South Campground — Chicot State Park
Bayou Country
Very clean well maintained camp sites and cabins. Fishing, canoeing and hiking trails are available as well as splash pad for the kids. I’ve been going here all my life and even though a live a couple states away now. It’s my go to place to stay when I return. There is showers available as well. Grocery store 6 miles where you can purchase wood as well.

North Campground — Chicot State Park
Great camping in the heart of La
We stopped at this campground for one night on our way home. Some of the sites are close together, but we called and they put us in a spot that was very spacious. There were almost no other campers there so it helps to go in the middle of the week. The staff was very friendly and they had a great hiking path and playground for our 5 year old. I biked most of the paved roads in the state park and was able to go 13 miles without doubling anywhere. The cabins looked great from the outside and are located right on the lake. There is a long fishing pier and boat rentals. This is definitely one we will return to. Also, it is located very close to a lot of antique shopping which my wife wouldn’t let me pass up on my way home.

All sites are cement and level. Pedestals are close and everything works. NO shade at the campground. There is a beach for the kids. Great speck kayak fishing in the fall. Nice place overall. Didn't visit the bath house, full hookups at the RV sites. Breeze is always blowing. Good AT&T. Didn't try the park WIFI, not sure if its available at this time.

Mosquitoes
The mosquitoes were horrible. We left the doors open to our car to move our stuff to go to sleep and there were about 20 mosquitoes in our car as we were ready to go to bed. It was a nice spot but definitely don’t leave car doors open or bring some bug

Mark D.GuideSouth Campground — Chicot State Park
SUPERB
We were there November 5th and basically had the whole campground to ourselves. (there were probably 6 other campers scattered around the park). Our site was huge and even if there were other campers we would not have been able to see them.
Not the easiest park to get to but well worth it. At dusk the mosquitoes came out but what do you expect staying in a Louisiana bayou?? Had decent cell coverage w/ T-mobile (3 bars). Have some great trails throughout the park (mainly at the north campground)

Neat area but lots of mosquitoes even on March 2, 2024
About three miles on well maintained gravel. Nice area, although fairly remote. Clean. Well maintained. There were 3 others camping when we got there. A couple of folks were shooting their rifles at the gun range for a while. Fishermen came and went at the boat ramp. Quieted down at sunset. Swarms of mosquitoes on March 2, 2024. I wouldn’t plan to cook outside. We found (well) water available at the ranger/mangers station to refill our trailer. Plus it’s free!

We had it to ourselves, so spot on for that
We thought on the way here, we might not be able to get in but had the place to ourselves, which was great, apparently there's another campsite farther on so the parks staff told us, but we stayed here. Only complaint 'man those bugs be bugs', bring bug spray, thermisills, and anything else you can think of to combat them, stayed end of February. Wonderful setting. Had a campfire tonight and got visited by 2 armadillos, fabulous !!

Nice park. Lanes are labeled clearly, so our spot was super easy to find after hrs. Clean and spacious pull-thru. Heated pool. Nice folks run the park. Pretty quiet even though it's right off the I10.

Perfect Disconnected on the Water Getaway
We stayed at spot 38. We we're right on the water with our own dock/deck. Close to the restrooms but not much through traffic. Dumpster was right across next to the bathrooms. Not a lot of street lights throughout the campground made things nice and quiet at night. Spots were asphalt and needed a decent bit of leveling. The water and electricity hookups were on the camp side, which made for an awkward parking job to accommodate for the cord lengths. The site had no Verizon cell service, in order to receive notifications or just make a phone call you have to walk back towards the main road. The hiking trails were very nice with lots of shorts and long options. The canoe trails were also nice with the ability to rent kayaks or canoes. Overall the campground was clean, relativity quiet, right on the water, and is perfect if you are looking to disconnect.

Free & Solid
if you sleep in, the adjacent shooting range makes for a rough morning but honestly not bad at all. well-maintained bathroom and picnic tables
Allison Rae C.GuideSherburne WMA
Great free primitive spot with unique ammentities
I really like this spot. It's got great scenery along the river, nice open spaces, well maintained, and there's a free shooting range including archery, pistol, and rifle areas. Decently maintained bathroom with a toilet. Icame mid December and am the only one camping. My only complaint that might bother some people would be the noise of the shooting range, but it's not that bad or frequent.

Bayou Wilderness RV Resort
Perfect I-10 / I-49 stop
We do not like to get too far off of our route. Bayou Wilderness is 4.5 miles from I-49 just north of I-10. The park is exceptionally well maintained. The pool is nice and there is a playground next to the pool. The Laundry/Bath House is clean and the bathrooms are modern. There are three separate bathrooms with a toilet and a shower. The laundry has 6 washers ($2.00) and 6 working dryers ($2.50). This is an excellent overnight stay with FHU. It is worth it. I I travel south again I would plan this stop on my route.

Our plans changed. Our refund is in a credit to be used at a later date. Bummer. Guess I lost that $45.

$7 Veteran discount
Wooden picnic table

Just a couple homesteaders
Sites 1-12 Have the least pot holes in the roadway.
Site 4 has a large wood swing at pond’s edge
CONs
$8 transaction fee which basically cancelled out the $7 veteran discount
Wristbands that had to be worn at all times. We never encountered any wristband police so we didn’t wear.
Campground road in horrendous condition with non stop pot holes
Only 2 women’s and 2 men’s toilets for the entire park which are in the pool house. Since we didn’t see any other on the campground map we inquired at the welcome center/office/store and they confirmed those are it for the park.
Site#22 not level
Sites tightly slammed together
Our campfire ring was under the next sites camper slide out, so totally unuseable
Some site concrete pads have a foot drop off to the surrounding grass/dirt
Power interruption
Wifi signal interrupted every 10-15 minutes with only 8 RVs in the park.
Most sites no shade
Streetlights throughout park

Great place to stay- no cell service
We stayed here and enjoyed the nature surrounding us. We had no cell service but enjoyed the playground and splash pad while we were there. We also attended the crawfish festival closeby.

Coffee with the gators
We love this park. We had morning coffee with a gator lingering under our feet. Definitely pay extra money for the premium site. There is no cell phone service. There are washers and dryer. However there’s a warning sign about washing white clothes could be damaged due to the dark water used. We highly recommend an attached is our full review of the park. http://travelswithgg.com/lake-fausse-point-state-park/

Palmetto Island State Park Campground
Nice park , but not my favorite
We arrived at this park on a Thursday . It was fine, although the restrooms were extremely far from our site. They were very clean . We also used their nice laundry facilities. On Friday , the crowds started to arrive. We learned many locals frequent this campground. By evening, the park was full . Groups being a bit rowdy and playing music very loud. We are not prudes but I really don’t want to be 8 sites away and hear blasting music. Over all the week days I think would be a little quieter . Sites we large. Ours had a bit of vegetation to separate us from neighboring sites.

Very nice campground
We really enjoyed this small campground. What a great vibe. Sites were a little close together and not much vegetation, but it was fine . Our campsite was on the bayou with its own little private dock. Enjoyed watching the birds and gators .

New management
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.
