165 Reviews

Cabins near Baton Rouge provide varied accommodation options with concrete amenities. Baton Rouge KOA offers cabin rentals with access to full hookups, showers, and toilets in a well-maintained setting. "Very clean KOA with pull through slots," notes one visitor about the facilities. The cabins feature electricity and comfortable sleeping arrangements, with nearby amenities including a swimming pool, hot tub, and game room that families appreciate during extended stays.

Options range from rustic to deluxe cabins across several locations including Lakeside RV Park and Tickfaw State Park Campground. Most properties allow pets in cabin accommodations, though specific restrictions may apply. Reservations are essential, particularly during peak travel periods. According to feedback on The Dyrt, "The grounds were well manicured, there is a large pond/small lake with a walking path around half of it." Cabin sites typically include picnic tables and many have fire rings for outdoor cooking and gathering.

Most cabins come equipped with basic furnishings but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and personal items. Kitchen facilities vary by location, with some offering microwaves and refrigerators while others have minimal cooking options. Camp Margaritaville RV Resort in Breaux Bridge and Indian Creek Campground provide on-site markets for basic provisions, though many cabin guests prefer to stock up at grocery stores in Denham Springs or Livingston before arrival.

    Natalabany Creek Campground and RV Park

    RV'S AND CABINS ONLY

    This campground is for RV's and Cabin rentals only. This park has lots of things to keep the kiddo's occupied. There is a HUGE pond for catch and release fish (no swimming or boating). There is an arcade room, swimming pool, putt putt golf, and a really great creek behind the cabins. This sites are spacious with water, electric, and sewer. This is the kind of place to stay at while exploring the local area(s). Very clean park, very nice staff. The cabins are so cute, comfy and sleep 8. Also a great place for bike riding (road, not mountain). The location is just off of the Interstate with easy access.

    This is definitely a vacation type park. No roughing it here.

    Camp Margaritaville RV Resort Breaux Bridge

    Super fun place to be

    Our site was $63 a night for 5 nights & $79 for two nights. We got a weekly rate of $574.16

    We were in Site# 2144 The check in was at 12pm and Check out is at 11am.
    We had Full hook- up with a concrete pull-through.
    We travel towing a 14 foot trailer and were able to fit both in our pull through site along with my jeep.

    The site was easy to level.

    Our site was fairly shaded with one tree. This was a smaller lot with our neighbors fairly close.

    The lot comes with a concrete patio with picnic table and fire ring.

    It is an easy access to the campground from highway -(less than 1 mile from highway).

    There is free WiFi. They offer Cable TV and there are many channels.

    There is not a community outdoor kitchen but do have quite a few community fire pits.
    They sell wood but were out the entire week we were there.

    They pickup your garbage at your site daily.

    You are allowed to ride personal golf carts. They also allow you to rent golf carts. It is beneficial to have a golf cart to get around since it is a large campground. They would not let us use our e-bikes around the campground.

    They do have multiple swimming pools including a water playground and splash pad. There is a huge hot tub. We especially loved the 21+pool with swim up bar. Water Amenities are open from March 29th-October 26th. You can also rent poolside cabanas. They have a few smaller ponds for catch & release fishing.

    They have a decent general store with some food, accessories, and clothes options.

    There is a separate Activity Center for kids. There are tons of scheduled activities for kids like gem mining, tie dying, candle making, candy bar bingo, sand art, etc.

    There is a Playground. They also offer pickleball, cornhole, and basketball sport court. There is a Game room for kids. They have a workout room for adults.

    There are three bars (one serving food) and a separate concession stand that also serves food.

    Right outside of the park is a delicious restaurant/fresh seafood market with a daiquiri drive thru (many flavors).

    There is live music on site!

    The streets are paved and good for riding bikes. There is not really anywhere to ride bikes outside of campground.

    They have multiple RV slip options along with cabins/cottages/villas for rent. Tent camping is not allowed.

    They have many shower houses. The shower house has individual bathrooms with your own sink, shower, toilet. These are kept very clean.

    There is a few laundry facilities. They allow you to use cash or credit card. It is approximately $2 to wash and $2to dry a load.

    They have a fenced in dog park (Barkaritaville) with a dog wash. It is located in the back far corner of the park.

    Bugs were a little bit of an issue and bug spray was definitely needed.

    There were no trails to hike in the campground but the park is so huge, it is a great walk within itself.

    We shopped at the local market outside of the park and the Piggly Wiggly. We went on the Cajun Food Tour and definitely recommend this (link on CM’s website).

    Baton Rouge KOA

    Great location, safe and warm southern hospitality

    We stopped in Baton Rouge on our cross country journey from CA to Florida.  We had plans in the area for an authentic swamp tour and a visit to New Orleans.  The KOA is a really great place to stay.  We arrived late on our first night and rolled in and went to bed.  The next day, a Saturday, the KOA serves a home-cooked breakfast (for a small charge.). When you don't have groceries, and you are tired - this was a wonderful treat!  The hosts gave us many suggestions on our visit to New Orleans.  If you need to go to the store, it is close to many major stores and grocery stores.  It was clean and every staff person we met was helpful.  They even refilled our propane.  It's always nice to meet locals who have area recommendations and we appreciated the hospitality.

    Tip: If you are looking for a unique, nature based experience, I highly recommend Captain Ronnie, owner of River of Swamp Boat Tours.  He takes you out on the bayou where you see the beautiful scenery, birds, trees and yes, alligators!  This was one of the highlights of our trip.

    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.

    Tunica Hills Campground

    Mostly peaceful

    You have to carry your stuff to your camp site as people have already said. Ownership is nice and helpful. You can buy a small bundle of wood for $5. Stayed in the little A frame cabin. Port-o-potties are clean and there is a shower and a sink. I also had good service the whole time(verizon.)

    Poche's RV Park & Fish-N-Camp

    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.

    Tunica Hills Campground

    Beautiful and unique

    Loved this small quiet camp ground. It is basically hike-in, although the host is great enough to offer to haul your stuff with her 4WD atv cart. The common areas are a surprising bonus. Shower was lukewarm but portopotties are spotless. Dishwashing station and outdoor kitchen are icing on cake.

    We stayed at the site “Wilson” which was incredible. If you don’t want / need electricity site #10 is tops.

    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.

Guide to Baton Rouge

Cabin camping near Baton Rouge, Louisiana offers diverse experiences for outdoor enthusiasts within reasonable driving distances. The region sits at low elevations ranging from 30-70 feet above sea level with a humid subtropical climate that supports lush vegetation. Water features prominently in the local landscape, with numerous lakes, bayous, and the Mississippi River creating abundant opportunities for water-based recreation year-round.

What to do

Paddle the waterways: Several cabin locations provide direct water access for kayaking and canoeing. At Lake Fausse Pointe State Park Campground, visitors can rent canoes and explore the bayou ecosystem. "Kayaked the loop, it has been very rainy, trying to find a middle ground between dry firewood/ground and not being eaten alive by mosquitoes seems tough, but an overall great place to spend a day!" notes reviewer Van N.

Fish from dedicated structures: Many cabin properties feature fishing docks and piers. "There's a fishing lake behind the CG down a short road between sites 15 and 17. The lake has a cool boardwalk fishing pier that was in good shape," reports MickandKarla W. about their stay at Tickfaw State Park Campground.

Explore hiking trails: Wooded trails near cabin accommodations provide opportunities to observe local wildlife. "Very nice kayaking. Playgrounds for kids, probably loud in the summer," writes Cat R. about Indian Creek Campground, adding that the trails are well maintained.

Visit nearby attractions: Cabins provide a base for exploring regional points of interest. "We had plans in the area for an authentic swamp tour and a visit to New Orleans. If you are looking for a unique, nature based experience, I highly recommend Captain Ronnie, owner of River of Swamp Boat Tours," suggests Karen S., who stayed at Baton Rouge KOA.

What campers like

Concrete pads and level sites: Many cabin and RV sites feature paved, level surfaces. "All concrete sites and a beautiful lake. Exceptionally maintained," says Walt W. about Lakeside RV Park, which provides stable foundations during wet weather conditions.

Covered outdoor structures: Protected areas allow for outdoor recreation regardless of weather. "Love the amenities they provided 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," reports Casey L. about Lakeside RV Park.

Spacious sites with privacy: Some locations offer more secluded cabin options. "This is probably my favorite place to visit in Louisiana. The primitive camping sites are on little peninsulas just big enough for you and your group, so it's truly private," explains Kassie R. about Indian Creek Campground.

Laundry facilities: On-site laundry amenities prove valuable during extended stays. "They actually have a laundry room with 3 washers and dryers costing both $1.75 to wash & dry," notes MickandKarla W. about their Tickfaw State Park Campground experience.

What you should know

Mosquito preparation essential: The humid environment supports active insect populations, especially near water. "Was able to take a bunch of pictures and have a good trip regardless, but disappointed I couldn't stay. Also had absolutely no service with verizon," reports Tyler H. from Lake Fausse Pointe State Park Campground.

Seasonal considerations: Summer heat impacts camping comfort. "Love the amenities they provided 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. about Lakeside RV Park.

Road conditions vary: Some access roads require caution. "If your rig is over 10' tall, don't come in through Butte LaRose, there's a bridge you won't get across! Come in through Henderson," advises Tom C. about Lake Fausse Pointe State Park Campground.

Wildlife encounters: Cabin guests should anticipate local fauna. "Had a couple of snakes show up creeping under our camper. After that I just couldn't enjoy it, lol. Nice trails where we saw a couple of alligators," writes Cat R. about Tickfaw State Park.

Tips for camping with families

Seek out covered play areas: Shaded playgrounds provide relief from summer heat. "They added a covered playground for kids. I mean covered with a very large steel structure. The playground is covered with rubber mulch," recommends Joey H. about Lakeside RV Park.

Consider weekend noise levels: Some locations become livelier during weekends. "Went for a few nights solo camping (with my dog) in late January, so we had the tent area to ourselves until Friday afternoon," notes Sean S. about Tickfaw State Park.

Look for educational opportunities: Nature centers enhance family experiences. "The park offers a nature center that is really nice and they have animal demonstrations where you are able to really learn about Louisiana wildlife and touch the animals as well," shares Paula W. about Tickfaw State Park Campground.

Select sites with adequate space: Families need room to spread out. "Campsites were spacious and quite. There's fishing and plenty of walking trails. Highly suggested for those that prefer the state park wildlife camping," recommends Amanda B.

Tips from RVers

Check cell service availability: Coverage varies significantly between properties. "We got 2 bars on Verizon," reports MickandKarla W. about Tickfaw State Park Campground.

Verify site dimensions: Space constraints can affect larger rigs. "Site 17 pretty much sits off by itself and it's one of the most spacious sites in the CG. Most of the sites are pretty much a 90 degree angle to back-in but there's enough room to swing your vehicle. If you are worried about backing, site 15 is probably the easiest back-in site the way it sits off a curve," advises MickandKarla W.

Consider water quality: Water filtration may be necessary at some locations. "Very simplistic campground compared to some others we've been to recently. Few attractions but overall very quiet and friendly folks. Tip: Make sure to have a water filter on your camper for this one," suggests Taylor G. about Cajun Heritage RV Park.

Note power options: Electrical service types vary between locations. "No 110 electric outlets only 30 and 50 amp service," notes For Y., which is important information for those planning to stay in cabins requiring standard household outlets.
