Enterprise to Lake Charles Road Trip Guide

If you’re a fan of history, then no place else on this route will be of more interest to you than the Historical Central Street. The iconic buildings that line this street in Andalusia may make you feel like you’ve stepped back into the 19th-century. Don’t worry; you won’t be the first to feel that way. The buildings are truly fascinating to see.

At the entrance of this street is the Three Notch Museum, which not only gives you the history of the area but also tells the story of the country. This structure used to be a train station in the late 1800s before it was converted into a museum with various interesting artifacts such as handwoven baskets, railroad memorabilia, railway cars, and many more.

When you step out of the museum, you can check out the Corinthian Columns and Hexastyle Portico before heading to the nearby Andalusia RV park for the night.

The USS Alabama Battleship Memorial Park in Mobile is a beautiful sightseeing destination and features one of the most unique U.S. military attractions of all time - The USS Alabama, which was one of the major vessels of WW II. This war machine holds a lot of details about the war, and answers any question enthusiasts may have about the role the vessel played in that fight. It also serves as a monument to honor all those who fought in the war and sacrificed their lives. If you’re coming with kids, they definitely will have fun with all the climbing during the tour.

When you’re done with your tour at the Memorial Park, you can eat at one of Mobile Bay’s finest restaurants, Noja Fine Dining. If you’re not ready to leave Mobile yet, a nearby private campground will provide the accommodation you need in your RV.

On the coast of Mississippi in Ocean Springs, Gulf Islands National Seashore provides visitors with many things to do – you could hike trails with your family as well as watch birds as they fly by and try identifying them if you have a bird guidebook. Besides, you can decide to take a walk along the seashore and experience the tranquillity of nature while the children run around the shore.

The campgrounds in the park allow for picnics and cater for a wide range of accommodation needs, including RV and trailer campsites. If you have a boat, then you could go fishing or take a boat cruise on the lake. The beach is also available for swimming enthusiasts too. If you want to go golfing, the golf park has a golf course where you can test out your golfing skills. And why not try out some seafood at any of the restaurants in the park, that offer some of the best seafood dishes on the coast?

After spending so much time outdoors, you may want a change of scenery and what better place for this than the Louisiana Art and Science Museum in Baton Rouge. The museum has on display amazing features from dinosaur artifacts to modern exhibits such as artistic paintings, engineering structures, and the solar system. The museum’s dynamic exhibits also mean that no two experiences here are ever the same.

Here, if you join the tour, you and your family will find activities customized for you. You’ll find that there are interactive performances that will keep the children learning all day long. The adults are not left behind as there are astronomy classes that you will definitely be wholly immersed in. After a splendid day at the museum, feel free to retire to any of the private RV parks in the city before setting out for Lake Charles the next morning.
