This is a fish camp and popular during the weekends. For campers, there is no charge to fish. Non-campers pay $10.00 per person per day. In addition to RV sites, there are 6 cabins priced from $100-$200 per night. Most of the sites surround the large fishing pond. There are only a couple of pull-thru sites. Regular rates are $30/night. Good Sam and Passport America rates are available. There is a $5.00 per day charge if you bring your own golf cart. The road and most of the sites are gravel. If the winds are blowing, it can be dusty. Verizon connection is good. Site #73, with front and back water views, did not support our big rig so we moved to a paved site. One of the jacks sank so deep we had trouble raising it. The staff is friendly and supportive. The campground also owns a smokehouse restaurant (about 2.5 miles away) that serves great lunches. For fresh, hot beignets, go to Corner Bar Poor-Boys (337.332.0078), built in 1897. I would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Rate is for Passport America. As the sewer is located at the far rear of the campsites, you need a very long sewer hose. Sites have recently been paved. Had trouble with electrical box which was quickly repaired. This is no frills, but well located for visiting the area, and because of it's rural location, it is very quiet. Glad they had laundry. Follow directions in campground guides not GPS. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We stayed overnight with Passport America, $12.50. The grounds were incredibly clean, grass mowed, quiet and peaceful, lots of wading birds. Pleasant folks in the office. Difficult route to park, but directions and map in Passport America book were concise and easily followed. Would love to stay again when we have more time. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Good size park on a fishing pond. Roads from I-10 to park are not very good. All roads and sites are some what level and roads are good with some dust. Hookup's are set back to far and you need to back off gravel to get to them. Sites are more or less gravel with grass. WiFi worked OK at $4.00 per day. We were on Passport America at $12.50 per night. Free fishing in "10" or "11" acre lake, no fishing licence required. Some sites have only 50 amps on post and newer sites have 20/30/50 amps post. No tables only fire rings on grounds. Bathrooms and showers open from 9:00 am to 9:00 pm and only at the pool in front of park. Long walk from rear of park to the front for bathrooms. Play ground equipment for the kids. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We enjoyed our stay immensely! Yes, it rained, yes it was muddy, but what a fascinating and unique family-owned place! The 90 some-odd full-hookup sites are spaces surround two large (10 & 12 acres) well-stocked fishing ponds and the entire camp is surrounded by wooded areas, bayous and swamp. Fishing is free and no state license is required, three types of bait as well as a remarkable assortment of fishing gear is sold at the office. The well-spaced gravel sites and road are surrounded by lawn. We were parked in site #1 and in spite of the recent, heavy rain we were able to find enough level terra-firma to park on (with the help of flat wooden planks under our wheels). All of the sites back up to the ponds – there are wonderful views and occasional bird antics. This is a very rural locale – in the bayou country of Acadiana. The friendly owner and staff will happily direct you to the best of this and that in the area – as well as suggest the best site for your unit. The web sites directions are clear and accurate and there is nice signage along the way – keep going, it takes a while to get there. There is a wonderfully inviting large common-room complete with rock fireplace, wooden rockers, upholstered furnishings, tables & chairs, a large kitchen and a lakeside screened-in porch. There is a smaller community room on the far end of the park and a small chapel-like building between the two loops. The pool was closed during our visit (January). The laundry is clean with adequate facilities for the small park. There is no public phone, but the owner offered us her cell phone any time we needed. The park accepts mail for campers and the office-store is stocked with assorted basics & Cajun treats. There is varied nearby shopping; Walmart, Home Depot, Lowes and full retail mall are all within 20 miles. WiFi, provided by Tengo, is excellent and available for different rates. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We were very happy with our overnight stay. Very friendly staff. One complaint is the restrooms were locked after the pool closed. Another restroom would be nice. Highly recommend, caught alot of fish. Overall a wonderful time.. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
We enjoyed our stay at Poche's. It is kind of out of the way when coming off of I-20 or I-49 with two lane access roads to the campground. The main campground road to and within the park is gravel. Lots of good places to eat in Breaux Bridge, Carrencro, and Lafayette. Will go back if in the area again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stayed here this past week for four days. The owners were very nice. It rained saturday but the water ran off and it was not sloppy. We caught a few fish. We will go back again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
The owners of this campground are extremely nice. We stayed here for Hurricane Katrina for 2 weeks. The owners made every effort to accomodate us in our time of need. They treated us like family. Overall the campground is extremely clean and the cabins are gorgeous. My parents stayed in a cabin while we were there. Cabins are very roomy and the way they are decorated makes you feel at home. We plan on camping there again soon, the only thing that stops us from camping more often is the drive. It is located 3 and a 1/2 hours from my house. This campground rates a 20 on my scale. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Real nice park situated oround a large fishing pond. Several other fishing ponds on the grounds. Fishing is free for campers and a state lisence isn't required. We came for a week and stayed for 2 1/2 weeks. Park is family operated and are on site 24/7. Real nice people. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
