“making the Big Easy, easy!”

This KOA makes the Big Easy, well, easy! It's the KOA closest to the French Quarter and the finest food, sassiest jazz and wildest times in the south! It's a great place to recharge or use Wi-Fi in a serene setting with trees, concrete pads and grass.  Sample the piquant pleasures of real Cajun cooking or the one-of-a-kind charms of the French Quarter and Bourbon Street. Bike, walk, or run the trail on the Mississippi levee. Saunter the famous riverbanks and watch the paddlewheelers ferry back and forth, as in times gone by. Visit the world-class Audubon Zoo, Audubon Aquarium & Insectarium, and The National WWII Museum. Let KOA's staff arrange swamp boat tours, steamboat tours, Hop On Hop Off tours, super city bus tours, cemetery tours, Garden District walking tours, and many, many more!!! Pets welcome! Pool: April 15 - October 15. Your hosts: Michael & Deborah Dunn & Family.DO NOT USE GPS!  From I-10: Take Exit 223A Williams Blvd (LA 49). Go south on Williams Blvd to the end (LA 48/Jefferson Highway). Turn left & go 3/4 of a mile. We are on the left (Starrett Road). We have a big yellow fence & sign out front. DO NOT USE GPS! GPS will run you down roads that are not RV or travel trailer friendly!

We took both options to drive in and use the shuttle. I would advise to use the shuttle if you just want to have a day out as parking is expensive in the city. We really enjoyed our stay at this koa and would defiantly advise people to do the same.

Family of 5 stayed in shady spot 54 across from pool and showers. Very nice staff and looked out for you 24/7. The front desk lady will walk your dog for you. The overnight man in the golf cart keeps an eye on everything. Bathrooms are accessible with a code. Very clean. Very inexpensive laundromat that work well- dryer works very well. Took Shuttle into New Orleans. The driver was funny- great historian with satirical humor. The Hop On Hop Off bus in NO was the best way to see the city. Stayed 3 nights- and paid $5 per hour after checkout until 5pm so we didn't have to pay another full night but got to enjoy another half day in NO. Used Uber several times back to KoA. Great place!!

The site is around 14 miles away from the city, which took about 45 minutes to drive. The team will navigate you on the best route. There is a free shuttle at 9am ( pickup 5.45pm) and also at 5.00pm( no pick up).

Great campground, awesome tenting sites -all under a shady tree, elevated from the parking space in front of it and flat sand plots which made them perfect for camping. The store was well-stocked, staff was very friendly, offered a shuttle to the French Quarter for free and the showers and bathrooms were very nice. Felt safe and comfortable staying there. Would stay again.

Only a few minutes off the interstate. Fantastic staff, they are extremely friendly. Well stocked shop with free coffee :)
We were booked for two mights but only stayed one. We heard 7 gunshots about a mile away which it turned out to be a gang shooting.
Gun crime, muggings and attacks on tourists in the tourist areas have increased and an attack on Bourbon Street within 50 yards of a group of police men put us off visiting the area on our second day/evening :(

This has been the smallest KOA I’ve been to. Very tight. Not in a super great area. I don’t know what else would be better for visiting New Orleans but I would’ve looked around more. This was okay for just staying a couple nights

We choose a KOA as we go to McDonald's: we expect a standard. Cement and level grounds are appreciated, but it's a tight, the entrance is not easy to find and the dog park is non-existent. We hear what seems to be gunshots all night long. But the staff are helpful and a long cycle path nearby is appreciated.

Careful! We had to make a couple of u-turns to find the entrance. No surprises for a KOA. Back in, FHU, level. Not much space. Nice neighbor and helpful staff. Close to New Orleans airport and interstate to NO, Trolly to downtowns still is not running.

A small campground carved out of a neighborhood, it’s been here a while. All back in sites, a fair number of permanent residents. Good wi-fi, the staff are great; friendly checkin, always available, and there’s usually someone patrolling at night. If you’re worried about backing in, don’t worry, they are experts at coaching you through it if needed. We were here over New Years, if you have a dog and/or don’t want to be kept up all night with fireworks, don’t come to New Orleans/Louisiana over the holiday. They shoot off really big fireworks, for hours.
