The Great Outdoors

When you rent a travel trailer in Lafayette, Louisiana, you’ll discover the abundance of opportunities for outdoor recreation never ends. With such mild weather and natural beauty found throughout the region, Louisiana has become a haven for outdoor enthusiasts seeking adventure and recreation opportunities. The Gulf of Mexico remains warmer throughout the year than the eastward-facing beaches of Florida on the Atlantic Ocean, therefore allowing for ocean swimming for a much longer season.

Louisiana State Parks maintains more than 20 sites and more than 30,000 acres, providing visitors with access to cabins, boat rentals, campsites, guided tours, fishing piers and more. Louisiana has been nicknamed the “Sportsman’s Paradise” and it’s no wonder why. There are extensive amounts of year-round hunting, fishing, golf, hiking, biking and other outdoor recreation opportunities available in the area. The state is also home to one of the largest game preserves in the United States.

Lafayette is well known for its swampland and moss-draped trees, filled with wildlife. This makes the heart of Cajun Country perfect for a trip to bird watch, paddle or fish around Lake Martin or the Bayou Vermilion. The Acadiana Park Nature Station is another destination worth noting when you pick up your Lafayette RV rental by owner. Besides offering a campground, this 150-acre facility boasts a 6-mile trail system and offers nighttime nature hikes, public tours, educational programs, naturalist clubs and a kayak launch on the Bayou Vermilion.

When you rent a motorhome in Lafayette, be sure to plan a trip to Breaux Bridge for the unforgettable and once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience a swamp tour.
