Loved camping here. Two great play grounds and a splash pad. Hot showers. Two washers and two dryers. It’s was peaceful and lovely. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

What a beautiful surprise just a few minutes south of the city. If you’re visiting New Orleans and you want some authentic deep South feel come take a walk around this park. Great walking trails. Great camping. Clean and safe. Check out picnic island. Love it here!!!

St. Bernard State Park was one of two locations that I stopped with a 13' travel trailer during a trip to New Orleans. It was about a 30 minute-1 hour drive to various parts of town. The area was quiet, fairly well spread out, clean, and safe. The park is laid out as two loops. The showers had wonderfully hot water. The best part, however, was the staff. Though I went during the holiday season, I was called beforehand to acquaint myself with the park, I had my own map with added instructions waiting for me, and everyone I talked to was kind and helpful. I felt very welcomed during my stay. I also work online, so I can let people know that at&t tower signal is good enough for video conferencing, though I would perhaps not use the wifi at the park. For some reason, it made me experience connectivity issues, even with things like calls, that was a bit frustrating. If possible, just stick to cellular (the only negative I have for the experience, which could just be something that happened to me). All in all, I would definitely stay here again. (Weather in December was perfect : 60-75 the entire time)

Enjoyed a recent camping trip here. The campground is small but very well maintained. And quiet, even with a full park. The sites all have updated electrical boxes that are lit. WiFi worked really well but we were right by the router, I believe, at site #14. Bathroom facilities are super clean, too.

What a nice campground. It does have a few sites that are full hook up, but they go fast. Not too crowded. Very large campsites. Picnic table on a concrete slab. Nice big fire pit and asphalt campsite. Clean showers and bathroom. Camp attendant was super helpful and flexible. Needed to check in early and was able to do that with no problem. I am marking this site every time we come to New Orleans.
