It is a parking lot, with hook-ups. They only charge $5, so I got two adjoining sites, so I could open all four slides. Right off the interstate (I-10), under the bridge, and only a 50 yard walk to the casino/restaurants/bathrooms of the old Isle of Capri Casino. Not camping and not luxury, but convenient and cheap! Security is provided, but watch driving the big rig in and out; could be tricky. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We had reservations two days prior to the arrival date, I expressed to the person on the phone about the reviews they had received regarding the reservation problems. She stated that was a problem but it was all resolved. I had business within walking distance to this place. Upon arrival guess what? NO SPACE was available. They double and triple booked. There is not much more I can say about it without getting upset. As a traveler we depend on people doing their jobs correctly. We ended up dry camping in a Home Depot Parking Lot. Thanks Isle of Capri!!! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a bad experience. We had a confirmation number for our RESERVATION. Got to the rv park in plenty of time (1 hour before check-in time), but NO spot for us for the night. Somehow the reservation department OVERBOOKED their "8" spots. They were all full. It was like a Seinfeld episode. They know how to "TAKE" the reservation, they just don't know how to "HOLD" the reservation. The "HOLDING" of the reservation is the important part of the reservation itself. The hotel did give me a hotel room for free for the night, but that meant we had to deal with our pet and, clothes, food. Shame on them. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Staying at this Casino was a horrible experience and not recommended. We phoned ahead and reserved a spot for $12 and they only have 8 sites that are not numbered. " Just pull in to an empty one and come in and register ". I was just going to unhook in site 5 when a guy with a truck camper drove up said I was in his spot which he had for 2 weeks. No way of knowing. The sites are just part of their regular parking lot that have an electrical service. No sewer,water or dumping station. If they were busy it would be difficult to maneuver around parked cars to get into these very small parking lanes they call RV sites. To make maters worse, the staff entrance was right next to the RV area which had people coming and going all night, some talking as loud as their loud cars. Yes- It gets worse!! There is a large bridge over Lake Charles and the Casino sits under it. The traffic noise is awful, but drowned out by the railway line that runs trains all night. Not to be totally negative, you can use all the Casino's facilities such as pool,spa, and weight room- which are impressive. There were lots of signs along the highway for First Class RV resorts associated with Casinos. This is NOT one and is only an electrical outlet in a cramped parking lot in a poor location. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is not on our list of "will visit again", for sure. There were some pros -- Full hookup, laundromat, convenience store. The cons were the fact that the place was filthy. The laundromat was so bad I wouldn't even go inside, and I didn't even BOTHER checking out the bathrooms. The employees inside the on-site store were also filthy --- dirty clothes, dirty hands, etc. YUCK! This place made a very poor impression, and I'd have to say it was the nastiest park we've ever been to! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a parking area for RV's at the L'auberge Du Lac Casino in Lake Charles. The sites are back-ins with concrete pads, surrounded by grass. They have electric and water hook-ups, but no sewer connection. A dump station is on site. We were passing through the area on Interstate 10 and found this to be a good overnight stop. The casino offers several restaurants and a buffet. There is also a nice pool area at the hotel. The casino is very nice. This is nothing fancy, but they have done a nice job of creating a decent RV parking area at a casino that is a step above boondocking. It was very quiet here and appeared to be very safe with security making the rounds through the area. We'll definitely stay here again when passing through the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Parkside is located approximately 1 mile from the entrance to Sam Houston Jones State park. They advertise restroom facilities, I guess you could call it an outhouse that has not been cleaned in months. They do not have sewer hookups, but some the the rv's there were just emptying there tanks on the ground or in the river!!! Also there employees are very rude and some are very DRUNK. The electrical hookups for the rv's works some of the time! I would not recommend anyone staying at this place. It is definitly not a family atmosphere! I recommend either Jean Laffite rv park or Sam Houston Jones State Park. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

What a beautiful park! Friendly and helpful staff in a unique setting: a combination of river and cypress swamp. It rained while we were here, but the site drained very well, and it proved to be no problem. It is quiet at night, well away from highway noise. The huge trees could pose a problem for opening slide-outs on some rigs; I would check my site carefully before reserving it. The amenities of Lake Charles are nearby. Signage makes it easy to get to from I-10. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We enjoyed our stay at this park. The employees at the park were very helpful. From I-10, the park is easy to find by following the signs. The only negative to the park are the trees surrounding our campsite. They made it impossible to open some of the bay doors. We also could not use our awning due to these trees. Direct TV satellite will not work due to the trees. The W-Fi in the park was very easy to access and reliable. We stayed in site number 42. We used our Golden Age Senior Pass and received a 50% discount off the regular rate of $18 per night. Wildlife in the park is very tame: numerous deer, squirrels and raccoons. There is a dedicated wildlife area where the wildlife congregate daily; however, they are seen through out the park. There is a Wal-Mart approximately 6 miles from the park. There is a small convenience store less then a mile from the park. We ate at Hollier's Cajun Kitchen in Sulphur, Louisiana. If in the area, we would stay at this park again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice park. The $9 fee is with the Golden Age Passport; otherwise $18 a night for a Premium site. HOWEVER, be aware that not all premium sites have sewer as implied on their website! I reserved a premium pull-thru (#24) and it did not have sewer. Only sites #1, #5 and #6 are pull-thru with sewer. 13 of the back-in sites have sewer but some of them might a bit tight to get into with a large rig due to trees. There is a dump station at each of the camping sections but much as I like this park, we may not stay as long as we had wished because I don't feel like going through the take-down, dump, set-up again routine. The campground loop road is 1.5 miles, perfect distance for bicycling or walking. They also have several trails through the woods that are marked and indicate distances along each one. Be sure to wear bug screen though as the deer flies do bite! Areas around the ponds are very noisy at night with frogs and other night critters singing their songs. Really neat. There is Wi-Fi for an additional one time fee of $3.00 and works great! We would most definitely stop here again but will make sure we get site #5 or #6! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

If you’re arriving at night, watch carefully for the entrance, we passed it by 30 feet and had to back up. Very peaceful. Gravel/grass sites with picnic table. Site was long enough for our rig but the sewer hose would not reach. Very weak AT&T connection. No Wi-Fi. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I am glad we didn't pay much attention to the hateful reviews, some goofy people write. The wife and I stayed in this campground for a week. It is a beautiful place. The grounds are well manicured. The bathrooms, though a little far from the camping area, are kept extremely clean, and smell great. The staff is very friendly and helpful. This is a real campground, very rustic, and quite peaceful. The sites are very wide and can accommodate the largest RV with a pull vehicle. There is plenty of family activities. We would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Wow! Where to begin??? I was very hesitant to even stop at this campground because of the previous reviews. On our way to Texas to pick up our new 5th wheel, we stopped by to check it out. The staff was so helpful and the place was super clean and not muddy! Booked a reservation for that night and took off for TX to get our 5th wheel. Got back to park at about 6 or so and spent a quiet night on our giant pull through slot (13). The next day we enjoyed 2 hay rides, rode the canoes and paddle boats, played mini-golf and, of course, spent the rest of the day at the amazing sprayground/ water slide/ 3 foot pool. Everyone there was so helpful. The bathrooms and showers were immaculate. We were so pleased with everything that we decided to stay another night! This trip just could not have been any better. We can't wait to get back to Lake Charles to visit Jellystone again!!! Don't be afraid to check it out for yourselves. It's very easy to get to from I-10 (exit 36, Cameron) and I know you'll be as happy as we were here! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
