Bayou Wilderness RV Resort, Carenco LA

Stay Date:  October 2006
Our Rating:  REALLY UGLY - 3
What a miserable stay – narrow gravel sites, unfriendly office, and a FEMA trailer park all included for an unreasonably high price ($32).  Free WiFi only worked if you were sitting on the office porch, and free cable had six channels.  Pool was filthy and trash was scattered throughout the “resort”.  We left our site marked with two chairs while we had the motor home serviced, and we returned they were gone.  Turns out that a couple of the FEMA residents “borrowed” them (their words).  We reacquired our chairs and left.  Recent ratings seem to indicate that there are new owners.  Lets hope so.

Paragon Casino Resort RV Park, Marksville LA

Stay Date:  October, 2006
Our Rating:  9 – GOOD
One of the best casino RV Parts, although it’s in a part of Louisiana that is off the beaten path.  Very professional check-in, all paved roads and sites, level, nicely landscaped, and with modular hookups.  Free cable TV, WiFi, and of course, a shuttle to the casino.  Verizon cell and Aircard worked well, and there’s clear sky for the satellite.  A nice casino, but not much else in this area.  Rates vary depending on discounts and “comps”, but well under $20/night.  Paragon Casino Resort RV Park

River View RV Resort and Park, Vidalia LA

Stay Date:  October 2006
Our Rating:  9 – GOOD
We really enjoyed our stay here.  Professional check–in at an impressive office/store, paved roads and sites, and a view of the Mississippi River.  Good hookups, Escapee discount, and close to intriguing Natchez.  Nice hot tub and pool, free WiFi, but weaker the farther you get from the office.  Verizon cell and Aircard worked well.  Free cable and clear sky for the satellite.  A classy operation, worth the price ($35-40).  River View RV Resort and Park
