    Poche's RV Park & Fish-N-Camp

    Pothole Hell

    PROS

    $7 Veteran discount 

    Wooden picnic table 

    No road noise. 

    It only 5 miles from Interstate 10 

    TMOBILE 2 bars 

    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

    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.

    Improvement road

    This are has been hit by multiple hurricanes, flooding and fires. The rebuilding process is taking time but it is on it's way. Large viewing ponds of alligators, turtles and birds are surrounded by walking and biking trails for all different levels of activity. The sites are only full rv hookup because thats where the money is. Hopefully primative tent sites will open in the next year or two. Laundry, bathhouse and wifi are available. Ice, camping needs are NOT available for purchase but only an 8 minute drive away. Slight constant hum of traffic can be heard otherwise very quiet camp.

    Quit clean camp ground

    My site was across the street from one of the 5 large ponds to fish in. 21 was a shaded spot and only 5 spots from playground, splash pad,pool and store.Great people to work with. Golf carts to rent with lots of room to ride around. Only improvement could be on bathroom and showers no a/c or doors ,only curtains but clean just bugs and heat down falls.

    Family Fun

    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.

    Palmettos everywhere!

    Basic state park camping Bonus is onsite laundry 50/30/20 amp service (you have to flip all the breakers for 20 amp service - strange). A couple good hardened trails. Also a canoe/kayak ‘trail’. Four remote tent camp sites that are far enough from camp sites to enjoy. Sites are on lake lafluer.

    Hidden Oasis!

    We found this wonderful park trying to make a reservation somewhere else…. Many twists and turns to arrive …We were amazed how well kept and inviting the park was, with hot showers, water and electricity for $12. Our Hosts welcomed us and shared some time telling stories of the people they’ve met at this hidden oasis. We felt very welcome!

    Pretty nice

    Nice park and water around. Husband liked it for fishing and we liked the big park. I bet is even nicer in summer time with all the water around! -1 star since the bathroom has no door it was way to cold to use

    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.

    Beyond Thunderdome

    After the excessive affluence of southern California, this bare-bones RV park felt a little frightening. It is adjacent to a gas station and there's no vegetation, but there are some old mattresses and the like. However, the gas station is convenient, there is a nice little store with personal use restrooms, and a there's a well-kept coin laundry. This is not the kind of RV park where merry couples are enjoying their retirement. Instead, it is a place where hard-working people are doing their best to get by. Despite everyone being actually quite friendly, I would have felt a little more relaxed if I had a large dog with me. Or a very smart monkey.

    Favorite local campground

    This was the first campground we visited after purchasing our camper and it immediately became our favorite place to go. Extra clean, extra relaxing and excellent location of the rv campsites right on the water. Definitely a must visit especially if you’re local.

    Nice lake side spot, market, water smells bad

    The campground is very nice, the lakeside is beautiful, we loved the little market right in the front by the lake and the lady working there is very nice. 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.

    The site was trashy.

    Trashy stuff all over, a garbage can that looks like it's been there a year never emptied, molding. had to move trash to park the camper. There are nicer sites but the back end of them are not up kept seemingly at all.
