Totally primitive, totally beautiful, and totally free.

Boy Scout Camp is used primarily by motorcycle campers, not boy scouts, but you’ll certainly benefit from some good ole boy scout preparation here. You’ll find nothing but woods and trails in these parts, and your wits alone will provide you with food, shelter, water, and sanitation needs. Are you up for it? If you’ve been craving some alone time, this primitive Boy Scout Camp is just what you’re looking for.

The Ark At Oxbow Lake

2 sites · RVs, Tents5 acres · Moss Bluff, LA
The Ark at Oxbow Lake is a peaceful, faith-inspired RV haven nestled along the gentle curve of a historic oxbow lake. True to its name—evoking the refuge of Noah’s Ark—this campground provides a place of rest and renewal for travelers seeking a deeper connection with nature and the divine. Towering cypress trees line the shore, their moss-draped branches creating a tranquil canopy over the calm waters. Whether you enjoy kayaking at sunrise, casting a line in hopes of reeling in the day’s catch, or simply soaking up the hush of the evening, you’ll find The Ark at Oxbow Lake offers an atmosphere of serenity and spiritual reflection. Come experience a blend of genuine Southern hospitality, comforting amenities, and the soulful beauty of creation—an invitation to step aboard and find refuge in the stillness of these waters.
