Best RV Parks & Resorts near Lafayette, LA

Rustic RV park located about 5 miles from I-10. Three big stocked fishing lakes. Private lakes so no license needed. Big club house with commercial kitchen. Full hookups and concrete pads.

If you are looking for a safe, affordable RV park with level sites, you’ll want to stay at the brand-new Parkside RV Park. The staff is friendly, customer service is great and the park clean!

This RV Park is a new build and opened in 2021. You can tell it was built to overcome the obstacles you find at older RV Parks. The spaces are all level, paved, and long and wide enough to fit your RV and two vehicles. The water, sewer and electrical are all new and work! You can reserve and pay for your site online, do self-check-in and the park emails guest about happenings at the RV Park so you stay informed about current events.

The RV Park has free WIFI, dog waste stations, security camera, streetlights and two washers and dryers for guests to use for free. There are four individual bathroom that can be accessed by a code. Since the landscaping is all new at the RV Park, the trees are not mature enough to provide shade. Once the trees grow, it looks like each RV site will have a tree at the back of the site. You are drop off your garbage in the dumpster on your way driving out of the park or set it out by the road and it will get picked up.

The RV Park was built next to the entrance to the St. Julien Park which holds the Broussard Sports Complex and has a gate for guest to walk into the park. St. Julien Park offers bathrooms, free WIFI, drinking fountains, walking trails, dog waste stations, disc golf, catch and release ponds, security camera and several areas for locals to play sports. It’s a very well-kept park!

Something to consider before arriving. You’ll need a long sewer hose; the sewer hook ups are at the very back of the site. No one mans the office after hours. If a storm rolls through, you only have the 4 bathrooms and laundry room area to seek shelter. The streetlights are on all night for safety, if you like a dark room for sleeping, you’ll want to have blackout shades or wear a sleeping eye mask. I don’t know how you get a picnic table, there were only a few throughout the park at RV sites. This is also not a “party” type RV Park. They ask if you drink outside, to do it discretely.

Large complex with a lot of long term ‘residents’. Well maintained with some pretty interesting signage (see pictures 😂). Lots of room to walk and a pond. Close to attractions in the area

Quiet little place with full hook ups pull in spots Wi-Fi is excellent. They also have a pool but it’s a little too cold to swim right now.

We enjoyed a weekend without RV backed p to the pond.  Cement lots with fire circle of metal.  Be careful though in picking your spots because some are in the way back and have no trees, which could be brutal in a Louisiana summer.  Nice playground for kids, mini-golf, and clean laundry mat.  There is a great cajun meat shop at the entrance to the RV park.  Lots of trees and shade at our location.  Would have given it five stars, but too close to the highway, so lots of road noise.

This is a very nice campground. Full hookups, level gravel sites. Mature pines. Lots of birds. Playground equipment for the kids. Pool. Very nice staff.

We came here to stay after evacuating from hurricane Sally. We stayed 8 days. It’s a nice rv park. The pool is great. The lazy river has a great current, the best I’ve experienced so far, RV campground wise. Due to Covid restrictions, there were limitations and not much going on. Outside of that, I’m sure this park is amazing when there aren’t restrictions in place. There were some full timers there and they were so nice and welcoming. The office staff and owner were very friendly to us, as well. The WiFi was very good! I was very thankful for that. Pros: Pool/Lazy River, WiFi, friendly campers and staff, “gated”, fire pit. Cons: no shade, no tubes for pool (bring your own), no 24/7 accessible bath house.

We recommend and will go back again for sure.

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.

Don’t let a former bad review chase (pun) you off from this campground. It’s clean and roomy with full hookups for $28 a night. The staff a friendly and helpful. It’s quiet, safe and has a new playground. We don’t have little kids and wish it were a dog park but realistic the world doesn’t revolve around us.

We stayed here Friday through Sunday in site 110. Not a perfect site due to no shade. The site was gravel and grass, pretty level. Our camper is 27 ft and it fit nicely, though larger ones would have problems. Be sure to bring extra sewer hose, the sewer is a far reach! The site behind and on the right are very close. (Since we were here for a nearby softball tournament, it was ok.) Site was full hookup for 30 amp only. Amenities include a fishing pond, a swimming pond with inflatables, playground, store, and a dance/concert barn with live music. Also a very clean laundromat and bathhouse. The park management were very sweet and helpful. A little pricey at Friday and Saturday 55 dollars a night, 45 for Sunday through Thursday. Cabins and an apartment are also available to rent.

Nice level sites. Cool fellowship activities and really the nicest people we have met!

We only spent 1 night here but it was a great stopover. Easy access off I-10, level sites, nice staff. We'd stay again if passing through. Only thing we noticed that needs work is the small playground. I thought our kids would tip the whole thing over while swinging!

This was our first trip to Lafayette KOA and just our third time camping in our new-to-us travel trailer. My overall impression is that the park is very well maintained, has attentive staff and many activities. We didn’t care for how the sites were so close together. Luckily we didn’t have neighbors to the right of us. Because if we did, their cables and sewage hose would be right outside our door. We had our dog with us so the gravel wasn’t ideal. The tent sites were not located right next to the bathhouse. It’s not a horrible walk, but it’s a lot closer to the majority of the RV sites. They do have a set of restrooms right across from the tents though. We did a little fishing. The ponds were stocked. The water was clear so we could see them, but they were not dumb. We lost a lot of worms, and we only caught three tiny fish. We don’t have kids, but this would have been a great place to take your family. Activities include Mini golf ($), Kayaks ($), paddle boats ($), two pools, pool table in the game room, playground, and a small dog park. We had some strong winds the first night, and our awning ended up getting damaged. I called the front desk, and they sent out maintenance right away to help. The office has a shop with fishing supplies, groceries, RV supplies, and gifts. It’s conveniently located near a grocery store, gas stations, and fast food places. Billy’s Boudin was a quick walk away.There is noise from I-10 and from the nearby train tracks, but it’s not too bad. We’ll definitely be back, but would like to try a different site/area next time!

My husband works out of town and we rented a 30 amp slot at Chase's RV/Weeks Island Rd RV for 1 month starting on 7/15/21. From the start, we had a problem with not being able to have enough power to run our hot water heater, or AC and lights were constantly dimming and outside breaker was tripping. When we spoke to the owner about the situation, he tried to say there was a problem with our RV, but by his own admission stated that they had had 2 different RVs"burn down" in the park. After a week in a half, we moved to another park and to no surprise, have had no electrical issues what so ever at the new park. Although the owner is nice enough, the manager of the property can be rude and obnoxious. When we spoke to the owner about the electrical issue and notified him that the problems resolved when we moved to another park and that the electrical issue is obviously with his park, he declined to refund any of the rental fees. If you value your safety and property, Absolutely no amenities.  Pool has been dug up, no wifi, no cable, and by managements own admission, the laudry and bath house stay locked because a park resident has bedbugs.  Stay far away from this park.
