The Baton Rouge area has plenty of options for RV campers.
From paddling the Mississippi River and exploring the Old Governor’s Museum in town, to hiking through Tickfaw State Park and birding in Lake Fausse Pointe State Park, outdoor lovers will find plenty of adventures in the Baton Rouge area. If you’re rolling up in an RV, you can take advantage of the city’s proximity to the Gulf of Mexico, just an hour south, or head inland for forests and rivers. A good selection of RV parks in the area offer options for everyone from family-friendly sites in state parks to secluded private sites in more remote locales, many of which offer free wifi and full hookups—equestrians will even find horse camping sites. Whatever time of year you bring your RV to Baton Rouge, you’ll likely encounter pleasant, warm weather but campers will find waterside sites especially appealing during the heat of Louisiana’s steamy summers.
