Mardi Gras Park

Gary's absolutely right... walk in...short cab ride back

Thanks all. The French Quarter RV Resort sure looks like a great place. At $199 a night it would be the most expensive park we've been to for any event. Their regular rate is $79 a night, making their 150% special event premium hard the swallow. 3 days and $600 in park fees sure would cut into the fun money for the party :-(

Gil, That sounds like the hurricane premium some of these guys charge after a storm. Hopefully, they include a "lot" more fun for that price.

Bayou Segnette State Park is also nice, it is just not near as convenient. I havent checked to see if it has reopened after Katrina. It is located on the south side of the river about a 15 minute drive away from the Quarter. It has paved roads and sites and 50 amp service and is like camping in the woods. If it is open it may be a cheaper alternative.

We have stayed at the state park since Katrina and as Loc said it isn't as convenient but it's a nice location and much less expensive then The French Quarter Park.

We have stayed at the KOA and with a rental car it all worked out less expensive.
