This was as closest state park that was available near New Orleans. A beautiful setup, washrooms were clean, lots of wildlife including deer, boars, alligators and birds. Our site was a little more open than we like but we didn’t spent much time in the park. New Orleans was our destination of choice and you had to cross the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway to get there. Its only 24 miles long and for 8 miles in the middle you can not see land in any direction.
