Thanks J and A. I was so excited when I knew this campground had real aligators, plus that huge sculpture. I just knew I was going to have some fun with it.😁😆 We had tears in our eyes filming it. Thats what its all about, Live/Love/Laugh, and show off wonderful camping adventures too. Thanks again for watching our video J and A.

We are located near there in Butte La Rose. It isn't a state park but it's rich with history and weekend warriors. They have a big pavillion and events. It's called Cajun Heritage Rv park.Check events for the coming fall season. Their rabbit and deer cook off is an amazing and fun time sha!

We're gonna look it up. Who can pass up a good southern cook-off?😋😁 Thanks for watching our video ClairlovesJESUS. Mike and Angel

@@RetroRVRecon right?? And they do fais' do-do here! Aiyee!! Real cajun music.They have bands for the events. Cabins. Go carts and a store in front. Playgrounds and pool shower bathrooms and canoe rentals to go on the canal leading to Henderson lake. 15 mins from here is Crawfish Town USA and Karchners where the best boudin and cracklins are sold.

A helpful hint is to show each site instead of the road.

[@RetroRVRecon]

Hey Randy, thanks for watching our video. I understand completely, we try to capture as much of the campground as possible in one pass. For some campgrounds its easy to focus on one side and some campgrounds are a little more difficult. We try to be mindful that some folks are out there for the peace and quiet and a diesel truck driving around the area can be annoying. We're always trying to refine the videos to show the sites as best as we can without being a nuisance but in some cases it proves to be quite a challenge. For our next video we will definitely remember your helpful hint.👍👍 Thanks Alan for watching and thanks for the comment. Mike and Angel

wow, i live in slidell and never heard of this place. ,,thank you for all your videos. very informative and funny. GOD BLESS.

[@RetroRVRecon]

We are surprised at some of the campgrounds we find in Louisiana (or close to home) too. Like we mention in the video, its nice to see Louisiana offering some quality campgrounds. We enjoy being helpful and we like to have fun doing it. 😄 Thank you for watching them. ☺

@@RetroRVRecon you welcome

[@rvboondocker2559]

Hey, thanks for the video but when you show campsites, could you actually show the campsite rather than just the road? Thanks.

[@RetroRVRecon]

Hey Boondocker Since this video we try to show more of the campsites and less road. We also consider the privacy of those camping and make judgment calls. Thanks for watching our video, rvboondocker🙂 Mike and Angel

Hey guys just came across your channel. Just subscribed and looking forward your camping adventures. My husband and I just started a channel as well. We are tent campers and are looking forward to upgrading to an RV so we can really hit the road.

[@RetroRVRecon]

Awesome, thank you so much for stopping by. When we upgraded from a tent to a camper we wondered why we waited so long. 😄 Good luck with your channel, its so much fun for us. Thank you for subscribing too, Shanntirement! Happy Trails & Happy Camping🙂

[@user-gh8sl7iu3y]

Aside from New Orleans might you recommend the best state park to visit in Louisiana?

[@RetroRVRecon]

Hi 2021 In my opinion Lake Claiborne State Park or Lake D'Arbonne State Park are in the running for our top campground. However, all of the state parks we've been to offer something special. I don't think we could really choose one. We find its hard to go wrong at any of them. Thanks, 2021, for watching our video and for the question.😀 Happy Trails & Happy Camping Mike and Angel

[@louduhon]

All sites now have sewer hookups.

[@RetroRVRecon]

Hey Lou, thanks for letting us know. Its an excellent campground. Its even better now with "ALL" sites being full hook-ups. Thanks for the information and thanks for watching our video. Mike and Angel

[@bobgrabowski2232]

How are the sites, are they level or uneven. which site in your option is the best?

[@RetroRVRecon]

Hey Bob From what I can tell all of the sites are level and in good shape. I know 83 was level.👍 As far as the best site...When we go back I think we'll reserve site #66. It doesn't have a sewer connection but it's relatively large and out of the way. However, we feel like any site would be just fine. Thanks, Bob, for watching our video and we hope it helps you to find a nice spot.🙂 Happy Trails & Happy Camping, Bob! Mike and Angel
