It is a parking lot, with hook-ups. They only charge $5, so I got two adjoining sites, so I could open all four slides. Right off the interstate (I-10), under the bridge, and only a 50 yard walk to the casino/restaurants/bathrooms of the old Isle of Capri Casino. Not camping and not luxury, but convenient and cheap! Security is provided, but watch driving the big rig in and out; could be tricky. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a bad experience. We had a confirmation number for our RESERVATION. Got to the rv park in plenty of time (1 hour before check-in time), but NO spot for us for the night. Somehow the reservation department OVERBOOKED their "8" spots. They were all full. It was like a Seinfeld episode. They know how to "TAKE" the reservation, they just don't know how to "HOLD" the reservation. The "HOLDING" of the reservation is the important part of the reservation itself. The hotel did give me a hotel room for free for the night, but that meant we had to deal with our pet and, clothes, food. Shame on them. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Staying at this Casino was a horrible experience and not recommended. We phoned ahead and reserved a spot for $12 and they only have 8 sites that are not numbered. " Just pull in to an empty one and come in and register ". I was just going to unhook in site 5 when a guy with a truck camper drove up said I was in his spot which he had for 2 weeks. No way of knowing. The sites are just part of their regular parking lot that have an electrical service. No sewer,water or dumping station. If they were busy it would be difficult to maneuver around parked cars to get into these very small parking lanes they call RV sites. To make maters worse, the staff entrance was right next to the RV area which had people coming and going all night, some talking as loud as their loud cars. Yes- It gets worse!! There is a large bridge over Lake Charles and the Casino sits under it. The traffic noise is awful, but drowned out by the railway line that runs trains all night. Not to be totally negative, you can use all the Casino's facilities such as pool,spa, and weight room- which are impressive. There were lots of signs along the highway for First Class RV resorts associated with Casinos. This is NOT one and is only an electrical outlet in a cramped parking lot in a poor location. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Fortunately we had read that it was OK to rent 2 spots which allowed us to fit in the space without sticking out into the driveway and allowed us to open our slides. These are really built for 5th wheels and trailers with the other vehicle parked in the next lane of auto parking. Otherwise the place was very nice. We as RV guests had the same privileges as hotel guests. These included a great pool with water slide, and a very comfortable hot tub. Also the sauna in both men's and women's showers was a great treat, along with the full compliment of fresh towels and toiletries. We had a lovely dinner at the steak house located within the hotel, not only great food, but the leftover's lasted for two more meals. Now, if the slots in the riverboats had just been loose.... there was no trash receptacles or recycling available to the R V sites. All in all, it's a great easy on easy off spot to spend a night or two. If the electric spots are full or you don't want to squeeze in, there was plenty of dry camping space. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is not on our list of "will visit again", for sure. There were some pros -- Full hookup, laundromat, convenience store. The cons were the fact that the place was filthy. The laundromat was so bad I wouldn't even go inside, and I didn't even BOTHER checking out the bathrooms. The employees inside the on-site store were also filthy --- dirty clothes, dirty hands, etc. YUCK! This place made a very poor impression, and I'd have to say it was the nastiest park we've ever been to! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a parking area for RV's at the L'auberge Du Lac Casino in Lake Charles. The sites are back-ins with concrete pads, surrounded by grass. They have electric and water hook-ups, but no sewer connection. A dump station is on site. We were passing through the area on Interstate 10 and found this to be a good overnight stop. The casino offers several restaurants and a buffet. There is also a nice pool area at the hotel. The casino is very nice. This is nothing fancy, but they have done a nice job of creating a decent RV parking area at a casino that is a step above boondocking. It was very quiet here and appeared to be very safe with security making the rounds through the area. We'll definitely stay here again when passing through the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Parkside is located approximately 1 mile from the entrance to Sam Houston Jones State park. They advertise restroom facilities, I guess you could call it an outhouse that has not been cleaned in months. They do not have sewer hookups, but some the the rv's there were just emptying there tanks on the ground or in the river!!! Also there employees are very rude and some are very DRUNK. The electrical hookups for the rv's works some of the time! I would not recommend anyone staying at this place. It is definitly not a family atmosphere! I recommend either Jean Laffite rv park or Sam Houston Jones State Park. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very nice park. The $9 fee is with the Golden Age Passport; otherwise $18 a night for a Premium site. HOWEVER, be aware that not all premium sites have sewer as implied on their website! I reserved a premium pull-thru (#24) and it did not have sewer. Only sites #1, #5 and #6 are pull-thru with sewer. 13 of the back-in sites have sewer but some of them might a bit tight to get into with a large rig due to trees. There is a dump station at each of the camping sections but much as I like this park, we may not stay as long as we had wished because I don't feel like going through the take-down, dump, set-up again routine. The campground loop road is 1.5 miles, perfect distance for bicycling or walking. They also have several trails through the woods that are marked and indicate distances along each one. Be sure to wear bug screen though as the deer flies do bite! Areas around the ponds are very noisy at night with frogs and other night critters singing their songs. Really neat. There is Wi-Fi for an additional one time fee of $3.00 and works great! We would most definitely stop here again but will make sure we get site #5 or #6! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Very nice park with very nice personnel. We received a 50% discount for having a Golden Age pass. Lots of deer roaming around, and a beautiful lake just a few yards away. The pull-through sites are somewhat odd; they're long, with one site being in front and the other directly behind. Seems to work OK. We had site #1 and there was a large fenced-in machine of some kind about 50 yards from us. I don't know what it's job was, but it ran most of the time and was kinda noisy but not too bad. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Good Sam discount. Campfires are allowed. Activities & facilities are to numerous to mention. Girls in office very nice. Roads were not the best and could use more gravel. All sites were gravel. This is a place to go if you have children. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The park was nice for the area but found the staff were not very happy to check us in. Found the price to be about 10.00 to much for an over night stay and not using any facility's. Sites were just OK. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
