RV camping in Louisiana

Name: Louisiana
Address: Louisiana
Rating: 4.5935

Louisiana is famous for the architecture, music, and cuisine of New Orleans, but outdoor lovers shouldn’t miss the chance to explore more of the state’s natural attractions. From buzzy Baton Rouge, the state’s capital which lies on the Mississippi River, to 22 diverse state parks and the Kisatchie National Forest, Louisiana is a wonderful RV destination. Favorites among RVers include Fairview-Riverside State Park, just 45 minutes from New Orleans; Lake Claiborne State Park, between Shreveport and Monroe; and Grand Isle State Park on the state’s only inhabited barrier island. All offer easy access to water activities, from fishing to boating and kayaking, that help take the heat out of the steamy Louisiana summer (when temperatures are typically in the low 90s). With mild weather from late fall to early spring, Louisiana is perfect for year-round RV adventures.

This cozy fenced-in spot provides a place to plug in your RV and stay in the Big Easy in a safe, tucked away side yard just minutes from the Bywater, Marigny and French Quarter and a few blocks from the Mississippi River. You can drive, bike, or Uber to hundreds of bars and restaurants in less than 15 minutes. Enjoy your morning coffee on the brick patio and feel free to use the fire pit (fall/winter only) and hammock! The description says an acre because it is impossible to put in a smaller number, but the actual parking space is about 25 x 50 ft, with additional hangout space nearby. I am right next door (on the other side of the fence) if you need anything and can help navigate entering and setting up and give you a key to lock the gate with. Warning: If your camper/RV is tall, it is tight getting in because there is a branch near the gate that hangs down to about 10.5 - 11 feet. This is best for small pull behinds and camper vans.

Hello Hipcampers! Welcome to Cajun Country! Click on sites and scroll down to choose our full-service RV hookup space, which may include a buddy site for friends. You may also choose to rent our on-site RV, and we offer a comfortable bedroom with a private bath in our home. Any rental includes one tent site if needed, at no charge. We have options for you. Our location has festivals, Cajun Bands and dancing, Cajun food, walking trails, fishing, boating, kayaking, swamp tours, or tour the process of crawfish from pond to table, bird watching, hunting (including alligator), shopping for vintage, antiques, arts or crafts. 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.

They had no children and all these years later, their idea of heaven became ours to take care of now. We are so blessed here at Payne Lane Farms.

The property is surrounded by gardens for guests to enjoy. There is a 15AMP regular outlet to plug into and a nearby water hose for travelers to use. We used to have a white German sheperd "Peanut" but he passed away in 2025. So that's the dog seen in some pics. There is a little dog "Lithium" (terrier mix) that stays on the property and will be out sometimes but generally stays inside the camper belonging to our groundskeeper Jenn.

Very friendly welcome, despite the heavy rain. We were shown to our pitch and guided with everything we need to do, this was our first hook up in the RV, and Brijesh was very helpful. We were able to do our washing in the laundry, all very simple. The parking was completely secure. A 10 minute uber into the centre of New Orleans, makes this a perfect RV parking location for visiting New Orleans.

We were here for 2 nights with 17 ft camper and 2 dogs. Everything worked great and we had a wonderful time. Like any beachy area, there are some goathead burrs. My dogs only encounter 1 burr the whole time. They loved the beach. We had them on long ropes so they could enjoy the water. Only warning would be to protect yourself at night from mosquitos. Turn off all lights before opening your door. Welcome to the south. Overall, very relaxing and quiet. Enjoyed the sunrises and sunsets. Would stay again. 😊

Stayed here for a week during Jazzfest. Affordable RV park in the back of a motel. The manager is very friendly, helpful, and responsive. At $30/night for full hookups it was by far the cheapest option around New Orleans that I found. The park is bare bones, just a gravel lot. The biggest negative for me is it’s right next to the railyard, the trains are loud and I could feel the ground shake at times. I liked that it’s right across the street from the bus line (9), which runs very close to the fairgrounds, I got a week pass on the RTA Le Pass app for $15 for unlimited rides.

Very secure for your trip into New Orleans. Very friendly staff and electric hook ups. I didn’t hear the trains when I slept but they are close so bring ear plugs if you wake to any noise. Uber is around 20-25 to French quarter and there is laundry I Wish there were a little grassy dog area, he did not want to go to the bathroom there, lots of rocks. But again very secure to keep your fur baby safe in your RV while you check out the sights with 24/7 cameras and isn’t that the most important?! We will be back and recommend.

Good place to stay for the budget conscious. Trains didn't bother me at all, actually helped me sleep cause we are train enthusiast and I grew up semi close to hearing trains all night. Yeah, the neighborhood is a little rough, but don't cause any problems won't be any problems. The entire property is securely gated requiring a card to enter for those that are concerned, we weren't. Very close to Jazz Fest and the French Quarter. Brijesh was super nice and accommodating.
