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.

The Yoga Barn is a great camping site! The provided firewood and fire pit were lovely. The composting toilet and heated shower were pleasant surprises, very well-maintained and provisioned.
Arrival directions were a bit tricky arriving in the dark but we were able to figure it out.

The yoga barn camping site was perfect for me. I was traveling through, camping in my car with my dog, and we just needed a quiet, grassy, peaceful, dark at night, place to stay where we didn't have to listen to people's TVs or music in their RVs or their generators. I loved it at Jan's place and highly recommend it if you love peace and quiet with your camping!!

It is a great spot with beautiful scenery. It also has a little play area for kids to run around and play. It is a great spot on the bayou.

Very nice place. Read his instructions,
I thought I did, but not good enough.
But if I can figure it out anyone can.
I had no connection to the outside world.
It was amazing. You can use satellites if you really have to.

Loved the peaceful and beautiful land we camped on at Jan’s! I was fortunate enough to catch a yoga class which was refreshing and fun. We went to Lincoln preserve to hike but got caught in the pouring rain. I would recommend this camp site.

Overview
About
As far as Louisiana state parks go, this one packs in the natural beauty. There's a sandy beach for relaxing and a picturesque lake for water activities. Six serene nature trails let you enjoy the surroundings. Park guides offer hiking tours and present nature-based programs for entertainment.
Pull your RV into one of the 87 campsites, each with water and electrical hookups. Try roughing it with a stay at the primitive camping area. There are 10 deluxe cabins available for rent if you're more akin to glamping. Park facilities, including a pavilion and meeting room, require reservations and a daily fee.
Try your hand at disc golf at one of the two 18-basket courses. The park also offers excellent spots for avid bird-watchers to explore. Boat rentals are available, whether you prefer a kayak, canoe or flat bottom boat. Golf carts are permitted on the property but require an additional fee.
Notable campgrounds
- Whispering Pines Campground: A serene spot surrounded by towering pines, ideal for reconnecting with nature.
- Lakeview Campground: Offers breathtaking views of the lake, perfect for sunrise and sunset watchers.
- Big Creek Campground: A favorite for anglers and boaters, with easy access to the water.
Tips for snagging a campsite
- Book early, especially for peak seasons, to ensure your spot at this popular park.
- Consider mid-week stays for better availability and a quieter camping experience.
- Keep an eye on cancellation policies for last-minute openings.
- Explore nearby camping options to maximize your chances of securing a reservation.
When to go
The best time to visit Lake Claiborne State Park is during the spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural beauty is at its peak. Summer brings more visitors and higher temperatures, while winter can be less crowded but cooler.
Know before you go
- Check the weather forecast and pack accordingly to ensure a comfortable visit.
- Be aware of park hours, typically from 8:30am to 5pm, and plan your activities within this timeframe.
- Remember to bring insect repellent and sunscreen for protection during your outdoor adventures.
- Stay informed about any trail closures or area restrictions that may be in effect during your visit.
- Facilities such as restrooms and picnic areas are available, but it's wise to bring extra supplies just in case.
