Note: The turn onto Herbert Ortego Road is a hard turn back to the right. Go slow, turn wide, and take your time. The Galaxy is a small campground with 8 large spots. It's located outside of Washington, Louisiana where there are no city lights and lots of stars and things in the sky. There is 50-amp electricity with full hook-ups at each site. I have a laundry service and a small dog park. Short term and long term are welcomed. The sunrises and sunsets are exceptional here. I have a picnic table and fire pit available for your use. We look forward to seeing you soon!

🌿 Raw Waterfront Escape: Off-Grid at Boggy Bayou
Boggy Bayou Road | Marksville, LA
Ditch the crowded RV parks and the humming generators. This is true Louisiana waterfront camping for those who prefer the sound of lapping waves over the sound of neighbors. Located on a pristine, undeveloped lot, this site offers a rare "blank canvas" experience for the self-contained explorer.
🌲 The Setup
We’ve kept it simple so the landscape can do the talking. You won’t find concrete pads or glowing streetlights here—just the earth under your tires and the cypress trees above your head.
- The Vibe: A flat, cleared area perfect for one camper, van, or rugged truck rig.
- The Perks: A heavy-duty fire pit for starlit cookouts and a picnic table for your morning coffee with a view.
- Water Access: Direct, private access to the bayou for paddling or fishing.
🛶 Bonus Gear & Fishing
We’ve stocked the site with a few extras to help you embrace the "Bayou Life":
- On-Site Canoe: One aluminum canoe is ready for launch.
- Safety Gear: Includes 2 paddles and 3 life vests.
- Angler’s Dream: Bring your fishing sticks and worms! The direct waterfront access makes it easy to go from your morning coffee to your first cast in seconds.
🔇 "Breezy" Quiet Hours
This is a beautiful area with a wonderful natural soundscape. To protect that peace, we ask for Quiet Hours starting at 10 PM. Let the campfire crackle and the bullfrogs sing. If you're playing music during the day, keep it "breezy"—enough for your camp to enjoy, but not enough to disturb the natural peace of the bayou.
🚛 Parking & Ground Care
The closer you get to the water, the more "Boggy" the Bayou can get! To keep the land pristine:
- Heavy Vehicles: Please park any extra guest vehicles or heavy support trucks near the road on the firmer ground.
- The Camper: You are welcome to maneuver your primary rig/camper closer to the waterfront for those front-row views.
- Tread Lightly: If the ground is soft from rain, please stick to the higher ground to avoid creating deep ruts or getting stuck.

A gem of a little campsite.... I pulled in after dark and was led by hosts to a lighted pathway leading to a bridge over a small coulée... Had the entire site to myself.... a wooded copse full of fireflies and owls...
Negatives would be of course the inevitable and ever-present mosquitoes found in wooded damp areas of south Louisiana... were not however overwhelming... Of more concern were the fire ants.... These South American fire ants are well established in south Louisiana ... there were several treated hills that had been killed but more had come about since this treatment and I mentioned this to the hosts.
I stayed Friday Saturday and Sunday night... I was surprised at the amount of vehicular traffic in the area including four-wheeling kids.... But things definitely calmed down as the night progressed.
Ali will mention the GPS directions are somewhat flawed depending on the direction you take ...Probably a good idea to talk to Ali to get the fine visual points of where to turn.
Overall this was a very nice experience.... very kind and gracious hosts and prices significantly better than some of the surrounding choices for hip camping

Our stay at De' Thibodeaux was great. The forest surrounding our camp felt private and secluded. The open grass fields between the campsites created an open air atmosphere. At night, you could hear a symphony of crickets and owls. The lighted bridge across the canal into the trail felt magical. My only drawback was that I brought too much gear. I was not prepared for the amount of walking it would take to get from the campsite, back to the vehicle. Otherwise, it was an amazing area.And a lot of culture and sites to be seen in surrounding areas.

This was a beautiful location and great introduction to Louisiana terrain for a family who had never been :) Our stay got cut short due to some environmental influences (some heavy rain and brown recluses within the tent). Would have loved to stay if we prepped better and didn't have a young child with. Only complaint, is parking is described on site, I would say its better stated as on property, as this is not a drive up to your site and unload kind of experience. If we would have known, we would have packed much lighter. Regardless, a beautiful spot, accommodating host, and lots of wildlife to be heard at night!

Renee is a super host! Southern hospitality at its finest! Thoroughly enjoyed meeting her and staying at her property! She let me borrow an adapter and a tarp for my RV. Very quiet and bucolic few acres. I needed propane refill and Renee set me up with a local friend to get some after 2 tries at Uhaul where no one was available to pump. She invited me out for a beer and for a dip in her pool. Would definitely return! Would love to get to know her better!❤️

So peaceful. The spaces are wide and far enough apart to allow a little privacy. Our site was more than long enough for the truck and 5th wheel. Just FYI, all of the connections are at the back of the site, so make sure you have long hoses if your water and sewer are mid-rig like ours. Nicely treed and far enough off the road that you don't hear the road noise.
