Several RV parks in the Leesville area, near Pitkin, Louisiana, provide options for travelers. Shady Lake RV Park features big rig-friendly sites with 50-amp electric hookups, full sewer connections, and drinking water. Arlington RV Park offers concrete pads with similar hookup options, including trash service and toilet facilities, though fires are not permitted. Pecan Acres RV Park provides level sites with full hookup capabilities including water, electric, and sewer connections along with shower facilities. Red Shoes RV Park & Chalets in Kinder offers concrete level sites with full hookups and amenities like a pool and casino shuttle. "Level concrete pads with patio and picnic table. Full hookups with cable TV. Lodge and pool. Casino shuttle," notes one camper.

Most RV parks in this region accommodate year-round stays, with several locations serving long-term residents working at nearby Fort Polk military base. Hidden Treasure RV Resort in Boyce features 24 sites with water and electric hookups plus amenities like showers, toilets, and picnic tables. Dump stations are available at select parks, with sanitary dump facilities confirmed at Shady Lake, Pecan Acres, and Red Shoes. Pet policies vary, with most parks allowing pets, though Arlington RV Park prohibits them. According to one visitor, "Some RV's had dug in their sewer hoses for a more permanent living arrangement," indicating many parks cater to extended stays rather than short-term camping. When approaching from major highways, most parks provide reasonable access for larger rigs, though leveling may be necessary at some locations.

    South Toledo Bend State Park Campground

    ALMOST PERFECT

    This was my first time at this beautiful state park. I will definitely come back! 3 days was not long enough to do everything! Our camper site was #46. It had a very large well kept wooden deck with a picnic table. The camper pad was long and concrete. It was slightly uneven, we used 3 blocks to level it off..There was also a large sand pad if you preferred a tent. A firepit was also there. Many of the other sites also had decks, with the same things available. It had water and electricity, a dump station, and very clean shower/restrooms . Also available were primitive camping sites with amazing views. Oh, did I mention that our site had a very short walk to a dock overlooking the beautiful lake. This dock had room for four boats! There are beautiful biking, and hiking trails, both concrete and dirt. Several play areas for the kids! There was a beach and swimming area, a nature center,, and playgrounds. The camp hosts were amazing and very helpful. The park was super clean, family and pet friendly, and a great price at 28 dollars a night. Happy camping!!

    Hidden Treasure RV Resort

    Great location

    This campground is located on the Cotile lake in Boyce, Louisiana. And it's only about 8 or 10 minutes from I-49, but well worth the time. There is a small boat launch/fishing area. A couple of the guests are long term, but it is very quiet here. No matter what site you are in, you will need to level your rv. We are in site #17 and it overlooks the lake. Owners are fantastic. Highly recommend.

    South Campground — Chicot State Park

    Great State Park

    Chicot State Park is wonderful and well maintained. We had a wonderful weekend stay, and the weather was perfect. Take the time to drive around to the East Landing in the evening before sunset. It has one of the prettiest views of Chicot Lake. Also drive down to the South Fishing Pier below the South Campground. It has a long pier that goes out into the lake. My son spent a lot of time at the splash pad. Be sure to visit the free La. State Arboretum onsite. It has a great visitor center with some fantastic exhibits and nice hiking trails. 

    Stayed in campsite#84. It has a nice deck with picnic table. BBQ grill and fire pit are on the other side of the RV spot. Even though it is in the front, it is actually quite secluded with woods all around. Nearest neighbor was at least 40-50 ft. Away. My son could easily walk or ride his bike to the splash pad. Both AT&T and Verizon had poor signal(1 bar each). Was able to connect to the free park Wi-Fi. It was slow, but I could send text messages and make the occasional phone call. Wasn't a big deal, because I came here to camp and get unplugged. We camped at Chicot State Park in a Travel Trailer.

    Shady Lake RV Park

    Feels like a Trailer Park rather than a Campground

    I was out looking for a place to camp. I drove around the park. Some RV’s had dug in their sewer hoses for a more permanent living arrangement. There were other clues that verified some were living here very long term. You could tell some sites were set up like the people had been living there longer than a year.

    While the owner was very nice and friendly, I just would not feel comfortable camping around people who live there long term.

    I have since found out that this happens around Military Bases frequently. The reason is because it makes more financial sense for Military Personnel to not stay in base housing. Permanent Base Housing sucks their housing allowance away quickly. However, purchasing an RV and getting into a campground enables them to keep more of that money in their pockets.

    This campground is near Fort Polk. I was told by one of the Army People that works there, this is what is happening with all of the RV resorts/campgrounds in the area. I understand what’s happening better now.

    However, camping in a campground around a majority of the people that live in a place long term is more like moving into an old neighborhood. It’s equivalent to going to camp in a residential trailer park. That’s not camping. 🤷🏻‍♀️

    Lakeview Park

    PRETTY, BUT NOISY

    Don't get me wrong, I am not antisocial, but when I go camping I really want the natural quiet of nature. It was pretty busy, with many people gathered and partying. Kids driving crazy on golf carts. Otherwise, the property is pretty. The sites are easily accessible (our camper is approximately 30 ft). The showers were not available d/t covid 19, but were there. Our site 12 was level and had full hookups. Pet friendly. Large trees. Store on site and snack shop near the beach. Very kid friendly.
