Location: While specific address details are not listed, the park is known to be easily accessed via a scenic drive.

Highlights

  • Beach Proximity: The campground is just a short walk from a cleaner-than-expected beach that provides a peaceful retreat from the heat.
  • Camping Facilities: The sites accommodate both water and electric setups, with an available dump station, and feature clean restroom and laundry facilities.
  • Recreational Activities: Fishing (notably for trout and red fish) is a major draw, alongside a relaxing atmosphere perfect for unwinding.

Tips for Visitors

  • Get ready for a scenic drive to the park, and keep bug spray handy to combat seasonal insects.
  • If visiting during peak season (June to August), expect a lively environment, especially among fishing enthusiasts.
  • Note that dogs are not permitted on the beach, so plan accordingly if you’re traveling with pets.

Overall Thoughts

Grand Isle State Park is a tucked-away gem that offers a peaceful escape from bustling city life. While the remnants of Hurricane Ida are still visible, the park’s rejuvenation underscores its resilience and beauty. This destination is perfect for those seeking solace, scenic natural views, and a variety of outdoor activities. However, it’s not the choice for those seeking a bustling range of activities, offering a more relaxed and nature-focused experience instead.

Very nice RV/tent park in the state park, situated between a lagoon and the ocean (no views of either), but a short walk to both. Quiet and relaxing (except during their season (June, July,and August) with the main attraction being fishing (trout, red fish). Sites are electic and water only, with a dump station on site.

Small 49 site campground within walking distance of the beach. The beach was cleaner and nicer than expected and was a nice respite from the heat. I wish dogs were allowed on leash, but I suppose it's because some just won't clean up after their dogs. Well worth the scenic drive to get Don't forget to bring bug spray!

$3. A person. They could have told us at the gate that the observation tower was closed for construction. I couple other roads were blocked off as well. Save yourself the money and just go to the free beach until you can experience everything.

Very nice camper spots, extremely clean park, restrooms, and laundry facility. The camp host, Bruce, is amazing. He's very knowledgeable about everything and friendly and helpful. The only downfall is the men's restroom has no AC or very little AC, My bf complained about it being very humid and uncomfortable. The women's restroom and laundry are very cold.

Remote and tucked away, this place is a gem. We are camping and the sites are nice and just a quick walk from the beach. The devastation of hurricane Ida can still be seen in the area. That is very sad… But they have done a phenomenal job of rebuilding this park. There is not a lot to do in the area but if you’re looking for quiet, relaxation and a beautiful setting, you can’t do much better than this. The beach is gorgeous and very quiet. There is a bike trail that will take you around the island. But again, if you’re looking for a whole lot to do in the area, there is not much.
