    Tickfaw State Park Campground

    Primitive trip

    Have visited twice. First visit, my original campsite was flooded and was able to switch to another site. Last trip was good but site 35 is very close to 33. The fire rings are within 30 feet of each other and can hear other campers talk, however the primitive sites were nice. They have about 4-5 trails, a splashpad, nature center and you can rent a canoe. Had alot of fun and is pet friendly.

    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.

    New Orleans RV Resort & Marina

    Nice park, but a little overpriced

    Pontchartrain Landing is nice RV park. We had a great weekday stay in late December and the weather was nice. Its not far from downtown New Orleans. When you first get off the Interstate, the area looks abandoned and a little sketchy, but it is ok. Apple Maps guided me right to the park. There is a restaurant and bar, but we didnt eat there. I enjoyed walking and sitting along the water in the mornings. The occasional noise from airplanes taking off from nearby Lakefront Airport was a small detraction. Playground was not much.   Place is fenced at gated for added security.

    Stayed in waterfront campsite#21, but view was partially blocked by houseboats.  Pretty disappointed for $89/night.  Back-in site with gravel parking and a picnic table. No BBQ pit or fire ring. 15A/30A/50A, water, sewer, and cable TV hookups. Site was pretty level. Awning faced north so we had some shade from the sun. There was a flower bed with palm trees between the sites. Not much shade in the park. The site is located on the water. Neighbor was at least 20 ft. Away. Roads in the park were gravel creating some dust. Both AT&T and Verizon had good signal(3 bars each). AT&T Speedtest= 26.8 Mbps down, x 6.5 Mbps up. Free Wi-Fi is available at the office/restaurant and paid available it the sites. Did not use the Wi-Fi. 

    Overall, not impressed for the price, but would stay here again. We camped at New Orleans RV Resort& Marina in a Travel Trailer.

    New Orleans West KOA

    Tight spaces, good location

    The spaces are a bit tight, only RV spots have a fire pit. Showers are well kept but the place smells musty. The location can’t be beat and the employees are great. Very safe area and convenient shopping places nearby. Short drive to downtown. Good Wi-Fi, good laundry and dish cleaning area. Would stay again but I wish the small camper area would be more spaced out and have fire pits or grills. Nice little playground and the pool looked good as well.

    Indian Creek Campground

    BEAUTIFUL, BUT CROWDED

    We stayed here knowing that it would be full. Well, it was crowded and loud! Kids riding golf carts everywhere. Still we had a nice stay at 30 dollars a night! Ice machine, picnic table, playground, hiking trails, kayaking and fire pits. Our site # 57 needed 2 blocks to level.

    Tickfaw State Park Campground

    True Louisiana atmosphere, fun for every age!

    Every time we visit this park (which is a lot) we are able to have a new and fun adventure!

    When my children were very young. This was one of the first places in the area to have a splash park for my children to run and play while staying cool in the south Louisiana heat.

    Move up a few years, Tickfaw has provided myself and children with hours of fun, safe and informative hikes along the well maintained boardwalks through South Louisiana swamps.

    As my children have grown we have still been able to explore the park further by utilizing the campgrounds! The tent camping section has defined/ private tent sites with picnic tables, and parking next to each site. The Rv park also boost a fun and family atmosphere, with fishing ponds, bike riding, canoeing, and primitive hiking. All with clean and air conditioned restroom facilities easily accessible to all sites.

    Tickfaw State Park Campground

    Great little park

    Tickfaw State Park is a Louisiana State Park located just outside of Springfield, LA.  The park is not very large, but big enough not to constantly run into people.  On this visit, we took our Christmas pictures along the “Cypress Gum Trial” - a boardwalk walk trail located across the street from the campsites and around the playground(s).  There is a nice covered area with picnic tables.  There are 2 camping loops - (1) for tents and (1) for RV’s.  Our site, #37 on the tent loop, we had enough space as well as privacy.  We went the weekend after Thanksgiving and the park was not overcrowded and the weather was perfect.  I did find the boardwalk trail was VERY slippery covered in wet leaves.

    Fontainebleau State Park Campground

    Great stop for NOLA sightseeing

    This state park is really pretty, full of lush Spanish moss trees, hiking trails, and historic markers.(although finding out this was a plantation for 150 slaves was unpleasant).

    It’s only 45 mins to New Orleans so it’s a great place to stop, drop, and sightsee for the day.

    It had full hook ups available. Free WiFi even. The spots are level and concrete... and nicely spaced. There are picnic tables and grills available for use too.

    Careful - when it rains, it floods.

    Fontainebleau State Park Campground

    Excellent state park near Mandeville, LA.

    Traveled in 44 foot motorhome and Jeep toad, this site, first one in new section did not require me to unhook. Although my site only had water and 50 A, there are other sites that are back in with full hook ups and cement pads. Picnic table and fire pits are available. I also saw a few deer roaming around.


Guide to Norco

Cabin camping accommodations near Norco, Louisiana provide varied options for travelers seeking shelter beyond traditional tent sites. Properties range from rustic to upgraded units with multiple sleeping areas. Most cabin facilities are accessible year-round, with increased demand requiring advance booking during peak seasons, especially summer months when temperatures reach the high 80s.

What to do

Bicycle trails along the river levees: Fontainebleau State Park Campground offers convenient access to paved bike paths. "Great paved bike trail that you can get to from the campground. We also took the trace to town and rode along the lake," notes Gregg G., highlighting the connectivity between the park and surrounding areas.

Fishing opportunities with dedicated facilities: Indian Creek Campground provides direct water access from many sites. "We are at site 39 which has 2 access areas for kayaks, canoes, etc. There is a private beach for campers. Also a public boat launch and beach," mentions Cat R. The property features multiple spots suitable for anglers of all skill levels.

Community service options near New Orleans: New Orleans West KOA serves as a base for volunteer work. "I stayed there while I was doing some community service in New Orleans, and it was very convenient. Meeting people out there and hearing some of their stories was really eye opening for me," explains Sam M. Community service opportunities remain available years after hurricane recovery efforts began.

What campers like

Reliable security measures: New Orleans RV Resort & Marina maintains controlled entry points. "It's fenced at gated for added security," states David B., addressing common safety concerns for travelers with valuable equipment. Lakeside RV Park also earns praise for its protected environment with staff enforcement of safety rules.

Swimming facilities for hot weather relief: Multiple properties maintain well-maintained pools for campers. "Beautiful pool, lazy river, and pond," reports Sandy P. about Fireside RV Resort. Tickfaw State Park Campground supplements water recreation with a splash pad during summer months when humidity levels peak.

Laundry availability for extended stays: Tickfaw State Park Campground provides complimentary laundry facilities. "FREE laundry, elevation 6 ft., dump station, electric, water, showers, flush toilets," states Annell N., listing the practical amenities important for longer visits. Lakeside RV Park also maintains on-site laundry machines described by one reviewer as "very clean and machines seemed new."

What you should know

Access road conditions vary significantly: Several campgrounds have challenging approach routes. At New Orleans RV Resort & Marina, "The road to get here is rough though, it's through an industrial park and looks very concerning, but then you come and find this!" reports Alana F. Roads to Tickfaw State Park Campground require specific routing: "As we were driving into the Springfield, LA area from the east, our GPS wanted to take us a different route than the website directions that follow the signage to the state park. This would have had us end up on dirt roads, so definitely follow the website directions."

Wildlife encounters are common: Native fauna appears regularly in these natural settings. "We love this campground cause has lots of wildlife," mentions Danny about Fontainebleau State Park. At Tickfaw, visitors should prepare for reptile sightings as one camper notes, "Had a couple of snakes show up creeping under our camper. Nice trails where we saw a couple of alligators."

Site drainage problems after rain: Water accumulation affects many properties following storms. One camper at Tickfaw reports, "It had poured a few days before we went and had to switch sites three times before getting one that was even remotely dry." Similar conditions occur at other locations throughout the region due to low elevation.

Tips for camping with families

Look for covered playgrounds during hot months: Lakeside RV Park offers heat-protected play areas. "We loved the playground that was covered which allowed us to play with our kids in the heat of the day and even with rain," shares Casey L. This feature proves valuable during Louisiana's intense summer sun or frequent afternoon thunderstorms.

Consider holiday-themed camping events: Hidden Oaks Family Campground runs special seasonal activities. "This park looks like a blast to come to on holidays for the family. They already have Christmas decorations up, a train ride ready and more!" Robert M. observed. The campground schedules themed weekends throughout the year with decorations, activities, and family-oriented programming.

Choose sites away from noise sources: Sound considerations matter for families with children. At New Orleans West KOA, "it's noisy. Traffic, trains, airplanes and construction noise, you've got it all here. Bring earplugs if your tent camping," advises Jim H. Similar considerations apply at other properties near transportation corridors.

Tips from RVers

Back-in site challenges: Fontainebleau State Park Campground requires careful maneuvering. "Be careful booking a pull thru site if your unit is over 25', they're horseshoe shaped. We could not fit on a pull thru site," warns Martha S. The drainage infrastructure creates additional difficulty: "There was a drainage ditch across from our site that made backing in difficult...We do not recommend this site for any pull trailers over 35'."

Leverage senior discounts: Significant savings exist for qualified travelers. "LA State Parks give a 50% discount for seniors 62+ and you don't have to be a state resident. You cannot beat $10 a night for this park," shares one reviewer about Tickfaw State Park. These discounts apply year-round and reduce costs substantially compared to private campgrounds.

Site width considerations: Spacing between units varies considerably by property. At Lakeside RV Park, "the width is rather narrow so your neighbor's hookups are in your grass area," notes Brittany V. Site dimensions matter more for larger units with slideouts or outdoor living areas.
