Payne Lane Farms & Campground

7 sites · RVs8 acres · Rayville, LA

Less than two (2) miles off Interstate 20, just behind "Salvation's Cross" in Rayville, LA... Our home was built by Mr. J. L. and Mrs. Gladys Keys in the 1970's. Mrs. Gladys used to work for my Grandmother at the local ladies dress shop. She and her husband often brought us fresh vegetables they raised on their "little piece of heaven." They had no children and all these years later, their idea of heaven became ours to take care of now. We are so blessed here at Payne Lane Farms. You can safely camp in your travel trailer minutes off of I-20 on our wooded, rural lot minutes from town, convenience stores, food, and even dump stations. The front orchard provides a refuge of shade and privacy while also allowing you to see everything around you. Rayville, Louisiana has great history and heritage and some fun artifacts to explore if you have an adventurous spirit. Good people and family owned businesses if services are needed while enroute-traveling. Welcome! Learn more about this land: Pull thru the front by turning to right of the mail box and not using the driveway! Maybe a little off road, but this is the country and it won’t hurt to just drive thru the yard sometimes. Fresh eggs for sale $3.50 dozen and maybe some fresh vegetables at $3.00 per pound, but ask us as we don't push them. Canning pantry does have inventory for easy meals. Two night max stay. More farm being developed and coming soon! 🍐🍉🍑🍻🐖🐇🐟🐣🐥🐣🐑🐂🫐🍅🥒🌽

The best camping near Poverty Point Reservoir State Park guide

Overview

About

Thousands of acres of pure fun! From fishing to water-skiing, birdwatching to swimming, Poverty Point Reservoir State Park has got it all for your summer vacay. Take the afternoon to paddle down the Bayou Macon, a cool 6.5 mile trail that cruises through the woods of the Deep South. Great for avid kayakers, perfect for rowing newbies. If you want to see the Bayou by foot, walk the nature trail, or just kick back on your private deck at one of the reservable cabins or lodges and take in the views. Keep your radar on the water long enough and you’ll see white pelicans, egrets, and storks! Cypress trees and spanish moss make this Northern Louisiana landscape green and dense, but this park is conveniently close to the historic downtown of Delhi. So, pack up your oars and head to the Bayou where the water is lovely and the wildlife is happenin’!

The ideal time to visit Poverty Point Reservoir State Park is during the spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural scenery is at its peak. Summer months can be quite warm, so be prepared for higher temperatures if you visit then.
