This is our favorite place to be in nature close to New Orleans. The creek hike to the swimming hole is our favorite part. But the kid also really love fishing at the pond and seeing all the poultry.

Nice vibe! Did you know there's a community fridge? For us it was a sane, safe and quite special place to spend 4 nights leading up to Mardi Gras 2026 Thanks for sharing Mark.

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.

We had a great time camping out in Pelican Gardens! It has everything you could need & is nestled in the perfect location to take the ferry across the river and go out for the night.

I stayed here because it was an affordable place to stay for Mardi Gras, but I definitely plan to come back when I have more time to hang out and volunteer at the farm! It is a very quiet and peaceful space, and a really cool project based on taking care of the community :)

Great view and allows you to truly camp, many animals talking in the woods and great fishing. Campsites are quiet but noisy in surrounding areas surprisingly.

I loved tent camping here! The setup was just as described, and the amenities were unique and perfect. The location was ideal for spending New Year's in NOLA. The ferry was quick and only $2 one way, so I could explore the city and escape to some serenity to sleep. I highly recommend this spot.

Best spot around. It supports our desire to be in nature and still have access to fresh water and be in a safe environment. There are friendly dogs who love pats and they got along well with our pup. 11/11 Will return again! - Tom & Elizabeth

This piece of campsite in the midst of a gardeb is beautiful as well as comfortable. We camped with a hatch tent attached to our SUV and the campsite was big enough for it. Facilities are clean and you wake up to the sound of birds. Though Mark was not on site during our stay, he was super responsive and helped answer all our questions. Would definitely come back.

We really enjoyed our stay at Pelican Gardens! The gardens were beautiful and we felt very at home in our van. The area was safe and about a 25 minute walk to the ferry which was convenient for us. Being from MN, we loved the weather and the enclosed outdoor shower. Would highly recommend!
