Camp'd out on Lake Bistineau

Come enjoy beautiful Lake Bistineau!  We are located in a cove with access to the main channel.  We have a boat launch on the property for guests to use.  The dock is off limits, but you are welcome to fish from the shoreline or bring your own boat/kayak/canoe to launch from our boat launch. From about end of July - February, they drain the lake and you will not be able to launch a boat with a vehicle.  You can still get access to the water with a canoe or kayak by walking but the boat launch will not be usable.  Lake Bistineau has a Salvania problem, so during March - June, the water is usually pretty clear, good for fishing, swimming and boating.  Mid-June and July, there could be enough salvania to make fishing by the shore and swimming not good.  During this time, we recommend you have some way to reach deeper water by boat/canoe/kayak/pirouge to enjoy better fishing and swimming.  You will see examples of the salvania in the picutres posted.

Payne Lane Farms & Campground

Less than two (2) miles off Interstate 20, just behind "Salvation's Cross" in Rayville, LA...

Our home was built by Mr. J. L. and Mrs. Gladys Keys in the 1970's. Mrs. Gladys used to work for my Grandmother at the local ladies dress shop. She and her husband often brought us fresh vegetables they raised on their "little piece of heaven." They had no children and all these years later, their idea of heaven became ours to take care of now. We are so blessed here at Payne Lane Farms.

You can safely camp in your travel trailer minutes off of I-20 on our wooded, rural lot minutes from town, convenience stores, food, and even dump stations.

The front orchard provides a refuge of shade and privacy while also allowing you to see everything around you. Rayville, Louisiana has great history and heritage and some fun artifacts to explore if you have an adventurous spirit. Good people and family owned businesses if services are needed while enroute-traveling.

Welcome!
