We called to book a reservation, and the representative reserved our spot, we offered to pay over the phone. They told us to wait until we arrived, and we even said, are you holding our spot they said yes, after five hours of driving, they sold our spot.

This is a beautiful state, park and campground. Everything looks like new, including the roads. Large full hook up sites with large concrete pads nice walking trails and boardwalks and an easy place to launch kayaks into the river which wraps around the park. If you like casinos, two huge ones are about 14 miles away.

We phoned the office around 4pm inquiring about availability and arriving later in the evening. The woman was incredibly helpful giving us gate code information for if we arrived after 8pm.
All of the spaces were concrete and ours was level. Great hookups!
We’d stay here again for sure!

I grew up going to Sam Houston, so I’ve seen the part over the last 45 years change, but stay the same fantastic park. After hurricane Laura destroyed over 90% of the trees and all of the facilities and trails, they had to rebuild the park and it just reopened after two years.
The facilities are fantastic. All of the RV sites have full hook ups and excellent concrete pads with brand new picnic tables, barbecue pits, and fire rings. Our site was slightly unlevel, but I believe that is on purpose because it allows the rain to run off the concrete. Like I said, 90% of the trees were destroyed, so the RV area, which used to be heavily wooded, has no trees. And they’re waiting for the grass to regrow so there’s quite a bit of dirt and mud around the RV sites. But, they did put in fresh sod immediately surrounding the sites so that you will be able to walk on grass around your pad.
The bathrooms are brand new and all of the trails have been re-opened.
If you don’t mind a back inside, I would recommend one of the sites at the very back of the RV park because those push up against a beautiful cypress swamp with some neat little Glamping tents.
The park was very quiet and everyone was very friendly. It’s a great spot for hiking, mountain biking, fishing, kayaking, and taking your boat out on the river. It’s truly at Louisiana gem,

Paid to stay at this campground for 2 nights and when I got here it was closed. Apparently they aren’t reopening until 2022.

We stayed here for 3 nights in Aug 2020. Hot, hot, hot but shady campsites.
The trail system is awesome for running, hiking and biking. The park is well maintained. Staff very helpful and friendly. Laundry facilities ($1.75 per machine) and the bathrooms were clean.
The campground area is quite small and at the weekend was pretty much full. The spots in the middle looked quite close together but the ones on the edges were better spaced.
We stayed in #35 which was great and quite private but I have my eye on # 33 next time!
We only paid $12.50 per night as we have a NPS card.

Lots of rain and interior sites flooded. Our site was very uneven, but doable. Lots of places to walk the dogs. Set up for lots of day picnicking. We would stay again if passing through the Lake Charles area, but wouldn’t make it a destination. Bathrooms were very nice and free laundry.
