We stayed here while biking The Southern Tier Bike Trail. It was calm, beautiful, and clean. I couldn’t believe our luck at finding a reasonably priced campground so close to the city! What a blessing to have a hot shower after a long day on the bike! Would definitely stay here again.

We stayed at St. Bernard State Park in Louisiana, just outside of New Orleans, and it was such a peaceful and beautiful park. We had electric and water hookups, no sewer, but there was a dumping station. We originally planned to stay for 2 weeks during Christmas but then asked if we could stay an additional week to further experience New Orleans during New Year's. They were very accommodating and allowed us to move spots the last week and enjoy the area a little longer. The drive to New Orleans wasn’t bad either, and it was nice to be out of the city! We had a little pop-up gazebo set up outside and spent time outside every night. Such an amazing experience! I would highly recommend it if you are wanting to visit the area. Super peaceful, quiet, and reasonably priced!

This is a great place to camp! Sites are good-sized and spaced apart. It's clean and a nice distance to visit New Orleans but stay in a peaceful environment. We had a fun evening walk around the loop photographing armadillos. The staff is very nice & willing to answer questions and give information about the park.

What a beautiful surprise just a few minutes south of the city. If you’re visiting New Orleans and you want some authentic deep South feel come take a walk around this park. Great walking trails. Great camping. Clean and safe. Check out picnic island. Love it here!!!

St. Bernard State Park was one of two locations that I stopped with a 13' travel trailer during a trip to New Orleans. It was about a 30 minute-1 hour drive to various parts of town. The area was quiet, fairly well spread out, clean, and safe. The park is laid out as two loops. The showers had wonderfully hot water. The best part, however, was the staff. Though I went during the holiday season, I was called beforehand to acquaint myself with the park, I had my own map with added instructions waiting for me, and everyone I talked to was kind and helpful. I felt very welcomed during my stay. I also work online, so I can let people know that at&t tower signal is good enough for video conferencing, though I would perhaps not use the wifi at the park. For some reason, it made me experience connectivity issues, even with things like calls, that was a bit frustrating. If possible, just stick to cellular (the only negative I have for the experience, which could just be something that happened to me). All in all, I would definitely stay here again. (Weather in December was perfect : 60-75 the entire time)

Enjoyed a recent camping trip here. The campground is small but very well maintained. And quiet, even with a full park. The sites all have updated electrical boxes that are lit. WiFi worked really well but we were right by the router, I believe, at site #14. Bathroom facilities are super clean, too.

What a nice campground. It does have a few sites that are full hook up, but they go fast. Not too crowded. Very large campsites. Picnic table on a concrete slab. Nice big fire pit and asphalt campsite. Clean showers and bathroom. Camp attendant was super helpful and flexible. Needed to check in early and was able to do that with no problem. I am marking this site every time we come to New Orleans.
