Once a main railway for lumber in Hancock County, this 24-acre property along Bayou LaTerre, acquired in 2010, is home to a small variety of animals, edible landscaping including multiple varieties of fruit trees and seasonal 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 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.
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.

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

Overall, the experience was delightful. I was able to pull my little camper right next to the pond and enjoy the serene view over the landscape. I enjoyed fishing in the pond and caught multiple nice size bass and a catfish, and relaxing. My son enjoyed riding his bike on the path around the pond, playing on the playset, and feeding the alpacas. Had a great time, the host was excellent, and would definitely visit again.

I love this camp site ! It’s nice and secluded and the homestead is a lot of fun for the kids and everyone.
The sites are large and the people who live onsite are kind and helpful. I go here several times a year and will always be back.
Thanks for such a lovely stay.

My camp site was very quiet. It was a great site to rest and recoup for a week so I can continue the rest of my journey. Alicia and CJ were very helpful and checked in on me. One purk is they now have a flush toilet which was advertised as compose toilet. 😁

We had a magnificent stay! We booked at the very last second because our previous reservation fell through suddenly - and it was a blessing in disguise!
This property is so big and full of adventures and projects to look at. Special shout-out to the fishing pond!! My friends and I barely know anything about fishing and we discovered a lifelong hobby!!!
The hosts were also incredibly kind & patient & generous with their time/care. From the moment we arrived it felt warm & comfortable.
Also the farm dogs are so so so so lovable. We actually miss them - Mo will play fetch for hours and bring you cool trinkets ❤️

We arrived Friday & had a fun time till we left Sunday. The property, the pond, & Ms. Erica were great. Ms. Erica even helped us out with some extra sleeping bags when the night time temps dropped lower than expected. From fishing in the pond to seeing all the animals, our grand-kids enjoyed & learned a lot on the farm setting. We’ll certainly add it to our “let’s go back” list!

Such a great time! Alicia was a great host. Her husband CJ was friendly from the start and answered our questions. Lovely campground area. Sites are far away enough to feel private but close enough if we needed anything. Bathroom is convenient. Quiet and peaceful, we didn’t mind the early rooster crow and it’s probably not heard unless you’re closer to the animals. We didn’t want to leave. Looking forward to next time! :)

Absolute perfection! Tremendous hospitality, gorgeous sites, quiet (besides the occasional rooster), it’s a secret paradise. My wife, my six-year-old, and myself camped for two nights, hiked up the beautiful stream, played with the dogs, gazed at the stars, and just took it easy. The people that live there are tremendous company, and we will certainly be back. Everything is clean and everyone was considerate and fun. Bathroom and kitchen worked great. Highest possible recommendation, but don’t tell anybody ha ha

This place is AMAZING! My boyfriend took me and our daughter (we had never been camping before) here. And oh my goodness! The views are beautiful, the hosts are very nice, sincere, and helpful people. There's an amazing swim hole in the river. Their very sweet dog, Moe, was our tour guide down the river and played fetch the entire time. It was so sweet and fun. I cant recommend this place enough, and I honestly cant wait to go back!

Took the kids for their first away from home camping trip. Left momma home so she could have a little break, haha.
Everyone had a blast. The kids loved the creek and walking down to the swimming hole. They really enjoyed exploring the land too. Wear swim shoes as the clay gets very slick when wet!
Loved the outdoor shower, with my only complaint is that I wish it was a little tidier and cleaner. It is an outdoor shower though, so I get it! I really enjoyed the camping areas. They were very large and felt secluded.
It was a great experience and would definitely take the kids back again!

Farm stays near New Orleans guide
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.
