Hey Folks,
In this video we're going to share our RV Camping at Palmetto Island State Park in Abbeville, Louisiana. Its way past the Cajun Village in Sorrento and a few miles south of Abbeville Louisiana (at the bottom of the boot) right in the middle of Cajun Country. While at the RV campground we did our usual campground drive thru and site walk around. As we drive through the campground we'll share our experiences in the area. We did a tour of Avery Island, the home of Tabasco where we had a very nice lunch then drove through the Jungle Gardens. We even saw a couple of alligators. Join us on a drive through historic Abbeville and acres of crawfish farms.
Sit back with some crawfish and check out this video to see another beautiful Louisiana State Park Campground.

We do these campground reviews and drive though video of every place we go rv camping to help as many fellow RVers as possible.

    Mike and the gator 🐊 I had tears from laughing 😂. We enjoy watching y’alls adventures. Beautiful campground! Another one that we will have to visit!
  • @beemor2
    A helpful hint is to show each site instead of the road.
  • We are located near there in Butte La Rose. It isn't a state park but it's rich with history and weekend warriors. They have a big pavillion and events. It's called Cajun Heritage Rv park.Check events for the coming fall season. Their rabbit and deer cook off is an amazing and fun time sha!

  • @rvboondocker2559
    Hey, thanks for the video but when you show campsites, could you actually show the campsite rather than just the road? Thanks.
  • Hey guys just came across your channel. Just subscribed and looking forward your camping adventures. My husband and I just started a channel as well. We are tent campers and are looking forward to upgrading to an RV so we can really hit the road.
  • @louduhon
    All sites now have sewer hookups.
  • Aside from New Orleans might you recommend the best state park to visit in Louisiana?
  • How are the sites, are they level or uneven. which site in your option is the best?
