WELCOME TO BUTTE LA ROSE, THE HEART OF THE ATCHAFALAYA BASIN AND THE HEART OF ACADIANA:
In the early 1930s when the Army Corps of Engineers carved two long levees right through the Atchafalaya River Basin, what had once been a widely sprawling river system prone to seasonal flooding became a fifteen-mile-wide "spillway" contained between those two earthen walls. The water level in the Basin rose by several feet, permanently flooding many areas, and people who had made their homes there eventually moved to communities on the dry, western side of the levee--Henderson, Catahoula, Bayou Benoit and beyond--leaving no trace of the old settlements behind. Only one community remained. Perched on a ridge along the banks of the Atchafalaya River, Butte La rose is the only community in St. Martin Parish that is still located between the Basin levees. No other place can claim to be the heart of Atchafalaya as credibly as Butte La Rose can. The community is nestled against one of the more winding meanderings of the Atchafalaya River, and residents remain closely tied to the river and other nearby waterways--fishing, crawfishing, frogging and hunting, enjoying bayou-side crawfish boils and pleasure boating. So many waterways surround Butte La Rose--Butte La Rose Canal, Henderson Lake, Lake Begneaux, Lake Pelba--it's as close to an island as you can get without actually being an island.
We are only 3 miles from interstate 10 but we are a small remote camping village.
Many hummingbirds visit here every year. They arrive in March and leave in Sept.

I stayed at what I think is the best spot—Campsite 2—and had a great experience. The water was beautiful, and the whole area felt peaceful and relaxing. Damon was helpful and let me know where water might collect if it rained. My dog and I weren’t bothered by anyone and really enjoyed the quiet. I’d definitely stay here again.

I would most definitely recommend Damon's land for camping! It was peaceful and quiet but not too far from town. As a solo female camper, I felt safe. Having access to the RV (which could have been a little cleaner, but was not the worst public bathroom I've seen!) with a flush toilet, hot running water, and shower was a game changer for my trip ~ I had planned to split my 2 week vacation between camping and hostels, but decided to camp the whole time! I will camp on Damon's land again the next time I am in Louisiana!

Wow this wonderful place is not only charming but has so much to do around it. Ginny & Scotty are the most wonderful hosts. Ginny has all information for you when you arrive about restaurants, local pubs, 100 yr old store that was a gem. They have a very level spot with a picnic table, Tiki torches and a very nice porch to sit and enjoy getting to know each other. We cant wait to come back.

Awesome site! Very nice and easy access right off the road. We arrived late at night and were able to drive right in and hookup since the host had provided extension connections for all services. Very quiet location and very well maintained. Hosts were very kind and provided us with printed local information for the area as well as a small gift. Would definitely visit again the next time we are in the area!

This campsite is beautiful. The host, Damon, is a wonderful guy. He does live on-site which wasn't an issue, in fact, I felt safer knowing he was around. The upkeep on the property is well done. Damon allowed us to move sites when we realized we weren't getting as much shade as we wanted in the peak of the day. Our dogs had plenty of room the explore and run. My husband and I were so impressed that we extended our stay.
Other notes: This property isn't super remote. Yes there are neighbors and traffic but nothing remotely as bad as a hotel by the interstate or even a KOA.

Absolutely the sweetest hosts we have ever encountered. We ended up with car trouble just before we hit the campsite and they were so kind and helpful. Upon arrival we recieved a brochure highlighting local history and attractions complete with good recommendations and sites to see, and even a welcome gift. We decided to stay an extra night. Hosts are friendly and kind, site it well kept and peaceful, and the setting couldn’t be more lovely.

Campsites with fishing near Luskentyre guide
Where to go
Luskentyre Sands
The stunning white sands of Luskentyre’s beach offer the perfect setting for wild camping. The West Harris Trust, a community owned charity, also operates five camping sites in Luskentyre and nearby Shelibost that are suitable for tents, campervans and caravans. All sites are just a short stroll from the shore.
Horgabost
Around a 10-minute drive south down the coast from Luskentyre, Horgabost is another stunning white sand beach with crystal-clear turquoise water. Slightly more sheltered than Luskentyre, the beach looks over the Sound of Taransay and is the departure point for boat trips. By the beach, overlooking the offshore island of Taransay, Horgabost Campsite is a small and friendly site.
Lickisto
Turning east, you’ll find a remarkably different side to Lewis and Harris on the opposite coast, with a rugged, almost-lunar, landscape of rocky cliffs dotted with small coves and beaches. Perched above a sea loch, Lickisto Blackhouse Camping offers a unique experience with a range of options of offer, from grass and hardstanding pitches for tents and motorhomes, to glamping in a yurt with woodburning stove or staying in a restored 150-year-old blackhouse.
When to go
For experiencing Luskentyre Sands in all its glorious, tropical glory, visiting in the summer months is highly recommended. You can take advantage of optimum weather and long daylight hours that stretch well past 10 p.m. July and August also bring the spectacle of wild flowers carpeting the grasslands, known as the machair, along the west coast, as well as many outdoor events. This is also peak season, so be sure to make reservations in advance.
Know before you go
- Wild camping is legal in Scotland as long as you follow the Scottish Outdoor Access Code.
- Biting midges are a common summertime nuisance in the Scottish Highlands and islands. Don’t forget to pack repellant and long sleeves.
- While it is possible to get around Lewis and Harris by public bus, having your own transportation allows far more flexibility.
- There are a few small stores around Luskentyre, but Stornoway’s supermarkets are your best bet for stocking up on major groceries.
