Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park
Overview
Overview
Jellystone Park in Robert offers a high-energy family camping experience set against the backdrop of Louisiana’s beautiful piney woods. Known for its extensive programming and visits from Yogi Bear, this park functions more as a comprehensive destination resort than a simple overnight stop. Travelers find a blend of traditional outdoor camping and modern recreational facilities designed to keep children of all ages engaged throughout their entire stay.
Location & Surroundings
Situated in the quiet community of Robert, LA, the park is nestled within the scenic Northshore region. Its location offers a secluded, natural feel while remaining easily accessible via Interstate 12, making it a convenient stop for cross-country travelers. The surrounding landscape is characterized by dense forests and proximity to the Tangipahoa River, providing a peaceful natural buffer from the hustle of nearby metropolitan centers.
Amenities & Park Features
The park is famous for its massive water zone, featuring multiple slides and interactive splash pads that are perfect for cooling off in the humid Louisiana heat. RVers can choose from a variety of site types, including premium options with full hookups and level concrete pads. On-site entertainment is abundant and includes:
- A large jumping pillow and multi-level playground area

- A dedicated stocked fishing pond for catch-and-release fun
These features ensure there is never a dull moment between the daily scheduled activities and character meet-and-greets.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
While there is plenty to do on-site, the location serves as a perfect gateway to the Global Wildlife Center in nearby Folsom, where visitors can enjoy a safari-like experience. Guests often take short trips to the historic town of Ponchatoula, known as the strawberry capital, to explore local festivals and antique shops. For those craving a taste of the city, the world-renowned dining and jazz clubs of New Orleans are less than an hour’s drive from the campground.
Who This Park Is Best For

The grounds were much nicer than I expected and we really enjoyed the pools, lazy river and slides. The staff were friendly and helpful. Thanks for a great stay!
Steve Armstrong
New concrete pads for most sites, lots of activities for the kids…..trailer rides, tie dye t shirts, bingo etc. very nice pools for warmer months. The negative- vehicles driving very fast through the park, including one delivery driver, no gate to prevent anyone from driving through the park at night, no water to the bathrooms and lots of leaves in the restroom, and long hanging branches throughout which can damage the top of Class A RV’s.

What a great place to stay! Safe and fun! A special thanks to Doreen, reservation manager! She went above and beyond, to accommodate and make sure our needs were taken care of! I can’t thank her enough!

Love camping here. Stayed in a cabin and I think a little privacy is very necessary and none of the windows had any kind of shade or curtain. Super cute but keys would not unlock all the doors and the door handles were not secured almost falling out. Pay a cleaning fee and my feet were completely black 5 mins being in the cabin the dust on the air filter and vent were absolutely disgusting. Stove worked for a total of 2 mins in the middle of cooking dinner. No lifeguard on duty at the pool which is fine but absolutely ridiculous how the have two water slides and nobody monitoring at the top or bottom someone is seriously going to get injured.
