Reviews
This park would get 5 stars if they keep up better with the sewer sites. We booked a camp site that has sewer dump to make our leaving morning easier. But the sewer was full, so we had to go to the park dump station. The roads in the park are very narrow and have no place safely to disconnect the toll vehicle.
The view is great, not too far from the freeway and only a short drive to a Cafe Du Monde.
I didn't get to check out their showers, but the building look nice from the outside.
It's beautiful even in January. Very well kept facilities. River is great for boating and bird watching, and the paved roads fantastic walking or biking.
Nice campgrounds. Great boardwalk and large sites. My complaint is em that our particular site, 82, was really off-level. The other sites, not on our side, looked really nice. The woman at the office wasn’t very friendly but for $18 who am I to complain?
Beautiful state park. If in the area...Go! You won't be disappointed. Also, Madison is an amazing city you could ride your bikes to. Several great seafood restaurants.
We enjoyed our walk on the trail. Very Beautiful scenery. Love Cypress trees and marsh gardens. Will teturn when in the area again.
Nice state park with great views. All hook ups for RVs and nice trails. Beautiful scenery along the river.
Stayed Feb 2023 in a Roadtrek Class B for 2 nights. Level sites. Beautiful bathrooms were individual units with toilet, sink and shower. Nice laundry facility. I would have given a 5 star but vent fans in shower not working and the only toilets available were in the showers. Really need an additional restroom area in addition to the three shower rooms (3 men/3women). Hosts were very nice! Check in was a breeze. Nice playground area. Boardwalk through swamp was a nice walk. Historic home to tour on grounds but not open while we were here. Both Sites we were on were wet/marshy in areas while we were here but I’m sure that’s a rain issue. Would stay again!
Nice place right on the river. The boardwalk that is on the river is rotten and you can't walk on it to fish. One small trail called "swamp trail" is just a small loop. Only 6 spots have sewage hookups. Ideal place if you have a kayak or boat.
