My wife and I are native south Louisianians. I grew up fishing, trawling, catching seafood, hunting and skiing in Westwego. My wife grew up near New Orleans eating poboys and beignets. We moved to Prairieville 20 years ago. It’s just over an hour from New Orleans and our Bayou property is very similar to what we were accustomed to in Cajun country, Westwego. Learn more about this land: We own 2 acres of partially secluded property on Bayou Manchac. Our place is a genuine Cajun retreat inside and out. We’re operating one short stay and one extended stay campsite and all 3 experience options at this time;. The site is on the Bayou; great for relaxing, bird and turtle watching, kayaking, etc. (There is a public boat launch if needed) Great place for adult only relaxation or for families. Grassy area with firepit for s’mores, archery equipment, etc. Scenic neighborhood for bike riding and walking. We’re close to Baton Rouge and LSU; also about an hour away from the New Orleans metro area. Authentic Cajun hosts lives in a unique A-frame on the property and can point you to attractions and seafood markets. We are lifelong locals with lots of knowledge of the area! We can interact with you as much or as little as you’d like. We love to cook and often share Cajun meals with our guests!. *Available tours for a small cost; See Experience section for details.

The neighborhood and location is pretty beautiful and quiet. The campsite has a very nice yard by the bayou where most of the noise are birds. So peaceful. The hosts are very friendly and flexible.

Cajun fun on the bayou!
This place is fantastic! Maria and Timmie will treat you to a wonderful experience. Whether that be a crawfish boil, a boat ride on the bayou or a day out fishing and sight seeing! They were incredibly welcoming and truly amazing people! If we ever come back to Louisiana, we know where we’ll be staying!

Wonderfull place
Maria and Timmie are one of the most wonderfull people we have met. They are very welcoming and showed us places that we would not have visited by our own. Their place is extremely quiet. If we ever come back in Louisiana, we will come back for sure.

Gorgeous spot right on the river with a massive yard. Was super easy to pull in and hook up, and Maria and Timmie were so sweet and friendly. Thank you again for everything!

Pretty spot!

What a neat spot. Our host, Timmie, was very welcoming and gracious. The campspot is on his circular drive, but it's honestly really great. The view is pretty and they have a very nice setup.
