Fontainebleau Campground
New Orleans is a city for dancing, imbibing, and eating delicious food, but RV camping rarely tops the list of things to do in the Big Easy. But while the French Quarter might be crowded with revelers, you need only drive a little ways outside the city to experience the tranquility of southern Louisiana’s swamplands.Case in point is Fontainebleau State Park Campground, a 40-minute drive from New Orleans across the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway that feels like it’s in a completely different state. Gone are the bright lights and loud music, replaced with sandy beaches, wily gators, and tasty Cajun dishes. This pet-friendly campground near Lake Pontchartrain has some excellent amenities, too, while keeping things rustic enough for the motorhome camping traveler who wants to appreciate the natural surroundings.Some of the sites come equipped with full hookups including 50 amp electrical capacity; others have just water and electrical hookups, but there are two dump stations near the edge of the RV campground for emptying your tanks. There are also showers and laundry facilities so you can keep yourself and all your clothes clean while camping with an RV.Fontainebleau State Park has an excellent network of trails running the wetlands adjacent to Lake Pontchartrain, too, providing outdoor fun without even needing to leave the campground. The beautiful cypress trees lining the water are a popular spot for wedding photography; so don’t be surprised if you see a few people dressed to the nines while you’re there.
