langer laten staan dan uitrij tijd omdat wij geen parkeerplek konden vinden dicht bij onze tocht met de boot! Geweldig geholpen. De camping is klein maar aangenaam om voor een nacht te blijven. Wat geluid van verkeer, maar niet storend voor de nacht. Liever hier staan op het gras dan op een resort met beton platen 😃

GuideFontainebleau State Park Campground
We stayed at site CU037 and had a wonderful time! Our spot felt private and secluded, with plenty of wildlife all around us. We saw squirrels, raccoons, deer, lots of birds, and one surprisingly noisy armadillo! At night, we could hear owls and coyotes, which made the experience even more memorable.
The bathrooms and showers were clean, with plenty of hot water—a welcome comfort while camping!
It was a beautiful place to slow down and enjoy nature. Our only regret is that we couldn’t stay longer. We’d happily come back!
Gail G.GuideFontainebleau State Park Campground
Love the area
It does have high traffic, but quiet in campground. Big campground, with mostly FHU sites. Back in sites and pull thru also. Bath house also has laundry. The park and beach areas are awesome. Second year camping here, cause pretty darn sweet
Denis P.ScoutBuccaneer State Park Campground
The price is with 96$ to high. To much mosquitos.
Todd B.GuideMcLeod Park Campground
Well laid out park on the river.
Park layout is nice with probably 150 sites +/-. Some are close together. Others are well spaced and situated for some privacy. No one on site at night so when it gets loud or rowdy, you're on your own.

LegendFrench Quarter RV Resort
The Ultimate RV Base Camp for the Big Easy
Calling French Quarter RV Resort a 'campground' almost misses the point. This compact, walled RV oasis occupies roughly a city block just off I-10, with 52 flat, paved full-hookup sites and essentially zero traditional camping atmosphere: no woods, no shade and no tents. But that's also its genius: you're staying in your own RV within walking distance of the French Quarter. The grounds remain remarkably clean and secure for such an intensely urban setting, and the courtyard pool and hot tub provide a surprisingly relaxing place to recover alongside a stiff Mai Tai after a long day pounding the pavement in New Orleans. Recent 2026 reviews continue to praise the cleanliness, staff and location, while confirming that shade remains nonexistent.
While my earlier review goes into considerably more detail, I thought I’d revisit this campground with a quick topline of HIGHLIGHTS and LOWLIGHTS along with a fresh batch of photos.
HIGHLIGHTS: (1) Location is the killer attraction here - you can park the RV and walk into the French Quarter rather than attempting to navigate and park a big rig in downtown New Orleans; (2) the walled, gated property and overnight security create a reassuring little 'cocoon' from the surrounding city; (3) sites are generously sized for an urban RV resort (roughly 30' x 60') flat, paved and equipped with full 20 / 30 / 50-amp hookups; (4) the central courtyard, pool and hot tub are genuinely useful amenities rather than decorative resort fluff after a day exploring the city; and (5) clean private showers, laundry and other well-maintained facilities make this exceptionally easy urban camping.
LOWLIGHTS: (1) You're paying handsomely for this location, with current rates running roughly $105–$250 / night and event pricing capable of pushing things substantially higher; (2) elevated I-10 sits immediately alongside the property, so highway noise comes with the address, although the passing by traffic noise becoming less intrusive at night; (3) there is virtually no shade, greenery or traditional campground ambience - so bring your own shelter or shad; and (4) this is RV-only territory, so tent campers need not apply.
Insider’s Tip: I’d still choose one of the less-expensive standard sites rather than automatically paying for a premium site. I-10 is sufficiently close that you're unlikely to achieve true silence anywhere, and the basic sites deliver the same real prize: a secure place to leave the rig while you go enjoy New Orleans. If you're walking into the Quarter, daylight is preferable; use a rideshare coming back late at night.
Guide to Lacombe
RV parks around Lacombe, Louisiana provide diverse camping experiences alongside bayous and within driving distance of New Orleans. The area's subtropical climate brings humid summers with temperatures reaching 90°F and mild winters rarely dropping below 40°F. Camping facilities range from basic sites to resorts with recreational amenities, with most locations situated within 30 miles of Lake Pontchartrain.
What to do
Explore local waterways: Visitors at White's Bayou RV Park can access multiple water bodies. "On the water with access to the Gulf, Pearl River and wildlife refuges," notes Chuck H., making it ideal for fishing enthusiasts.
Visit New Orleans: Many campers use Lacombe RV parks as a base for city trips. "Easy access to New Orleans, about 30 minutes," explains Lenny M. from Pinecrest RV Park, allowing for day trips while maintaining more affordable accommodations.
Attend local events: The region hosts regular celebrations year-round. "We were there for valentines weekend with family. We all enjoyed everything," reports debra V. about Sun Outdoors New Orleans North Shore, which features special holiday activities.
What campers like
Waterfront access: Beachfront camping options provide direct water views. "If you are looking for a place that puts you on the beach/ocean, then look no further. The property is very well maintained, pads are spacious, concrete and level," writes Jen K. about Silver Slipper Beachfront RV Park.
Water recreation facilities: Several parks feature pools and water attractions. "The lazy river and pool are nice as well but extremely crowded as it's about the only entertainment on campus," notes Brandon about Fireside RV Resort, highlighting a popular amenity during hot summer months.
Secluded spots: Some campers appreciate quieter locations away from crowds. "This is one of our favorite parks. Nice RV pads next to the fishing pond. Scenic nature trails and wildlife. This is out in the woods but only a short drive to shopping and dining," says Timothy D. about Abita Springs RV Resort.
What you should know
Security varies by location: Safety considerations differ across parks. "The area doesn't feel safe, but inside the campgrounds does. The campground itself is clean and kept up well. They keep a guard at the gate all the time," reports Chad W. from French Quarter RV Resort.
Seasonal pricing fluctuations: Rates change throughout the year and for special events. "Mardi Gras is considered a holiday! However, if you join at the nearby Casino for eligible play, you will get a free night in return," advises Lee D. about Silver Slipper, showing how to maximize value.
Varied hookup configurations: Some parks have unusual setups requiring additional equipment. "The sewer hookups stick up a foot above the ground which makes it impossible to get your discharge hose to drain without standing out there to help it," warns John from Jude Travel Park, highlighting practical challenges.
Tips for camping with families
Look for kid-friendly amenities: Select parks with facilities designed for children. "We stayed in site 202 and it was ideal as we have a class A and flat tow a Jeep and didn't want to unhook for the one night. The site was a nice level concrete lot. Our kids loved the lazy river," shares Jen O. about Sun Outdoors New Orleans North Shore.
Consider noise levels: Highway proximity affects some campgrounds. "I-10 is across the street and a bit loud during the daytime, but less so at night," mentions Ray & Terri F., providing important context for families seeking quiet environments.
Check accessibility: Not all facilities accommodate mobility devices. "The roads are full of loose rocks where my chair got stuck 2x on the way to the clubhouse. The grass was too wet and muddy to drive on also," reports Beverley D. from Abita Springs RV Resort, noting challenges for wheelchair users.
Tips from RVers
Site selection matters: Choose sites based on specific needs. "Site #54, and luckily site #55 was empty. Some sites are a little too close together while others have plenty of green space," explains Sandy P. from Fireside RV Resort, highlighting the importance of researching specific site layouts.
Monthly stays offer savings: Long-term options provide substantial discounts. "Between $60 nightly to $22 when booking monthly," according to Nancy W., who stayed at Sun Outdoors New Orleans North Shore for a month, demonstrating significant savings over daily rates.
Check big rig compatibility: Not all parks accommodate larger vehicles. "Nice RV parking lot with full hookups. Pads are level and get beautiful sun rises from your camper. Great stop while going to Casino or hanging out in Bay St Louis or any activity on the coast," reports Billy G. about Silver Slipper Beachfront RV Park, a location suitable for various RV sizes.
