Location: Mandeville, LA
Site#: 138
Type of hookups: Water and Electric 50 AMP only. Dump station was easily accessible.
Big Rig Friendly: Yes, but watch for the low hang branches driving through the park. Some areas we drove down the middle of the road.
Wi-Fi: Yes, but at times it was slow. We also used our Verizon Aircard which worked fine.
Cable: No.
Pros: Very Large (both wide and long) back in paved sites. Lots of activities to do in the area. New Orleans is about an hour drive; hiking trails and lots of geocaching in the park. Also, the Tammy Trace rails to trails is located just outside the entrance of the park.
Cons: Lots of traffic in the area, which made it troublesome to do shopping or just going to the post office. No play area for Koko, we couldn't even play with her on our own site. Ranger said the leash has to be in your hands at all times, or we would be fined.

Rating: 7.75
Notes: We stay here to tour the New Orleans area, and thought it was a better option than driving the mothership into one of the campgrounds in the city.
