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.

genuinely cannot say enough nice things about this Hipcamp. Phanat could not have been a lovelier host — he even shared king cake with me, which felt so special and personal. The space itself was peaceful and thoughtfully cared for, but what really stood out was what he’s building for the community. It’s inspiring to see someone create something so intentional and welcoming. If you’re considering booking, don’t hesitate — jump on the opportunity. You’ll be so glad you did.

Great host(s)! Very helpful getting me set up and torn down. Shared info about the area I even learned a few helpful camping tips. I would recommend to anyone for a quick stop or a longer visit to check out the area.

Weekend Trip to Kickin' it in the Butte
Ginny and her husband were friendly and accommodating! We had one very small issue and they were proactive to take care of it. Showers were warm and the bed was comfy. I loved having access to a fire pit. Ginny has thought to stock the rv with anything you could possibly need!

We really enjoyed staying at Renee’s Galaxy. She made sure that we were parked just right for the best experience. We loved staring at the stars and moon. We also enjoyed watching so many different types of birds as well. Thank you Renee for a wonderful experience.

The host (Ginny) was awesome and had everything set to hook up our trailer with ease and no hassles.
We were just passing through on a trip cross country.
The stay was restful and comfortable.

If you are visiting the New Iberia area, this is a great place to stay. It is an urban farm with many innovations. In this garden, you can see intensive gardening methods, water collection systems and even bio gas production. So it’s not only a convenient place to stay. It’s a place to learn about unusual gardening techniques.

Thanks for allowing me to you use land to do some cold weather camping, I couldn’t find the camp ground initially but i contacted the owners and Mr Andy I believe his name was.. quickly found me and led me to the camp ground.. he showed me around and told me if I needed anything to let him know.. I picked a area tucked away in the woods.. it was dark and peaceful and plenty of fire wood was available for a awesome fire.. the only slight con is I was awoke out my sleep to some dogs barking I am assuming they were over the fence but they seemed pretty close.. all in all I will be back and I recommend this campground for primitive tent camping

What a great place to stay a day or more and enjoy the property. They grow green leaf veggies, herbs etc there and it is very well organized. The grounds keeper, Jen is delightful and a go getter.
The house is surrounded by flowers, shrubs etc and is beautiful.
Elect is limited to no more than 15 amps, the outlets are 20.
There is some mild local road traffic but very reasonable noise and quiet at night.
It is the best hipcamp we have stayed at.
We thank Phanat for offering his property for a stay in New Iberia.

A wonderful spot to crash and visit the various attractions nearby. The Tabasco Factory etc was great!
Traffic on the neighborhood road is not bad and the sound of the train, two time during the night was not very loud.
The Farm and grounds keeper, Jen is delightful and very helpful. She does the whole farm to Market with the produce.
Wish we lived closer so we could visit this quaint and great hide out.

We loved staying at Phanats garden, it is a beautiful respite from a largely industrial area. It was so lovely to check out the gardens and so many plants and beautiful brick buildings. I would say this hipcamp makes more sense if u have an rv or trailer, tent camping was okay but it did rain and the grounds flooded (which Phanat warned us would happen so no fault to them). We felt very safe and would stay again albiet maybe during a dryer season.

Wow this wonderful place is not only charming but has so much to do around it. Ginny & Scotty are the most wonderful hosts. Ginny has all information for you when you arrive about restaurants, local pubs, 100 yr old store that was a gem. They have a very level spot with a picnic table, Tiki torches and a very nice porch to sit and enjoy getting to know each other. We cant wait to come back.

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.
