    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.

    Looks like a blast!

    Traveling through for the night. Just a few minutes from the interstate. Spacious sites. Friendly staff. They are upgrading many things in the park like electric, location of setups, etc. Has fishing and more. 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! No doubt a great place to bring the family. Will stop by next time through. Hope it's when festivities are going.

    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.

    Tickfaw State Park Campground

    Highly recommended, but busy on 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. Really impressed with the cleanliness of the grounds, but some of the fire pits and grills could use some work. Great variety of campsite layouts, as well as a couple of wheelchair friendly ones. Facilities were clean and plentiful. Several miles of trails showcasing the beauty of southern Louisiana. Will definitely be going back.

    Lake End Park Campground & Marina

    Good For An Overnight

    Large campground and park that has RV areas and tent camping areas as well. There are a few loops in this campground. Some are paved; the further loop where we stayed is not. Our site was right on the water where were could see pelicans diving for fish and other water birds as well. 

    If you are looking for privacy this is NOT your place. Sites are very close together and we had to make sure our slide did not hit the neighbor's truck side mirror! Also not very quiet. If you don't hear boats roaming around then you can hear children playing in the multiple playgrounds or the neighbor's music playing or overall road noise. It is a good place if you just need a night or if you fish or have a boat I suppose. 

    Bathrooms/showers are not very convenient and are not very nice.  The shower was full of bugs (dead and alive) and though free you had to consistently keep pushing the "on" button to turn the water on for 30 second intervals.  Also, you have no choice as far as water temperature. It wasn't too cold or too hot but if you want hotter in the winter or cooler water in the summer, you don't get that option. There was also only one hook for belongings and the door wasn't secure.

    There is a laundry room but it was so far from us (in the other camping loop) that we did not go to it even though we picked this place so we could take showers and do laundry.

    This campground is convenient and cheap and close to town and the highway but I don't think I would stay here again unless I was desperate. It is nice and well maintained and clean but the closeness of people and the distance to amenities is a no go.

    There is trash (no recycling) as well as the aforementioned showers, bathrooms and laundry. There is also a beach area, playgrounds  and boating/fishing. There is a fire pit, picnic table and full hook ups at each site for the RVs.

    The website is weird because the "off" and "busy" seasons seem opposite and from other reviews they had disputes over the cost, so we weren't sure what to expect, but we paid $20 online for a Monday night and the nice office ladies didn't say anything when we were checking in.

    Hidden Oaks Family Campground

    Fun family campground

    this campground has been around for a long time.  It has great festive activities for the seasonal holidays and a general laid back mind set year round.  Halloween decorations were in full effect.  The campground has a river running through it making it a great option to go up river and kayak back down.  

    The campground is split into 2 sides - primitive and RV.  A general store sits in the middle for any necessities.  We setup our tent area in the primitive area near the river/beach area.  It has many trails to walk through, open areas for activities, bath houses, and more.

    Lake Fausse Pointe State Park Campground

    Perfect Disconnected on the Water Getaway

    We stayed at spot 38. We we're right on the water with our own dock/deck. Close to the restrooms but not much through traffic. Dumpster was right across next to the bathrooms. Not a lot of street lights throughout the campground made things nice and quiet at night. Spots were asphalt and needed a decent bit of leveling. The water and electricity hookups were on the camp side, which made for an awkward parking job to accommodate for the cord lengths. The site had no Verizon cell service, in order to receive notifications or just make a phone call you have to walk back towards the main road. The hiking trails were very nice with lots of shorts and long options. The canoe trails were also nice with the ability to rent kayaks or canoes. Overall the campground was clean, relativity quiet, right on the water, and is perfect if you are looking to disconnect.

    Lake End Park Campground & Marina

    Very nice camping area

    I think this is a very nice camping area for both RV’s and tent camping, but it does have some minor drawbacks. There is a protected area on the lake within the park that you can launch your boat and they do have two restrooms with showers as well as washers and dryer’s to clean your clothes. Bathrooms in nearly every camping area across the country I’ve been to aren’t exactly up to home standards, but it is functional. The people working at the park have always been friendly and helpful. I like to tent camp and even the tent campsites have electrical hook ups. The truly bizarre thing about that is we are located in South Louisiana where the temperatures are absolutely brutally hot and majority of the year and yet they have a rule that clearly states you cannot have an air conditioner in your tent. And luckily, I didn’t see that the first four or five times I stayed there and no one said a word. Why in the world could you not hook up a portable AC unit in your tent considering electrical hook ups are provided and AC units make nearly no noise? Speaking of noise, the park is located in just inside a 90° curve in the highway with two sets of rumble strips in each direction. Being located practically within the city limits of Morgan city, or noise from traffic and the rumble strips doesn’t quiet down until well after midnight and picks back up again in full force around 5 AM. I couple that with the majority of the people here wanting their trucks to make the most noise possible, it’s a bit distracting and makes sleep difficult. Like all camping areas, people are going to listen to all manners and types of music but that quiet down significantly after 10 PM. my last trip about a week ago I noticed that my particular campsite was covered in fire ants that would start to build colonies within all your camping equipment left on the ground outside and they also built a major ant city underneath our tent that wasn’t an issue until I was breaking down the camp and the ants decided to scatter all over the tent inside and out.  the fishing is fantastic down here and the wildlife is incredible. You will see alligators of course along with rabbits, black squirrels, osprey bald eagles as well as seagulls and pelicans given our close proximity to the gulf coast. The office has people working in it every day of the week and and there is a Coke machine at the office and they do sell 8 pound bags of ice for $2. Overall, I really like camping here and then will continue to do so as long as no one says anything about having an AC unit in my tent as I would not consider staying in a tent in South Louisiana without one.

    New Orleans West KOA

    Clean and Friendly

    This KOA is a gem! It offers all the amenities that a camper would need. It is super clean has large concrete pads, and is easy to get to from the interstate. When you arrive you will be greeted by friendly staff both outside and inside the office. This isn’t the biggest KOA we’ve been to but it has it all. A pool, laundry and bath house, shuttle for downtown and you can rent a barbecue for grilling. It is safe and we took the short walk to the levy and walked along the Mississippi River. The best part was they can book any tour you’d like to do. We were here in the off season but I would imagine if you came during the busy times you could book through them and avoid long lines. They do not charge to do this. They run a shuttle to the French Quarter and it’s only $15 for adults which is about the same to drive down and pay for parking. They also have dog walking services for your furry family members. This is a great spot to stay and explore New Orleans.

Guide to Prairieville

Campsites near Prairieville, Louisiana provide diverse camping experiences beyond the typical glamping options. Situated in the subtropical Gulf Coast region with an average elevation of 26 feet, this area experiences high humidity and mild winters. Seasonal flooding affects campground accessibility from late winter through spring, with water levels often determining which trails and campsites remain open.

What to do

Water activities on Tickfaw River: The river system running through Tickfaw State Park Campground creates opportunities for exploring Louisiana's waterways. "You can also still see massive tree damage throughout the park but the campground area has been cleaned up," notes MickandKarla W., highlighting the park's recovery from hurricane damage while maintaining recreation areas.

Wildlife viewing treks: Early morning and dusk are prime times for wildlife spotting in the swamp areas. As Sean S. shares, "Several miles of trails showcasing the beauty of southern Louisiana. Will definitely be going back." Bring binoculars for better sightings of native birds and animals.

River kayaking trips: Launch your kayak upstream and float back to camp at Hidden Oaks Family Campground. "The campground has a river running through it making it a great option to go up river and kayak back down," explains Shaun B. Rental options are available at several locations if you don't have your own equipment.

What campers like

Free laundry services: Rare among campgrounds, Lake Fausse Pointe State Park Campground provides complimentary laundry facilities. "FREE laundry, elevation 6 ft., dump station, electric, water, showers, flush toilets, Verizon cell service," mentions Annell N., highlighting practical amenities that make extended stays more comfortable.

Dog-friendly facilities: Pet owners appreciate dedicated areas for their companions. "Great dog park area at campground. If leAve Koa property towards back via bike or foot there is a nice park with playground equipment and another large dog area," writes Nicole R. about her experience at Baton Rouge KOA.

Senior discounts: Many state parks in the region offer significant price reductions. "LA State Parks give a 50% discount for seniors 62+ and you don't have to be a state resident. The ranger processed a refund for us as he checked us in," reports MickandKarla W., noting substantial savings that can extend camping trips.

What you should know

Flooding concerns: Water levels require advance planning and potential schedule flexibility. "I have had a few of my reservations cancelled by the park when the river is high because the camping areas will flood," warns Paula W. from Tickfaw State Park Campground.

Insect preparation: The swampy environment means heavy mosquito presence, especially during warmer months. "Was unable to go far on walk due to the thick blanket of mosquitoes. I'm sure its nice once they arent so bad," explains Tyler H. Pack multiple types of repellent and consider screened shelters for eating areas.

Wildlife safety: Lake End Park Campground & Marina visitors should be aware of natural inhabitants. "They do have lots of snakes in the rocks along the water that like to 'sun' themselves. Also it's full of gators. So watch your kiddos in the water and pets," cautions Nichole B.
