Myers Landing

48 RV Sites, 5 Cabins

Myers Landing in Lake Arthur, LA, offers 48 full-hookup RV sites and 4 cabins, with 30 and 50-amp service and space for rigs up to 55 feet. Sites come as back-ins and pull-ins, all carrying water, sewer, and electric. The property is rated big rig friendly and includes a dump station, laundry, bathhouse with showers, and a general store for the supplies you forgot. Cabins give non-RV travelers and overflow guests a place to land. Pets are welcome. What sets the place apart is the water access: a boat ramp, a fishing pier, and frontage on both a lake and the river, with the property built around the fishing and hunting traffic of southwest Louisiana. There's also mini-golf, a playground, a pavilion, walking trails, and on-site dining, and propane fills are available without leaving the grounds. Guests come for the boating, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, birding, and stargazing. Lake Arthur sits in the coastal prairie of Jefferson Davis Parish, along the Mermentau River — a working landing that has served outdoor travelers since 1983. Rates for sites and cabins and current availability are on the booking page. Reserve ahead during fishing and waterfowl seasons, when the ramp stays busy.

One hundred eighty-four sites run in back-in, pull-thru, and premium pull-thru categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 98 feet, with picnic tables. Ninety-eight feet is exceptional capacity and accommodates the longest coaches with a tow — rare at a family camp-resort. Fourteen cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. A water park and splash pad anchor the summer, with an outdoor pool alongside. A lake and boat docks support boating and fishing, with mini-golf, a jumping pillow, gem mining, golf cart rentals, hiking, a pond, playground, pavilion, and picnicking filling the grounds. Live music runs through the season. Pets are welcome. Lake Charles sits on the Gulf Coast between New Orleans and Houston, where bayou country, casino culture, and the Sabine Pass industrial corridor produce a southwest Louisiana character distinct from the rest of the state's tourism geography. Contraband Days, the Creole Nature Trail, and the region's Cajun and Creole food scene are all close. Summer is the season for a family water resort, with mild winters drawing snowbirds crossing the I-10 corridor. Reserve well ahead for June through August and for festival weekends.

Sites come as regular back-ins and regular pull-thrus, each carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi. The 36-foot maximum keeps this to mid-size rigs. Laundry, a library, on-site dining, and a concierge are available — the last one is genuinely uncommon at an RV park and reflects the attached inn. Pets are welcome, and there's a playground. An outdoor pool, a pond for fishing, and planned activities fill the grounds, with the cottages giving groups a way to book together. Eunice sits in St. Landry Parish in the heart of the Cajun Prairie — the community that has most faithfully kept traditional Cajun French culture, Zydeco, and the Saturday morning live radio broadcast alive.

83 RV Sites, 12 Cottages, 1 Apartment

Sites come in a wide range — 30-amp and 50-amp back-ins, premium sites, premium sites with a pavilion, premium buddy sites for two rigs, and front southwest sites. All carry water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. The park is rated big rig friendly, and at 112 feet it will take rigs almost nothing else in Louisiana can. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, a snack bar, propane fills and exchange, golf cart rentals, and a barn cover the practical side. Rental units come with a starter set of paper goods; bring your own beyond that. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. A 13-acre fishing lake, a natural swimming pond with a sandy beach, a recreation center, a jumping pillow, gaga ball, sport courts, volleyball, horseshoes, a pavilion, a playground, live music, and planned activities fill 42 acres of Cajun Prairie.

Holly Beach RV Park

17 RV Sites

Holly Beach RV Park in Cameron, Louisiana, offers 17 full-hookup back-in RV sites 600 feet from the Gulf, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet. Premium and standard back-in categories join direct beach access on Louisiana's Cajun Riviera. Seventeen back-in sites run in standard and premium categories, both carrying water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 45 feet, with picnic tables. Two tiers keep booking simple, and every site sits within a short walk of the water. The amenity set is deliberately minimal — there is no pool, no clubhouse, and no programming, which keeps rates low and suits guests who came for the beach and the fishing rather than for a resort. The Gulf is the recreation, with swimming and boating from the property. Pets are welcome. Six hundred feet from the water is the entire proposition, and on this stretch of coast it is a genuinely rare position. Cameron Parish is remote and ecologically extraordinary — saltwater marsh, barrier beach, and the Creole Nature Trail's All-American Road running through some of the best birding country in North America. The spring migration fallouts here, when exhausted songbirds drop into the coastal chenier woods after crossing the Gulf, draw serious birders from around the world. Holly Beach is known locally as the Cajun Riviera, and the redfish and speckled trout fishing along the beach and in the surrounding marsh is excellent. Spring migration and summer beach season drive the heaviest demand, with fall fishing strong. Reserve ahead for warm-weather weekends and the April migration window.

Vinton RV Park

128 RV Sites

Vinton RV Park in Louisiana offers 128 full-hookup RV sites beneath mature oaks just off Interstate 10, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 68 feet. Premium covered concrete back-in sites join gravel pull-through and concrete back-in categories, with an outdoor pool and recreation center in Calcasieu Parish. One hundred twenty-eight sites span standard 50-amp gravel pull-through, premium 30/50-amp concrete back-in, and premium covered 30/50-amp concrete back-in categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, sized to 68 feet. The covered concrete sites are the standout — shade structures over a level concrete pad make a real difference through a Louisiana summer, and few parks at this price point offer them. A laundry, restrooms, showers, and a recreation center handle the practical side. The park is open 24/7 with office hours 9am to 5pm daily. An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with a recreation center for the rest. A casino is nearby. The oak canopy shades the grounds throughout, which is the property's defining physical character. Pets are welcome. Vinton sits on the I-10 corridor between Beaumont and Lake Charles, near the Texas border in southwestern Louisiana's crawfish and rice farming country — the gateway campground for anyone entering the state from the west. The park operates year-round with steady interstate traffic. Spring and fall deliver the most comfortable conditions, and Lake Charles festival weekends tighten availability. Reserve ahead for those.

One hundred twenty-two sites run in 30-amp, 50-amp, and 30/50-amp pull-through categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric, sized to 45 feet.

An outdoor pool and fitness center anchor the property, with a lake supporting fishing and swimming. Pickleball, basketball, horseshoes, sports courts, walking trails, a playground, and a dog park fill the grounds. Pets are welcome. Carencro sits in the Louisiana French cultural heartland just north of Lafayette, where Cajun food, zydeco music, crawfish culture, and the cypress swamp landscape of the Atchafalaya Basin define a regional identity unlike any other in the American South. Festival Acadiens, the Breaux Bridge Crawfish Festival, and the Lafayette music venues are all within reach. Spring festival season and the mild winter months draw the heaviest demand in Acadiana.

One hundred one back-in sites run in standard, premium, and Premium Plus categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 124 feet. One hundred twenty-four feet is exceptional capacity and accommodates anything on the road with room to spare — a real advantage in a region that draws large rigs on long work stays. A general store, laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Stop by the management office for the monthly newsletter; the resort runs two-hour fishing tournaments and wind-down Wednesdays for guests. A pond supports fishing and swimming, with canoeing, kayaking, and boating on the surrounding water. A community fire pit, playground, and dog park fill the grounds. Pets are welcome. Orange County sits in southeast Texas where the Sabine River delta, Sabine Lake, and the saltwater fishing of the Texas-Louisiana border zone create an outdoor environment defined by tidal marsh and productive waterway.

Breaux Bridge calls itself the Crawfish Capital of the World and has the festival, the restaurants, and the St. Martin Parish heritage to justify it. The park sits in the middle of the 1.4-million-acre Atchafalaya Basin — North America's largest river swamp, where cypress, Spanish moss, and blackwater bayou make the most distinctive natural landscape in the South. Swamp tours, Lake Martin's rookery, and the zydeco dance halls of Acadiana are all close, with Lafayette a short drive west. Spring crawfish season and the Breaux Bridge Crawfish Festival drive the sharpest demand, with the mild winter drawing snowbirds along the I-10 corridor.

Sites come in two categories — 30/50-amp with water and sewer, and covered 30/50-amp with water and sewer — in back-in and pull-thru layouts with site-delivered WiFi.

Port Bolivar sits on the Bolivar Peninsula, the 27-mile barrier strip in Galveston County that runs east from Galveston Island across the mouth of the bay, reached by the free Bolivar Ferry.
