We stopped at this campground for one night on our way home. Some of the sites are close together, but we called and they put us in a spot that was very spacious. There were almost no other campers there so it helps to go in the middle of the week. The staff was very friendly and they had a great hiking path and playground for our 5 year old. I biked most of the paved roads in the state park and was able to go 13 miles without doubling anywhere. The cabins looked great from the outside and are located right on the lake. There is a long fishing pier and boat rentals. This is definitely one we will return to. Also, it is located very close to a lot of antique shopping which my wife wouldn’t let me pass up on my way home.

We had a very good time fishing

Ms. Brenda is the best! This campground has all the amenities! Hot water is tricky but the coffee pot makes up for it. There’s a microwave as well. Most of all the sites are separated by the ravines. We hiked down to the creek from the site and also went on trail C at tunica. I wouldn’t recommend trail c if you have small kids unless you wear them in a pack. Brenda has wood you can purchase if you forgot or run out. We were right next to the bathroom, sink, and shower.

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.

Wristbands that had to be worn at all times. We never encountered any wristband police so we didn’t wear.
Campground road in horrendous condition with non stop pot holes
Only 2 women’s and 2 men’s toilets for the entire park which are in the pool house. Since we didn’t see any other on the campground map we inquired at the welcome center/office/store and they confirmed those are it for the park.

Sites tightly slammed together
Our campfire ring was under the next sites camper slide out, so totally unuseable

Guide
Clean and quiet. Trails are well maintained. Our spot was a perfect ledge overlooking the lake . Can’t beat $20 a night which includes electric and water.
GuideAmenities u would expect from KOA. Quiet. Level site. Paved. Shower room, private but no sink or mirror in one of the bathhouses. Staff super nice. I would stay again. Verizon was spotty at times.
GuideWe had just bought our rig down the street from this KOA. The staff was wonderful and they walked us through setting up the rv. Everyone was very friendly. It’s a beautiful camp ground. Close to a lot of things ie RV stores, food, etc. we are planning to visit again soon. It is by far our favorite place
GuideGreat campground and awesome bath houses. Great hiking trails. Very quiet and secluded. Verizon service was weak. Loved it and will return.
RangerYou 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.)
ScoutMy site was across the street from one of the 5 large ponds to fish in. 21 was a shaded spot and only 5 spots from playground, splash pad,pool and store.Great people to work with. Golf carts to rent with lots of room to ride around. Only improvement could be on bathroom and showers no a/c or doors ,only curtains but clean just bugs and heat down falls.
Legend$20, $13 with fed pass. 22 sites. Electric & water hookups. Dump station. Two campground loops - B: Sites 1-12, & A: Sites 13-22. Loop A is prettier that Loop B, but Loop B has more level sites which may be more suitable for larger campers. Camped at site 7 in a camper van. Large site backed against the woods with access to a hiking trail. Not much privacy between sites. Nice family campground. Sites have table, lantern post & fire ring. Picnic Area also in this rec area. Beautiful setting by the lake. Restroom/shower house needs some work. Mens shower stalls have standing water in them - possible drainage issue. Women's toilet stalls also have a similar issue due to a leaky toilet. Bugs were not too bad here in April. No AT&T & T-Mobile service at our campsite, but picked up a weak signal by the lake.
GuideLoved 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.
RangerWe preferred the ridge loop. Clean bathrooms with shower. Good access to trails nearby. Electricity and water at site. Sites feel private.
TravelerClean park with friendly, helpful staff. Sites are closely spaced but we didn’t feel cramped or invaded. Full hookup site with a level concrete pad. Pool and hot tub were clean and well maintained. Putt putt golf and the game room were enjoyed by all, especially the grandkids.
GuideI've never stayed in a nicer KOA that this one.
The tents sites were VERY small. I could barely fit a 1 person tent in the designated area (reason for 4 vs 5 stars). Facilities were amazing.
RangerThe campground is very secluded, so you get to experience the sounds of the woods at night. Clark’s Creek is nearby for superb hiking. Port-a-Potty was clean. Road in to site is narrow, but camp host very nice. Call to reserve.
TravelerNice park and water around. Husband liked it for fishing and we liked the big park. I bet is even nicer in summer time with all the water around! -1 star since the bathroom has no door it was way to cold to use
RangerPoches 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.

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.
TravelerThe campground is well taken care of. The owner rides her cart through the campsite several times a day to deliver firewood as needed. There are areas for the kids to play in the woods some of the areas are steep and they needed supervision (5&6 year old). It’s about a 10 minute drive to the wildlife management area if you are in to that. Geocaching and several trails nearby. My only suggestion for improvement would be to remove the indoor sink and install a 2nd shower in the bath house. We are already planning our trip back.
ScoutThis was the first campground we visited after purchasing our camper and it immediately became our favorite place to go. Extra clean, extra relaxing and excellent location of the rv campsites right on the water. Definitely a must visit especially if you’re local.
ScoutPeaceful, relaxing, beautiful
ScoutBeautiful grounds and very friendly people. Tons of activities for kids and adults! Pet friendly! And each site is set up great and all the grounds are clean!
ScoutWonderful staff. Grounds kept very clean. Would definitely stop here again.
ScoutNice spot, area for dogs, cute gift shop and very nice staff.
LegendThis place is for people who like fishing. They have 5 fishing lakes here and every spot is on the lake.
