Best camping cabins within 2 hours of Baton Rouge?

pntbllr228 · Nov 17, 2015

I am looking for a good place to take the old lady. Would like a cabin, ideally close to water so we could do some canoeing and maybe some fishing. Would also like some hiking trails if possible. Been looking around on the state park websites, but wanted to get a few personal opinions. Anyone have any?

Thanks for any help you can give me!

I have heard nice things about the cabins at Chicot State Park (near Ville Platte), although I have not been there myself. May want to check them out.

Palmetto State Park a couple miles south of Abbeville.

Also check out Lake Fausse Pointe state park. That would probably suit your needs. It's on the levee about 1 1/2 hours from Baton Rouge. http://www.crt.state.la.us/louisiana-state-parks/parks/lake-fausse-pointe-state-park/

Tickfaw state park in Springfield is very nice. Cabins are new and nice, and canoeing on the Tickfaw river is very scenic.

Percy Quin State Park, McComb, MS. We've rented cabins there multiple times for family activities. https://www.mdwfp.com/parks-destinations/ms-state-parks/percy-quin/lodging.aspx

Lake Fausse Point State Park in St. Martinville has cabins on the water with docks. Good fishing, canoe rentals, lots of canoe "trails" that lead to the lake, hiking trails. Very nice place, one of my fav LA State Parks!

We like Lake Fausse Point. Used to go to Percy Quinn but I'm not sure what the lake is like now.

Homochitto aka Clear Springs has some nice camping and a good trail system.

Up at Tunica Hills..others call it Clark Creek Natural Area just inside of MS up near Angola, the lady that owns the Pond Store has two cabins she rents out. You have donkey's ducks, and other rural critters roaming around where the pond and cabins are plus you have the Tunica Hills Trailhead 150 yards up the road.

You can find the Pond Store on Facebook and PM her about the cabins.

+1 for Chicot State Park.

We took a family trip there a few years ago. There is everything from primitive to nice cabins on the water with kitchen, shower, bunks, and big screen TVs.
