Big Branch Apiary

4 sites · RVs, Tents50 acres · Lacombe, St. Tammany

We sit on 50 acres north of Lake Pontchartrain. We're bounded by the Big Branch Wildlife Reserve to the south and a Rails to Trails bike path on the north. We are 3 miles from LaCombe to the east, Mandeville to the west, and about 1 mile from Fountainbleu State Park. Most of the farm, 80%, is mixed hardwood forest and designated wetlands. Desert Bayou and East Branch Bayou meander across the property which is home to deer, foxes, bobcats, owls, fireflies, otters, raccoons, turtles, and, well, about anything common to the wilds of the Gulf South. This includes a litany of snakes, mosquitoes, and deer flies in their season. About 5 acres are used to raise poultry, bees and organically farmed blueberries. Overall, the land feels primordial and pristine. We are a designated Monarch Waystation and in the spring and fall see many migrating butterflies. We cultivate a lot of flowers so almost year round you can see butterflies in profusion. We are part of the USDAs Conservation Stewardship Program, concentrating on protecting and increasing habitat for animals and pollinators. Dogs are welcome, 2 of them live here, but the chickens often run free and chasing them or the deer for fun or food is not acceptable. This is a rustic situation: think dry camping, outdoor (heated) shower, and port-o-lets. We have hookups for one small RV or camper close to the barn. In addition, we have a 10x10' treehouse, and several places to pitch a tent. The farm is pretty secure--someone is on-site most of the time, it's gated, and there are security cameras at access points. But it is a farm in a rural community--you may hear roosters crow, sheep bleat, dogs bark, and the mule bray along with the sounds of owls, hawks, coyotes and other native wildlife of the area. If this suits you then come stay and enjoy the farm life.

Creekside Farm Co.

6 sites · Tents24 acres · Kiln, Hancock

Once a main railway for lumber in Hancock County, this small 24-acre homestead, acquired in 2010, is home to a variety of farm animals, edible landscaping including multiple varieties of fruit trees and small vegetable gardens. Completely wooded at the time of purchase, the farm is still a work in progress. Daily farm life involves upgrading fences, clearing the 5-acre pasture, building animal pens, installing rain catchment systems, composting, harvesting, canning, baking and our favorite....... feeding the furry and feathered friends. Pitch your tent in our wooded acreage nestled along side a flowing creek bed. Relax on the sand and watch the squirrels play or close your eyes to meditate with the sounds of nature. A true primitive camping experience awaits you. You can fish in the pond for your own dinner and gather eggs for breakfast. Try snacking on farm breads and biscuits with homemade jellies. Depending on the season, picking wild blackberries or some of the farm produce available gives a glimpse into the daily life of living at Creekside Farm. Our goal is to provide an unplugged experience for you to unwind and get back to nature so you can release the stress of everyday and enjoy the nature and serenity of our little farm. Inquire about homesteading classes and our bi annual homesteading festival. Classes are on Saturday mornings in January/February. The festival is a small but super packed event in the fall and spring each year. You can follow us on FaceBook for more details.

RV camping near New Orleans with campfires guide

From its jazz-filled French Quarter to its vibrant Mardi Gras along Bourbon Street, New Orleans brims with culture. However, Mother Nature also bestowed “The Big Easy” with natural attractions such as Kisatchie National Forest, Cypress Island Preserve, Jean Lafitte National Park, Honey Island Swamp, and Lake Fausse Pointe State Park. Hiking, birdwatching, boating, and fishing are just a few outdoor activities that are popular within these attractions. Then, tour the Mississippi River by river boat or sail out into the Gulf of Mexico for a day on the open water. Campers will find a wide range of cabin rentals, RV parks, and campgrounds among local wildlife within the national and state parks of the area. Many of the campsites feature convenient amenities like water and electric hookups, nearby restaurants, and on-site supply shops.

Where to Go

Jean Lafitte National History Park and Preserve

Named for a French pirate, Jean Lafitte National History Park and Preserve is a Mississippi River Delta attraction that features bayous, fields, and historical areas. Visit Chalmette Battlefield and National Cemetery to learn about the area’s past. Or explore popular park attractions like the Wetlands Acadian Cultural Center and Barataria Preserve to see alligators in their natural habitats. While there are no campgrounds and RV resorts within the park, many options are nearby that feature restrooms, electric and water hookups, and showers.

Honey Island Swamp

Honey Island is a 20-foot long island known as a fisherman’s paradise. The island’s waters teem with bluegill and flathead catfish. The swamp is also home to a wide array of animals, including alligators, cougars, and birds like bald eagles. Tours of the swamp are available for day trippers and most usually last two hours. For those who want to sleep near the swamp, there are also numerous campgrounds with basic amenities like restrooms, a free dump station, and fire pits nearby.

Lake Fausse Pointe State Park

Spread across 6,000 acres, Lake Fausse Pointe State Park is part of the Atchafalaya Basin. Popular park activities include fishing, canoeing, and hiking. There are three hiking trails within the park’s visitor center complex as well as a canoe trail that offers a water path among cypress trees. Wildlife watching opportunities attract many campers to the park to catch glimpses of alligators, blackbears, and white-tailed deer. Then glamp in one of two glamping tents on-site, or set up in a more rustic campsite that offers full hookups and waterfront views.

When to Go

October and November are popular months for visiting New Orleans. Temperatures range from the low 70s to low 80s. Campers who want to attend Mardi Gras can visit in February when it's more wet and temperatures dip down to the low 60s or high 50s. Summer temperatures soar into the 90s and are accompanied by high humidity. The hottest time of year in New Orleans is during July. Even so, the city features year-round camping, as many summer visitors like to boat and fish during the hot season.
