48mi from Alexandria · 2 sites · Tents, RVs
The Ark at Oxbow Lake is a peaceful, faith-inspired RV haven nestled along the gentle curve of a historic oxbow lake. True to its name—evoking the refuge of Noah’s Ark—this campground provides a place of rest and renewal for travelers seeking a deeper connection with nature and the divine. Towering cypress trees line the shore, their moss-draped branches creating a tranquil canopy over the calm waters. Whether you enjoy kayaking at sunrise, casting a line in hopes of reeling in the day’s catch, or simply soaking up the hush of the evening, you’ll find The Ark at Oxbow Lake offers an atmosphere of serenity and spiritual reflection. Come experience a blend of genuine Southern hospitality, comforting amenities, and the soulful beauty of creation—an invitation to step aboard and find refuge in the stillness of these waters.

Bayou Bourbeaux

2. Bayou Bourbeaux

47mi from Alexandria · 7 sites · Tents, RVs
Located about 15 minutes from downtown Natchitoches on a quiet street that parallels the bayou Bourbeaux. Giant ancient oaks tower over the property. There are old pecan trees and lots and lots of flat green grass. You can put your tent or rv/trailer/camper/car/boat/atv basically anywhere you’d like. There’s a central fire pit in the grassy area and a propane one on the porch. We have hammocks and giant connect 4, jenga, tic tac toe and cornhole. There’s also an unheated seasonal above ground pool you can use with a waiver. Tents: There is no outhouse but for an extra charge we can provide a porta potty and potty tent as well as a water pump for water. Breakfast is included in the price. RVs: we prefer you be self contained but if you need electric you can park on our driveway and use the outlet on the side of the house. We can fill you up with water from the hose if needed. Breakfast is included at the bed and breakfast! Lodging: this is also a full service bed and breakfast. We are the PERFECT spot to host family reunions. Families can camp and use the bed and breakfast for the weekend with plenty of space for everyone! We also host small weddings! It’s quiet. Birds are always chirping. You can watch the beautiful sunrise each morning from the rocking chairs on the old farmhouse porch. Have s’mores and watch the stars at night. Explore Natchitoches and the many nearby lakes during the day. We can also rent you kayaks. If you’d like additional meals beyond breakfast, we can serve you (additional cost). We are also a tea room. If you’d like a traditional English tea under the oaks, let us know!
