We stayed one night here in a pop-up camper. It was cold, so we didn't have the mosquito problems that so many mention. It's true wetland country, surrounded by a canal, a lake, and a bayou. We'd like to come back with a kayak. Sites were nice and private, bath house was exceptional (especially compared with other LA state parks), and it was quiet. Only negative was that it's not on the beaten path, which might actually be a positive!
This is an excellent spot for a stopover with very clean bathhouse and easy parking. This area was very full because of area construction projects and travelling contractors. Quiet except for the inevitable train, easy to find, level. We try to avoid parking lot type parks, but this one was among the best.
We enjoyed staying here 2 nights in our pop-up camper as we visited Memphis. Just a 20 minute drive into downtown, with large wooded sites, a fine bathhouse, and trails from the campground through the woods. Co-located with a Mississippian Native archaelogical site that's interesting to walk through. Deserted when we stayed there on a Saturday night in February.
We stayed here for 3 nights in a pop-up camper, used the bathhouse. This campground can't be beat for access to New Orleans and price, but it was badly damaged in Hurricane Ida in 2021 and has not been maintained very well. The bathhouse was clean but not ventilated, so it was always wet. One temperature for showers - hot! At least it wasn't cold. And all the nice trees in the surrounding bayou are now either down or at an angle that assures they're going to die. They cleaned up the trees from walkways and roads, but nowhere else. We heard this park is the biggest moneymaker for LA, but compared to other LA parks we stayed at, they're not using the money here. Still, sites are reasonably large and level, quiet at night despite the closeness to the city, and the price can't be beat.
