Pelican Park of New Orleans

Pelican RV Park New Orleans is a well-maintained, family operated, multi-acre site for RVs, 5th wheels, travel trailers and other campers. Fairly well priced and well managed by a Father and Son team, that's as nice as can be. Smileys Restaurant and Bar is attached and serves strong drinks and amazing food at a great price. Conveniently close to the French quarter. Highly recommend if your trying to enjoy New Orleans. - 5 Star Guest Review

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.

This was such a great spot to camp. My tent location was right next to the water which was beautiful to wake up next to. Damon was proactive in sending me directions and notes for everything I would need during my stay.

I would most definitely recommend Damon's land for camping! It was peaceful and quiet but not too far from town. As a solo female camper, I felt safe. Having access to the RV (which could have been a little cleaner, but was not the worst public bathroom I've seen!) with a flush toilet, hot running water, and shower was a game changer for my trip ~ I had planned to split my 2 week vacation between camping and hostels, but decided to camp the whole time! I will camp on Damon's land again the next time I am in Louisiana!

Damon was great to chat to and I had an awesome stay. If you want to chill out, do some fishing and get away from it all then this is ideal- great value too!

I would definitely recommend this spot to others! It's peaceful & quiet. Beautiful area right on the river. Having access to the RV with hot running water, a shower & flush toilet was a game changer! I had planned to split my trip from Maine between car camping & staying at a hostel, but decided to stay on Damon's land for my whole vacation.

This campsite is beautiful. The host, Damon, is a wonderful guy. He does live on-site which wasn't an issue, in fact, I felt safer knowing he was around. The upkeep on the property is well done. Damon allowed us to move sites when we realized we weren't getting as much shade as we wanted in the peak of the day. Our dogs had plenty of room the explore and run. My husband and I were so impressed that we extended our stay.
Other notes: This property isn't super remote. Yes there are neighbors and traffic but nothing remotely as bad as a hotel by the interstate or even a KOA.

Very tranquil and beautiful spot in nature. Just what the doctor order after packing it out of New Orleans enroute to Denver. Damon is super helpful and will accommodate you. He moved me in closer and mowed grass before I moved over too. Definitely would return!

We really enjoyed our two nights at Damon’s camp site. It was so quiet and peaceful, exactly what we needed. Upon arrival, Damon provided the electric cord and it was easy to get hooked up. Water hose was near by, the shower and flush toilet, located in an older trailer was much appreciated.

Amazing and beautiful. Easy to access and feels safe. The night time was perfect despite rain. The host was easy to contact and we didn’t see him much at all so the sense of privacy was amazing. Overall we loved it and will be back

We had a lovely stay on Damon's land, by the lake and enjoyed a fire. We did not see Damon and could not open his message to us, but the place was easy to find and we figured things out.
