My family and I are going camping in New Orleans next week. We are leaving on Wednesday and coming back on Friday (it's only a 6 hour drive from my house). I have never been to New Orleans, so I was wondering if y'all had any tips or advice. Also, I'm pretty excited and just wanted an opportunity to tell folks that we're going camping in New Orleans.

Re: Camping in the Big Easy
Thanks a lot, I appreciate the advice. We are staying at Jude Travel Park. Quite honestly, it was the cheapest park within a reasonable distance to the city. Plus, they have a lot of the amenities that my wife likes. You know what they say. If mama ain't happy...

Re: Camping in the Big Easy
HogSnapper, I don't take this personally at all. I haven't looked at any satellite photos. Honestly, it never occurred to me. When I did a google search for campgrounds near New Orleans, I didn't see either of the campgrounds that you mentioned. I will definitely check them out. I guess that's what happens when you try to book a campground while on a break at work. Thank you so much for checking into this place and letting me know. I really appreciate this.

Re: Camping in the Big Easy
As I type this, I'm sitting in a folding chair in the shade while camping right outside New Orleans at St. Bernard State Park. It is so beautiful here. Last night it rained a little off and on, and the sound of the rain on the tent combined with crickets chirping, birds singing, and various other unknown critters making their music was simply amazing. Admittedly, during the day, we have heard a train come through once and an airplane land once. However, we are outside in a beautiful and clean campground enjoying God's creation. Life is good! I would love to post pictures but, honestly, I don't know how from my iPhone.
