The park is located about 10 miles north of Bastrop. From Monroe, take either US 165 or LA 139 north to Bastrop. From Bastrop, Take US 425 north to LA 1257 (Loop Park Road).
The park was great, so don't get me wrong. The customer service on the other hand was a disgrace. i will not be returning back to this park for any occasion
Wonderful and peaceful place to unwind, hike, bike, kayak, camp just about what we you can imagine. The have very nice and spacious cabins, secluded camp sites, the bath houses are super updated and very clean. Definitely worth the stop and play!
I took my grandson here today, and we found it to be a very pleasant trail experience. This location has a swimming pool along with Cabins that are able to be rented. The trails are wide and clear enough for the youngest of adventures to enjoy. There is no swimming, but you can rent Kayaks to explore the waterways. The picnic areas have grills and they are both shaded and close to the restrooms. there is an open area for large gathers and places to play football, or just lounge on the grass. I will be looking into renting a cabin for the weekend very soon.
Really nice place to camp cabins where great. Easy access to fishing areas. We had a great time. Will be going back soon.
Beautiful peaceful park. We adventured here today to kayak up to the castle tree but would be disappointed (this is on us though for not doing our research better on a spur of the moment trip) the play grounds seemed very clean and you do have to pay to enter this park I think it was 2 dollars. It does however loose a star because there was not a clear path to the main kayaking attraction and there was no indicators of how high the water levels should be to actually enjoy the tree. (Something this park may want to look into.) we kayaked about a mile before putting in the gpa coordinates to the tree and then continued to paddle as hard as we could the next 2 miles up river. Turns out the water levels were so high that we couldn’t even see the opening of castle tree. It took approximately 2 hours and 20 minutes to kayak up river and 30 minutes to kayak back to the parking area. But it was fun and we ended up having a blast. I will say that when the water levels are this high it’s not a good idea if you are a beginner kayaker.
