Campgrounds near Maurice, Louisiana
Maurice is a small town in Vermilion Parish, Louisiana, sitting just south of Lafayette on LA-167. The location puts RV travelers within a short drive of Cajun country attractions, the Vermilion River, and the marsh and prairie ecosystems that define south-central Louisiana. It is a practical base for exploring Acadiana without staying inside the busier Lafayette city limits.
RV options in the immediate area lean toward private parks with full hookups. Acadian Oasis RV Park sits closest to town, while Lafayette KOA Holiday, Betty's RV Park, Quality Sports Authority And RV Park, and Frog City RV Park spread out along the I-10 and US-90 corridors within roughly a half-hour drive. Betty's RV Park in nearby Abbeville has a long-standing reputation among Cajun-country travelers.
For state-park camping, Palmetto Island State Park sits on the Vermilion River south of Abbeville and offers a boat launch plus interior lagoons for paddlers. Lake Fausse Pointe State Park, on the western edge of the Atchafalaya Basin, features cabins, RV campsites, a boat launch, and primitive canoe-in sites.
Things to do near Maurice
Cajun and Creole culture anchor most trip itineraries. Visitors can tour the Acadian Cultural Center or Vermilionville, a folk-life park built as a 19th-century bayou village that operates as an interactive museum. LARC's Acadian Village near Lafayette is a recreated early Acadian settlement with restored period homes.
Outdoor activity centers on water. Swamp tours operate from nearby communities such as Breaux Bridge, Henderson, and Martinville along the Atchafalaya Basin. Fishing, paddling, and birding are accessible at Palmetto Island and Lake Fausse Pointe. Lafayette is known for a dense concentration of restaurants specializing in regional seafood-forward Cajun and Creole cooking, which makes evenings out an easy part of any trip.

The Maurice area has a humid subtropical climate. Summer months from June to August represent the apex of Lafayette's subtropical climate, with maximum average temperatures peaking near 90°F and overnight lows staying in the mid-70s. Heat, humidity, and afternoon thunderstorms are the norm, and mosquitoes peak from late spring through early fall, especially at dawn and dusk.
Spring and fall are the strongest windows for RV travel. April brings the multi-day Festival International de Louisiane, which fills downtown Lafayette with multiple music stages, and Festivals Acadiens et Créoles takes place in October at Girard Park in Lafayette. Both drive up local demand for RV sites.
Winter is the mildest and driest stretch for camping. Winter in Lafayette is relatively mild, with December averaging highs near 62°F and January bringing the coldest average lows around 44°F. The best time of year to visit Lafayette is mid February to April and October to November. The Atlantic hurricane season runs June through November, so travelers should track forecasts during that window.

Booking a campsite near Maurice
Private RV parks in and around Maurice, including Acadian Oasis RV Park, Lafayette KOA Holiday, Betty's RV Park, Quality Sports Authority And RV Park, and Frog City RV Park, generally take reservations directly by phone or through their own websites. Booking a few weeks ahead is usually enough outside of festival dates, but Festival International in April and Festivals Acadiens et Créoles in October can fill Lafayette-area sites well in advance.
For Louisiana state parks such as Palmetto Island and Lake Fausse Pointe, reservations go through the Go Outdoors Louisiana system at GoOutdoorsLouisiana.com, the state's central reservation service for cabins and campsites. Reservations must be made at least 48 hours prior to arrival and can be made up to 13 months in advance. A non-refundable transaction fee is assessed on each reservation made online, by phone, or as a walk-in.
What to expect on the ground
Terrain around Maurice is flat, with rice fields, sugarcane, bayous, and coastal prairie. Most private RV parks in the corridor between Lafayette and Abbeville offer level pull-through sites with full hookups, and access roads are generally easy for larger rigs. Cellular service is reliable near the I-10 and US-90 corridors and weakens as travelers push toward the coastal marsh.
Expect humidity year-round and biting insects from late spring through early fall. Bug spray is a year-round essential in this region. Alligators, wading birds, and nutria are common sights in the surrounding wetlands, and guided swamp tours are the safest way to see them up close.
Fuel, groceries, and RV supplies are easy to find in Lafayette and Abbeville. Local food, from boudin and cracklins to boiled crawfish in season, is a defining part of the experience and widely available at small-town markets and roadside stands.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Maurice, LA
How much does an RV rental in Maurice cost, and how can I save?
Maurice is one of the more affordable launching points for an RV trip in south Louisiana. Most RV rentals in Maurice run roughly $90 to $200 per night for travel trailers and $150 to $325 per night for Class C motorhomes, with larger Class A rigs priced higher. Because Maurice sits about 10 miles south of Lafayette on US-167, you'll find solid inventory of nearby rigs without big-city pricing. To grab a cheap RV rental in Maurice, book midweek, travel in late winter or early spring, and look for hosts offering weekly discounts. Tip: avoid the Festival International weekend in Lafayette (late April), when demand spikes across Acadiana.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Maurice%2C%20LouisianaWhat license do I need to rent an RV in Maurice?
Good news for first-timers: your regular driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in Maurice. Louisiana allows a standard Class E (or equivalent out-of-state) license to operate virtually every RV on the RVezy platform, since they fall well under the 26,000-pound threshold that would require a commercial endorsement. RVezy approved drivers are generally 25 or older, and verification happens directly in the app, so there's no paperwork shuffle at pickup. Visiting from abroad? Bring an International Driving Permit alongside your home-country license. That's it, you're cleared to hit Highway 167 and start your Cajun country adventure.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat protection comes with my Maurice RV rental?
You're covered from the moment you book. Every RV rental in Maurice booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so a flat tire on LA-92 or a dead battery at Lake Fausse Pointe is just a phone call away. You choose your protection level at checkout (not the host), and the plan helps cover physical damage to the RV during your trip. It isn't traditional auto insurance, but it provides real financial peace of mind. That way you can focus on boudin stops at Hebert's Specialty Meats instead of worrying about a Vermilion Parish thunderstorm.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat happens if I need to cancel my Maurice RV trip?
Booking is low-risk. RVezy sets the cancellation policy (not individual hosts), and every booking includes a grace-period window where you can get a full refund shortly after booking. After that, your refund depends on how far out you cancel. If a host cancels, guests receive a refund or travel credit. If a tropical system threatens the Gulf Coast during your dates, contact RVezy support to discuss your options. Because the policy is consistent platform-wide, planning a Maurice RV trip is refreshingly stress-free.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a pet-friendly RV rental in Maurice?
Absolutely, and your pup will love it. Plenty of pet-friendly RV rental options in Maurice are easy to spot using the Pet-Friendly filter on RVezy. Vermilion Parish is a dog-friendly corner of Louisiana, and both Palmetto Island State Park (about 25 minutes south near Abbeville) and Lake Fausse Pointe State Park (about an hour east) welcome leashed pets on trails and at campsites. Many hosts list a small pet fee or include pet-friendly amenities. Tip: pack extra fresh water and plan walks for early morning or evening, because Acadiana humidity is no joke for furry travelers from May through September.
lastateparks.com/parks/palmetto-island-state-parkCan the RV be delivered to my campsite or driveway in Maurice?
Yes, RV delivery in Maurice is one of the easiest ways to skip the stress of driving a rig you've never handled. Many hosts in the Lafayette and Maurice area offer delivery and setup to Palmetto Island State Park, Lake Fausse Pointe State Park, KOA Lafayette, or a private driveway in town. Use the Delivery filter on RVezy, message your host for a quote (usually based on mileage from their location), and they'll arrive, level the rig, hook up power and water, and walk you through every system. It's a game-changer for first-time RV renters who'd rather show up, settle in, and head straight to Suire's Grocery for turtle sauce piquant.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106594-Delivery-optionsHow far can I drive, and are there RV rentals with unlimited mileage?
You've got room to roam. Hosts in Maurice set their own mileage allowances, with many including 100 to 150 free miles per day and some offering an RV rental with unlimited mileage as an add-on or as part of weekly rates. From Maurice, that easily covers a loop to New Orleans (about 135 miles east via I-10), Houston (about 220 miles west), Lake Charles (about 75 miles), the Atchafalaya Basin (30 minutes), or Gulf Shores, Alabama (around 240 miles). Filter for Unlimited Mileage on RVezy or message the host before booking to confirm. Tip: a Maurice to Avery Island day trip is only 25 miles, perfect for a low-mileage Tabasco factory tour.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Maurice%2C%20LouisianaWhere should I camp on an RV trip from Maurice?
You're spoiled for choice for RV camping in Maurice and the surrounding parishes. Top picks include Palmetto Island State Park in Abbeville (about 25 minutes south, with improved sites along the Vermilion River), Lake Fausse Pointe State Park near St. Martinville (RV sites in the Atchafalaya Basin), KOA Lafayette just north of town, Cajun Palms RV Resort in Henderson with a lazy river and cabins, and Maxie's Campground in Broussard. For the best campgrounds near Maurice, book Louisiana state parks 60 to 90 days out, because weekend sites fill quickly. Insider tip: ask for a site with a water view at Palmetto Island, the cypress at sunrise are unbeatable.
lastateparks.com/parks/palmetto-island-state-parkWhen is the best time to take an RV trip from Maurice?
The sweet spot is mid-October through April, when Vermilion Parish trades summer humidity for crisp, sunny days in the 60s and 70s. Spring (March to May) brings wildflowers, crawfish boils, and Festival International in nearby Lafayette. Fall is arguably the best season for an RV road trip from Maurice, because the mosquitoes back off and you can comfortably explore Avery Island or the Atchafalaya Basin. Summers run hot and humid with highs in the low 90s and afternoon thunderstorms, while winters stay mild (40s to 60s). Tip: book a December rental and catch the Cajun and Creole Christmas bonfires along the bayous.
weather.gov/lch/I've never driven an RV. Will I be okay picking one up in Maurice?
You're going to do great. First time renting an RV is exactly what your Maurice host is ready for. Every RVezy host provides a full walkthrough at pickup: how to operate slide-outs, hook up to shore power, dump tanks, run the generator, and use the awning. You can message them with questions before booking, and 24/7 roadside assistance has your back on the road. Maurice itself is small-town friendly, with wide, flat roads and easy access to US-167. For your first drive, head south on LA-82 toward Abbeville, the route is calm, scenic, and low-traffic, perfect for getting comfortable behind the wheel before tackling the I-10 bridge over the Atchafalaya.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/categories/360002180414-RentersWhat if something goes wrong on the road near Maurice?
You're never alone out there. Every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the protection plan, covering flat tires, dead batteries, lockouts, fuel delivery, and towing. Whether you're broken down on I-10 near Henderson Swamp or stuck on a backroad to Forked Island, one call connects you to dispatch. Your host is also a direct message away for questions about quirky switches or appliance hiccups. Maurice sits about 10 miles from full-service RV shops in Lafayette, so parts and service are close. Tip: save your host's number and RVezy support in your phone before you pull out of the driveway.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take my Maurice RV rental across state lines or into Mexico?
Cross-state travel is wide open. From Maurice, popular routes head west into Texas (Beaumont, Houston, Galveston), east through Mississippi to the Gulf Coast, or north into Arkansas, all covered under your RVezy protection plan. Give your host a heads-up so they know your route. Travel into Mexico is not allowed on any RVezy rental because insurance coverage stops at the border. Canada is generally permitted with host approval, though it's a long haul from south Louisiana. Tip: a classic Gulf Coast loop from Maurice (Lafayette, New Orleans, Mobile, Pensacola) clocks in around 700 miles and makes for an unforgettable week.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityWhat should I budget for fuel on an RV trip from Maurice?
Louisiana has some of the lowest gas prices in the country, which is a real perk when fueling up an RV. Expect roughly 8 to 10 MPG for a Class C motorhome and 6 to 8 MPG for a Class A in the Maurice area, while a truck towing a travel trailer typically gets 10 to 12 MPG. With Louisiana pump prices usually running well below the national average, a week-long Acadiana loop (around 400 miles) typically costs $150 to $250 in fuel. Top off in Maurice or Abbeville before heading to Lake Fausse Pointe, where the nearest pump is roughly 25 miles away. Tip: stations along US-167 in Maurice usually have the lowest prices in Vermilion Parish.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far in advance should I book campgrounds near Maurice?
Plan ahead and you're golden. Louisiana State Parks like Palmetto Island and Lake Fausse Pointe accept reservations well in advance through the official Louisiana State Parks reservation system, and prime weekends (March through May, October, November) book up 60 to 90 days out. Private parks like KOA Lafayette and Cajun Palms in Henderson usually have more flexibility but still fill fast around Festival International (late April), Mardi Gras, and the Gueydan Duck Festival. Weekday and shoulder-season trips often have same-week availability. Tip: if Palmetto Island is full, Betty's RV Park in Abbeville is a beloved local gem, so call directly.
reserveamerica.com/explore/louisiana-state-parks/LAWhat are driving conditions like around Maurice and Acadiana?
Easy and beginner-friendly. Maurice sits on flat coastal prairie with straight, wide roads and gentle speed limits, which is great for an RV. US-167 connects you to Lafayette in 15 minutes, and LA-82 follows the Vermilion River toward the Gulf. Watch for sudden afternoon thunderstorms May through September (pull over if visibility drops), occasional fog on bayou crossings on winter mornings, and the I-10 Atchafalaya Basin Bridge between Lafayette and Baton Rouge, which is about 18 miles long with narrow shoulders, so mid-morning is the easiest time to cross. Hurricane season runs June through November, so check forecasts before heading south to Holly Beach. Tip: alligators sunning on rural shoulders are real, give them space.
511la.org/What amenities should I expect at campgrounds near Maurice?
Acadiana campgrounds are well-equipped. Most RV parks within an hour of Maurice (KOA Lafayette, Cajun Palms RV Resort, Maxie's Campground) offer full hookups (water, 30/50-amp electric, sewer), Wi-Fi, hot showers, laundry, and dump stations. State parks like Palmetto Island and Lake Fausse Pointe provide water and electric at most sites, with central dump stations on-site. For potable water and dumping mid-trip, the Pilot Travel Center in Scott (15 minutes north) is a reliable stop. Many local parks also have pools, fishing ponds, and boat launches. Tip: pack bug spray with DEET, the Atchafalaya Basin has world-class mosquitoes from April to October.
lastateparks.com/parks/palmetto-island-state-parkWhat's included inside a typical motorhome rental in Maurice?
You'll be camping in real comfort. A typical motorhome rental in Maurice (or campervan rental in Maurice if you prefer a Class B) comes equipped with a queen or king bed, full kitchen (fridge, stove, microwave, sink), bathroom with shower and toilet, a dining area that converts to extra sleeping, climate control, and seatbelted passenger seats. Most rigs include a TV, Bluetooth stereo, and onboard generator or solar for off-grid power. Wi-Fi varies, so confirm with your host. Listings on RVezy show exactly how many people the RV sleeps and what's onboard. Tip: ask your host if linens, kitchen kits, and outdoor chairs are included, many bundle them free, saving you a Walmart run before heading to Cypremort Point.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Maurice%2C%20LouisianaWhat add-ons and pickup logistics should I know when I rent an RV in Maurice?
Hosts in Maurice keep things flexible. Common add-ons include delivery and setup, extra generator hours, linen and kitchen packages, camp chairs, propane refills, dump-station service at return, and bike racks, with fees clearly listed on each RVezy listing before you book. Standard pickup is at the host's home in Maurice or nearby Lafayette, Broussard, or Youngsville, typically between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m., with drop-off on the morning of your last day. Mileage allowances and generator caps vary, so review them on the listing or message the host. Tip: book the dump-and-return add-on if it's offered, it saves an hour on departure day so you can squeeze in one last beignet stop in Lafayette.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Maurice%2C%20LouisianaHow does the security deposit and payment work for an RV rental in Maurice?
Payment is simple and secure. When you book an RV rental in Maurice through RVezy, you pay through the platform with a credit or debit card, never directly to the host. A refundable security deposit is placed as a hold on your card a few days before your trip and released after the RV is returned in the same condition, typically within a week. Deposit amounts vary by RV type and value and are clearly shown on the listing before you confirm. To avoid issues, do a quick walkthrough video at pickup and drop-off with your host, confirm fuel and propane levels, and respect mileage and generator allowances. Then enjoy your Cajun country adventure worry-free.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksWhat's a great first RV road trip itinerary from Maurice?
Here's a 5-day Maurice RV trip loop that shows off the best of Acadiana. Day 1: Pick up in Maurice, fuel up, and drive 25 minutes to Palmetto Island State Park near Abbeville. Day 2: Day-trip to Avery Island for the Tabasco factory and Jungle Gardens (about 30 minutes). Day 3: Move to Lake Fausse Pointe State Park (about 1 hour east) for swamp tours and gator spotting. Day 4: Head to Henderson and Cajun Palms RV Resort, eat at Pat's Fisherman's Wharf, and take an Atchafalaya Basin airboat ride. Day 5: Return via Breaux Bridge for boudin and zydeco breakfast before drop-off in Maurice. Tip: stop at Hebert's Specialty Meats on Maurice Avenue for stuffed deboned chicken to cook at camp, it's the ultimate Cajun RV dinner.
