    Fanz Mobile Home & RV Park

    Good Trailer/RV park

    Mostly long term residents in residential mobile homes, motor homes, fifth wheels, and travel trailers. Some are in need of repairs and power washing. Not an RV resort. That’s the bad. Now the good. Location, location, location; 30 minutes from New Orleans, $600 a month or $175 a week (as of 11/2024), electricity and water included in price, FHU.

    Sun Outdoors New Orleans North Shore

    Lots of amenities but very busy on weekends.

    This park typifies “RV Resort” with multiple swimming pools(with swim up bars), café, lazy river, pool cabanas, putt putt golf, pickelball/basketball courts, a fitness center, game room, club house, amphitheater(with live entertainment), playground, off-leash dog park, gift shop, water craft rental, golf cart rental, and a water-based obstacle course(think Ninja Warrior type course). Be aware, some of these amenities have costs associated with them. For example, a cabana by the pool costs $85/day and water attractions are $25/day! We stayed the month of March and the park was about half full during the week with seasonal campers but filled to capacity over the weekends. 

    All sites are 30/50 amp, full hook-up, with wifi and cable. There are pull-thru and back-in sites. Sites, roads, and patios are paved and level and come with a picnic table and fire pit. There are two and three-rig “buddy sites” which are great for camping with friends. Roads are wide and sites are angled for easy in and out. Each site has a picnic table and fire pit. There are two site types - “standard” and“premium” with the difference being the length of the patio and a $10/night higher price tag. Weekly, monthly, and seasonal rates are available and heavily discounted and there are discounts for Good Sam, senior citizen, and military. Our monthly rate reduced the nightly cost from $60 to $22. 

    Reunion Lake has very easy and quick access to I-12 between Baton Rouge and Covington. New Orleans is about an hour’s drive away but the smaller towns of Ponchatoula and Hammond are ten minutes away. There is a Sonic and Exxon just outside the gate with walking distance and a grocery store is about three miles away. 

    Although this is a nice park with lots of amenities this was not really a good fit for us and is crazy with kids on the weekends. We were a little miffed that we were assigned a campsite that management knew did not have working cable. As I was fiddling with the cable(for a couple of hours) other campers came by to tell us that cable had not worked in that site for a long time and management knew that. We were glad the manager agreed to move(and upgrade us to a premium site) but it two days after we checked in and were all set up. Our fire pit(and many others in the park) had trash in it. We never saw anyone clean out fire pits the entire month we were there. The weekend campers near us turned out to be pretty obnoxious with loud karaoke and radios playing all day even when they were not outside. On their behalf, they did turn the music down by quiet hours but it was so loud during the day that we didn’t want to sit outside. There were pieces of trash scattered throughout the park that never got picked up even as we watched staff drive by them every day. Small children were left unsupervised in the lazy river and did not abide by the parks rule to remain in tubes. Children were unsupervised on the basketball/pickleball courts and used the golf putter to hit rocks in the horseshoe pits. One bathhouse we went in was in need of some serious cleaning. 

    This park has a lot of great amenities if that is what you are looking for. It fills up with weekend campers with lots of kids and barking dogs on weekends so there is not much peace and quiet. While it was a decent place to stay during the week, it got pretty crazy on the weekends.

    Land-O-Pines Family Campground

    Pleasant campground

    Land-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.

    Lakeside RV Park

    Lakeside RV

    We have stayed here almost two weeks while downsizing to a smaller home. This place is very well maintained, and the pool and playground areas are in excellent condition. We did not use the showers/ bathrooms but the laundry area was in clean and machines seemed new. The grounds were well manicured, there is a large pond/small lake with a walking path around half of it. There are a few pull through site but the back-Ins have the better views. They have 30 & 50 amp, water and sewer connections. Fairly level and long concrete pads. They are strict about the 5mph speed limit and thankfully so.

    Great for RV park. A little pricey.

    The park is very nice with numerous amenities. Kids really enjoyed the lazy river, miniature golf, and beach volleyball. Not much shade in the campsites and they are pretty close together. Food was inexpensive. I enjoyed walking and sitting along the lake in the mornings. The noise from the interstate was a small detraction. Bathrooms could have used a little more attention. Unfortunately, Hurricane Ida destroyed the floating obstacle course which was the attraction my son was most eager to try. The pools were a little cool during the day for my blood since the overnight lows were in the upper 50s. Didn't seem to bother the kids. 

    Stayed in campsite 82 which had a nice grass area on the passenger(door/awning) side of our RV. Concrete parking with patio area, picnic table and fire ring. 15A/30A/50A, water, sewer, and cable TV hookups. The free WiFi throughout the park was adequate for checking emails, surfing the web, etc.(1.5 Mbps down, 0.5 Mbps up). Full signal strength from AT&T(tower nearby). There is an Exxon gas station and Sonic just outside the entrance. This is a place I will take the kids 1-2 per year since its just over an hour from our house and we had a lot of fun. We camped at Reunion Lake RV Resort in a Travel Trailer.

    French Quarter RV Resort

    Quaint & Accessible in the Big Easy

    Despite being just a stone’s throw from the historic famed district that you’ve come here to revel in and perhaps catch some beads here in NoLa, French Quarter RV Resort (FQRV) is a small slice of respite in an otherwise busy, traffic-jammed section of the Crescent City. Easily spotted from atop Highway 10, which you can access from Exit 235A as you enter the city, you’ll be able to depart 3-lane highway chaos and shoulder-to-shoulder dwellings and enter a fortified encased stone wall fortress complete with a key-coded security entrance that provides both increased privacy as well as a solid measure of 24/ 7 security (complete with a staffed security guard from 8pm until 7am). 

    While occupying an entire space that is more or less equivalent to a small city block or the inside of a football field, what I enjoyed most about FQRV is the very welcoming and accommodating staff that will greet you here as well as the handful of smart amenities that this RV haven provides. After being let into the property, you’ll park immediately to the left as you enter, where there’s a handful of visitor spots, otherwise, feel free to park in one of the few empty spots or alongside the bricked sugar mill main building that lies right in front of you. 

    Once inside, you’ll check-in, find yourself and either pull-through or back-in to one of the 52 well-paved flat sites offering up a minimum of 30’ wide X 60’ long slots offering up the standard RV hook-ups of 20 / 30 / 50 amp electric, water and sewage. Additional amenities include: spartan new clubhouse (conveniently and centrally located just behind the main office) fitness and laundry rooms, 72 channels of cable TV, 4 private restroom facilities immaculately clean and complete with hot / cold showers, business office with fax / copier / WiFi / printer, ATM, community gazebo with wet bar and ice machine. Perhaps the best amenity here is the very inviting community pool that also features a jacuzzi and while not the largest of watering holes, seems somehow perfect for the size of this place. Don’t have an RV but want to spend the night here at FQRV anyway? Well, not a problem as there is a single on-site condo that offers up a master full bedroom w/ king size bed, full-kitchen, private bathroom w/ shower and tub, pull-out queen sofa bed, living room, cable-TV, separate WiFi and individual washer& dryer. 

    Insider’s tips? Here’s a handful: (1) To my tent pitching bredren, FQRV is offered up exclusively for the RV driving and 5th Wheel toting crowd, so you’ll have to look elsewhere if you’d to camp up here in the Big Easy; (2) If for any reason you arrive to FQRV without a reservation and there is ‘no room at the inn,’ there are a few very large-sized open parking lots just due east of this RV resort that at least you’ll be able to park overnight, in case you arrive late or don’t have time to find another spot to park your mobile camping abode; (3) At $120 per night ($700 per week or $2,400 per month), FQRV certainly isn’t a cheap option, but when you consider all of the very great amenities this place offers in addition to the extremely secure spot you’ll be parking your luxury cruiser at as well as, perhaps most importantly, the very easy and quick access this location provides to the French Quarter, which by my walking calculations will have you munching on a shrimp po’ boy while washing it all down with a nice Sazerac, which would be a careful concoction involving Cognac, Absinthe and whiskey (and yes, that ‘e’ in whiskey means American or Irish); (4) IMHO the best sites are actually the standard sites that are noted as ‘budget friendly’ are located closest to Interstate 10, which seems like an odd recommendation, but given that this busy highway is a good 200 feat above you, there’s really no escaping the noise it imparts, but at least you won’t see it or have to pay more (note: it’ll run you an extra $35 per night for ‘premium sites’ located closer to the main building, although you will also get a really nice screened gazebo in front of your slot as well as a‘longer runway’ in case you come packing a stretch limo RV); (5) There is no way to reserve a spot in advance of arriving here to FQRV, which is a bit frustrating at first, but when you realize that nearly every site is just the same as the one next to it, you’ll find yourself getting over this slight inconvenience real quick; (6) While there are no fire rings here, FQRV does allow you light up your own BBQ; (7) While the standard per nightly rates apply to average, non-event dates, you’ll realize pretty quickly here in the Big Easy that there’s an event just about every week, and this is more expansive than just Mardi Gras, generally the 3rd week of February, but let’s be honest, the revelry usually begins the 2 weeks preceding the carnival festivities … so you’ll want to keep in mind French Quarter Festival and Jazz Festival as well as some of the more popular football events will run you extra$. 

    Happy Camping!

    Bay Hide Away RV Park And Campground

    Boutique B&B experience in a small RV park

    With less than 50 spaces, this beautiful little park, just 4 miles from beautiful white sand beaches, is tucked away from the roads and surrounded by a wonderful mixed forest of hardwood and pines. Walking trails are meticulously maintained and provide a wide variety of walking choices throughout this park. There is a pond surrounded by the trails filled with lily pads that was starting to bloom as we left a week ago. There is even a“contemplation bench” on the edge of the pond perfect for sitting and just taking in the beauty of the surroundings. 

    The RV spaces are of different sizes to accommodate different sized rigs but all are well spaced, extremely level, and very well maintained. Each space has their own fire ring and picnic table. All of the full hookup utilities are in an excellent state of repair and maintenance. Roads are well maintained and ruts or pot holes are quickly filled with gravel and graded when they appear. 

    Aesthetics are important to this park. From the moment you drive in, you are greeted by the very attractive office facility which has a small store of RV essentials and a good selection of shirts and hats sporting the parks’ logo. 

    Amenities: Where to start- as I said with regards to the facilities, all of the amenities are meticulously maintained. The park has well priced onsite propane refills. You simply drop off your tank and it is returned to you at your site filled promptly. The laundry and bath facilities are spotless and a pleasure to use. The clubhouse with both indoor and outdoor facilities is amazing! The covered outdoor seating area has a great welcoming fireplace and wonderful ambiance that just feels like home to all who enter. The pool is very nice with wonderful deck seating, lots of shade umbrellas and very nicely landscaped. The enclosed dog park is a great place to give your pups their off-leash time as well. It’s well grassed and maintained and provides a safe and secure place to spend time with your dog(s) any time of day. The WiFi is adequate and is constantly being evaluated for improvements. Just this last year, fiber optic internet was brought into the park and the owners plan to upgrade the service even more this next year. I forgot to mention, you can have your mail forwarded here and they deliver it to your site daily! We just can’t say enough about our experience here. 

    Experience: Bay Hide Away has the look and feel of a boutique B&B only for RVs. Randy and Lea, the park owners and seasoned RVrs, go above and beyond to make a stay there a true experience. A wide range of activities for nearly all interests are provided from game nights, periodic“steak dinners”, pot lucks, craft sessions, weekly Happy Hours, holiday parties and dinners, and frequent tours of the local area for nearly every taste and interest. 

    Signature experiences such as“We meet to eat” at select local restaurants, weekly men’s breakfasts and women’s lunches provide a great way to get to know your neighbors. It’s a rare night that you don’t see several folks gathered around fire pits enjoying this place and sharing with others. Randy and Lea go above and beyond to help guests with any maintenance activities that may be required as well. Randy and Lea are seen daily in their golf cart in the late afternoon and evenings making the rounds to nearly every site sharing news and laughter with the guests that they all know by name. It just doesn’t get any more personal than this. Randy and Lea have made our stay here the standard to which our stay at other RV parks will be held. 

    Afterthought: COVID-19 was a sobering experience to all of us. Randy and Lea acted quickly and responsibly to shut down activities, manage access to the shower/laundry facilities and to set a standard for social distancing within the park. All the while still checking up on their guests on a daily basis. They quickly managed reservation changes to accommodate“sheltering in place” for those that needed that support. Thank you again Randy and Lea for this most wonderful experience.

    Fontainebleau State Park Campground

    Lovely state park

    We stayed here a little over two weeks in mid-February 2019. We really enjoyed this park. It does get very busy on the weekend, but the area we were in was still quiet and peaceful. We were in an area that is deemed long-term and some people around us were staying several months. There is only water and electricity hookups, but there are two dump stations throughout the park. We used our tote to dump grey water while there. We were on spot #138 and were close to the dump and the camp host. Very convenient for using the tote.  This is a bit older park, but we liked it. There are a few walking trails and you can walk along the road as well. There is a long bike trail that takes you into town, but we didn’t do that. There is a cute little beach and pier at Lake Pontchartrain. Would have loved to have a beach day, but the weather did not cooperate. We walked around the park most days and enjoyed the birds and the wonderful trees with Spanish moss. As with most things in Louisiana, the park is low-lying so with rain there are puddles and mud. The campground did not get bad even though it rained several times while we were there. Internet access was good. Strong signal with AT&T and Verizon. The park is close to Mandeville and Covington if you need any essentials. Access to New Orleans is about an hour. We went twice while there. This was our second time staying here and we enjoyed it more this time because we had extra time to explore the park. We saw numerous deer and several wild boars which was fun. We were there during the off-season, so rates were $20/night on the weeknights and $28/night on weekends. We will definitely be back when in the area again.

    Buccaneer State Park Campground

    Nice 3 Day Stay

    Enjoyed spending 3 nights in this large, family oriented state park campground. Camped in a camper van, but most sites appear to be big rig friendly. About a half-dozen freight trains pass close by the campground; noisy, especially where we camped in the Treaure Cove loop. There is also some vehicle noise on a nearby road as well. Didn't bother us, though. Stayed in site 106. Nicely wooded with some, but not much, privacy. Probably not a good spot if charging with solar panels. Restroom/shower houses appear to be we maintained. Sites have water, electric & sewer hookups. Sites are also suitable for tent camping. Can't say anything about the staff since I did not interact with them much. Long walk to the edge of the gulf; not much of a beach near the campground entrance, but nice beaches, with places to park, a short drive east & west of the park. Good AT&T & T-mobile data service. No Wifi.
