Lafayettes only yoga van sanctuary.
I loved the space. He had a huge backyard with great, green grass. The bed was very comfortable and the AC was very timely in the warm weather of the south. Neil was a very kind and generous host, and I look forward to going back.

Lafayettes only yoga van sanctuary.
Neil is very sweet and welcoming into his space! I took long bubble baths by candlelight after long days at the festival, which was a pleasure. The sleeping is comfortable enough for a good nights sleep, but also, it’s twin size which I didn’t realize. No biggie since it was just me. I would definitely stay there again. Only 6 minutes driving to downtown. The dogs are super sweethearts too!

Great place to camp!
Lafayettes only yoga van sanctuary.
I loved camping at Neil’s place! He’s an extremely gracious host. I had a wonderful time. He’s got two very friendly and sweet dogs. I had a great time getting to know Neil a little and seeing a bit of layfayette. I highly recommend camping here.

Lovely night by the fire.
Lafayettes only yoga van sanctuary.
Neil’s land is a lovely, calm oasis on the outskirts of Lafayette. We were camping in our car, so didn’t need the van - he made us a fire and we sat round it and had lovely chats. He also has two gorgeous dogs. The area of town is quite rundown, but we felt very welcomed and safe. Thanks to Neil for a lovely stay. I would definitely recommend people to stay here.

Lafayettes only yoga van sanctuary.
Neil was a very friendly host and has created a really unique and relaxing outdoor and indoor space. The place is close to downtown where we saw some great zydeco music. We really enjoyed cooling off in the jacuzzi. There is plenty of space to camp. If you pitch a tent be sure to bring ear plugs for the city noise.

Peaceful and unique.
Lafayettes only yoga van sanctuary.
Neil and the Yoga Van Sanctuary were great. Also enjoyed meeting Pico and Nina, friendly (but not toooo friendly) dogs. Crashing in a van may not be for everyone, but give this a try if you want a unique experience, or just a safe, affordable, and peaceful place to stay in Lafayette.
