Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Lake Claiborne State Park adventure.
Relax on a sandy beach by day, then fall asleep beneath the peaceful pine trees at night.
As far as Louisiana state parks go, this one packs in the natural beauty. There's a sandy beach for relaxing and a picturesque lake for water activities. Six serene nature trails let you enjoy the surroundings. Park guides offer hiking tours and present nature-based programs for entertainment.
Pull your RV into one of the 87 campsites, each with water and electrical hookups. Try roughing it with a stay at the primitive camping area. There are 10 deluxe cabins available for rent if you're more akin to glamping. Park facilities, including a pavilion and meeting room, require reservations and a daily fee.
Try your hand at disc golf at one of the two 18-basket courses. The park also offers excellent spots for avid bird-watchers to explore. Boat rentals are available, whether you prefer a kayak, canoe or flat bottom boat. Golf carts are permitted on the property but require an additional fee.
The best time to visit Lake Claiborne State Park is during the spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural beauty is at its peak. Summer brings more visitors and higher temperatures, while winter can be less crowded but cooler.
