Spent my first weekend at this old established campground. Was placed toward the rear of the park so that I could have (Tengo) wifi Internet access, averaged 11 mbps my entire stay. They offer sewer for an additional fee but have a dump station available. This is definitely a place for families especially those with young children. They offer a water slide and miniature golf for an extra (reasonable) fee. The pool area has a smaller children's wading pool in addition to a normal pool. Saturday offered bingo in the afternoon and Karaoke in the evening. There is a small creek running behind the campground that offers white sandy beaches, the average depth during my stay was 6 - 12". The place was overrun with Golf Carts, they have them available for rent through an outside vendor but, you must order it in advance. Considering how deep the campground goes it definitely is something to consider. I was at least a 1/2 mile from the pool/office area. I ended up driving to/from the pool. I would definitely consider staying there again, it is off the beaten path and 45 miles from downtown New Orleans. Crossing the Lake Ponchartrain Causeway Bridge back to New Orleans I was charged $12.00 toll. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Old Park that needs up dating some sights have sewer but wont hold content of trailer holding tank, the roads was gravel and had wholes in road, they need to haul in gravel and grade them. The sights were muddy and had no area to park except in the grass and mud. The permanent sights was run down and dumpy looking. The staff was nice, this could be a nice camp ground with some up grading and clean up. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
I don't know if its because of the hurricane last year, or if its just normally bad. But this place was terrible. We had a dumpy site, and the sewer connection did not work. It overflowed on to the ground. The laundry room is to small and very hot to use. this place has a lot of potential, but needs lots of work. Lots of permanent people here living in trailers older than Henry Ford. There was clearly a lot of damage from the storm, you can still see destroyed trailers here. It was very hard to find off the interstate. If it was night you may as well forget it. Its 11 miles off the beaten path. Perhaps in another year it will have changed and improved. But I don't plan on going back to see. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We liked this place although there were a few problems. Lots of soft spots which would be a problem in wet weather (sites are basically just on the grass). Bathhouses were located by the seasonals, none by the overnight section! Bathhouses were OK, basically clean, but could use some serious updating. Great activities, pretty location on a small river with sandy banks. Rentals were very iffy looking- not sure I'd want to rent an old run-down school bus or old popup! Seasonals were a mixed bag, some in good repair, many needed to clean up their place. Would go back just for the activities and nice location alone. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
