We stayed here four nights. It was about a 30 minute drive to the French Quarter. The staff gave great tips on what to see, restaurants, and directions to get there. The campground provided a free shuttle to the French Quarter. It was worth taking one time just for the drivers wonderful narration of the sights along the way and a residents view of Katrina. The shuttle left the campground at 9:00 AM and returned to pick you up at 5:45. The sites were cement and some had patio furniture and swings. Although they lost some trees during Katrina there was lots of shade.
We had a wonderful three night stay here. The park was clean and well patrolled by the park personnel. The sites were paved and grouped in pairs. You were very close to your neighbor on one side, but had lots of room with a nice covered picnic area on the other side. There were two park hosts here but, they were not to be seen. The beach was a 5 to 10 minute walk from the camp sites. We really enjoyed the beach. It was nearly deserted with just a few walkers and people fishing. The sand was very hard and you could easily drive a car ( 4 wheel drive was not needed) on it in designated locations. The rest rooms were closed one day for repair. The dump station was in good repair and had plenty of water available. We will stay here again.
We stayed overnight on our way to El Paso with friends. We had a very quiet night rest. There was lots of room to walk our pets. The staff was very friendly and helpful. My friend had problems retracting his levelers. One of the staff worked with him for an hour to diagnose the problem and retract the levelers. They have a nice cafe on site and miniature golf and pool for the kids. Although this is an older park it has been well maintained.
