From Alexandria, take U.S. Highway 167 north for 14 miles. Turn right (east) on Louisiana Hwy 8 and go 4 miles. Turn right (south) on Forest Road 144 and go 1 mile. The entrance is on the right and a fee station is just inside the campground.
Great place for tent/hammock camping. Sites are pristine, gravel, concrete table & benches, clean pit toilet facility, potable water close to all sites, plenty of shade amongst the tall pines. Great for a winter stay, no mosquitos...or people. Fee only $5.00.
I always enjoyed tenting camping here. I felt safer if by myself because all the sites are open to one another like rally camping. I haven’t been back since the price went from $5 to $15.
Use to be good fishing last few times didn't get even a bite . We don't ever swim here anymore since my kids all got severe ear infections from the bacteria growing there.
A small, quiet primitive campground. The campsites are pretty close to a swamp with choruses of frogs calling. Venture down to the swamp and read informational signs of what critters you can see. Remember this campsite is primitive so all they have is running water and pit toilets. There are 8 sites here and sites are $5/night.
This is a campground in the Kitashie National Forest. There are no hookups (dry camping). Potable water is available. The sites are long and wide with a fire ring and picnic table. It was very quite and peaceful. There is a pond with a swimming area and a bathhouse with showers. $15 per night.
