    The 2,700-acre, man-made lake that is the centerpiece for Poverty Point Reservoir State Park offers visitors an outlet for a variety of water sports and a scenic backdrop for waterfowl migration each spring and fall.

    The fish and wildlife species inhabiting or migrating through the reservoir are numerous. Anglers can fish the lake year-round for largemouth bass, black crappie, bluegill and channel catfish. The region falls within the Mississippi Flyway for many winged species. Depending on the season, visitors will see cormorants, ducks, geese and pelicans.

    Overnight guests can choose from two-bedroom waterfront cabins, spacious lodges with loft bedrooms, or RV camping. A water playground in the campground area provides a place for our younger visitors to beat the heat.

    A nature trail winds along an off-shoot of Bayou Macon. Special attention should be given to any Louisiana black bear sightings on or near the reservoir. The eastern edge of the park, along Bayou Macon, contains attractive bear habitat and visitors are cautioned to keep all exterior cabin areas and day-use areas cleared of accessible food products and refuse. Bear-proof containers are provided for waste disposal throughout the park.

    Bastrop, Louisiana

    Chemin-A-Haut State Park, near Bastrop, LA, is a solid spot for camping all year round. This place has a bit of everything, from tent and RV sites to cabins and even glamping options. The park is known for its peaceful, shady campsites and clean facilities. The bathrooms and showers are some of the best you'll find, and there's even coin-operated laundry available.

    If you're bringing a big rig, you'll be happy to know the park is big-rig friendly with full hookups. Just be mindful of the site you choose, as some can be a bit tricky to level. Sites 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 14 are your best bet for a level setup. The inner loop sites are shorter and slope from back to front, while the outer loop sites slope front to back.

If you're into kayaking, you might want to check out Castle Tree, but call ahead to see if the water levels are right for a good view.

    The park also has some nice cabins right on the water, perfect for a more comfortable stay. And if you're into hiking, there are some beautiful trails, though the walking trails might not always be well-maintained.

    Overall, Chemin-A-Haut State Park is a great place to relax, enjoy nature, and maybe even make some new camping buddies. Just keep an eye on the weather and site conditions, and you'll have a fantastic time.

    Chatham, Louisiana

    Located on a peninsula on Caney Lake, Jimmie Davis State Park offers two boat launches and a fishing pier that cater to the outdoors enthusiast looking for a prime freshwater fishing spot. Waterskiing is another way to enjoy the clear waters of the lake, which was created by damming Caney Creek in 1986. Don't forget to look back at the lakeshore to appreciate the beautiful mixed pine and hardwood forest surrounding the lake and the birds and animals that make the forest their home. To ensure that there's never a dull moment, the park also has a playground for the kids after a day on the lake. Cyclists will enjoy the park as a starting point for biking treks through the hills of North Louisiana, and nature lovers are invited to discover the beauty of the wooded land and lakefront. Bring your binoculars to get a closer look at the wide variety of birds that live in or pass through the area. After a day of fishing and exploring the park, stay the night in a cabin...or bring the extended family and sleepover in a lodge. For large groups, a group camp – including four dormitories and a dining hall – is available, with its own playground and fishing pier. RV campers have several scenic sites to choose from, for a closer visit with nature. Opened in the fall of 1996, Jimmie Davis State Park was originally named Caney Creek Lake State Park. The 2003 Louisiana State Legislature approved renaming the park in honor of two-term Governor Jimmie H. Davis, who served from 1944 to 1948 and again from 1960 to 1964.
