Camping near Saint Martinville
Saint Martinville sits on Bayou Teche in the heart of Acadiana, about 30 minutes southeast of Lafayette. The town is small and historic, and campers use it as a base for exploring Cajun Country, the Atchafalaya Basin, and the string of state and private RV parks scattered across St. Martin and Iberia parishes. Louisiana State Parks operates Longfellow-Evangeline State Historic Site inside the town limits and Lake Fausse Pointe State Park to the east, adjacent to the Atchafalaya Basin.
RV travelers typically choose between private full-hookup parks near town and state park campsites deeper in the swamp. Bon Temps RV Park, Isle of Iberia RV Resort, Parkside RV Park, La Boulaie RV Park and Campground, and Maxie's Campground LLC provide the closest private options, generally offering paved or gravel pads with water, sewer, and electric.
The surrounding landscape is flat, low, and wet. Expect cypress swamps, sugar cane fields, and easy driving on state highways connecting Saint Martinville to New Iberia, Breaux Bridge, and Lafayette.
Things to do near Saint Martinville
Downtown holds the Evangeline Oak, St. Martin de Tours Church, and the Acadian Memorial, all within walking distance along Bayou Teche. Longfellow-Evangeline State Historic Site preserves the Maison Olivier plantation and a reproduction Acadian Farmstead just inside town limits.
Outdoor activity centers on water. Lake Fausse Pointe State Park covers roughly 6,000 acres adjacent to the Atchafalaya Basin and offers a boat launch, canoe and kayak rentals, three hiking trails, and a canoe trail through cypress swamp. Guided swamp tours operate from nearby Lake Martin and Henderson.
Day trips include Avery Island for the TABASCO factory and Jungle Gardens, plus Vermilionville and other Cajun cultural sites in Lafayette.

How to book campgrounds near Saint Martinville
Louisiana State Parks handles reservations for Lake Fausse Pointe State Park through a central system online or by phone at 1-833-609-0686. Sites can be booked up to 13 months to the day in advance, and reservations must be made at least 48 hours before arrival. A non-refundable transaction fee applies to every reservation, and the maximum stay is 15 consecutive days. A one-night deposit is required within 10 days of booking, and reservations made 10 to 13 months ahead require full payment within 30 days.
Private parks such as Bon Temps RV Park, Isle of Iberia RV Resort, Parkside RV Park, La Boulaie RV Park and Campground, and Maxie's Campground LLC book directly through their own websites or by phone. Weekends around Mardi Gras, Festival International in Lafayette, and fall festivals fill quickly, so reserve well ahead.
What to expect on the ground
Roads into Saint Martinville are flat two-lane highways, easy for larger rigs. Access to Lake Fausse Pointe State Park requires attention: the recommended route from town follows LA 96 to LA 679 to LA 3083 and then Levee Road for about eight miles. GPS routings through Baldwin or Charenton can send RVs onto gravel roads, and the park warns that RV travel trailers cannot cross the pontoon bridge on that alternate approach.
Cell service is limited to nonexistent inside the state park and thin in the surrounding swamp. Download maps before arrival. Expect alligators, snakes, and abundant birdlife near water, and pack strong insect repellent from spring through fall.
Sites at Lake Fausse Pointe are equipped with water and electric, with a dump station on site. Most private parks near town offer full hookups and laundry.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Saint Martinville, LA
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Saint Martinville, LA?
Good news: an RV rental in Saint Martinville is one of the most affordable ways to experience Cajun Country. On RVezy, travel trailers typically start around $90 to $150 per night, campervans range from $150 to $225, and Class C motorhomes average $175 to $275 per night. Spring (Mardi Gras and Festivals Acadiens season) and fall tend to be the busiest, so booking 6 to 8 weeks ahead locks in better rates. For a cheap RV rental in Saint Martinville, filter by travel trailers with delivery included, since you'll skip the cost of a tow vehicle. Pro tip: midweek bookings often save 15 to 20 percent versus weekends.
explorelouisiana.com/st-martinvilleDo I need a special license to rent an RV in Saint Martinville?
A regular driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in Saint Martinville, Louisiana. There's no Commercial Driver's License (CDL) or special RV endorsement required for any rig on RVezy, from a compact campervan to a 32-foot Class C motorhome. You'll need to be at least 25 years old as an approved driver, and RVezy verifies your ID securely through the platform during booking. Visiting from outside the United States? Bring your home country license plus an International Driving Permit (IDP), and you're set to explore the bayous, sugarcane fields, and Highway 31 along Bayou Teche.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat protection is included with my RVezy booking?
Every RVezy booking in Saint Martinville comes with a renter protection plan and 24/7 roadside assistance built in, so you can hit the road with real peace of mind. The protection plan covers physical damage to the RV during your trip, and you choose the coverage level that fits you best during checkout (not the host). It provides substantial financial protection for renters, especially helpful if you're navigating unfamiliar rural Louisiana roads or parking near Lake Martin. First time renting an RV? You'll appreciate knowing help is one phone call away, day or night.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat is RVezy's cancellation policy for Saint Martinville rentals?
Booking is low risk: RVezy sets the cancellation policy (not the individual host), and there's a grace-period window after booking where you can cancel for a full refund. After that, refund amounts depend on how far in advance you cancel. Because Saint Martinville sits in hurricane country during late summer, RVezy support is available if weather forces a change of plans, and host cancellations result in a full refund or travel credit for the guest. You'll see the exact terms on the booking page before you confirm, and RVezy support is available before, during, and after your trip if anything comes up.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on an RV trip from Saint Martinville?
Absolutely, pet-friendly RV rental in Saint Martinville is easy to find on RVezy. Just toggle the Pet-Friendly filter and you'll see plenty of campervan and motorhome options where Fido is welcome. Many local campgrounds love four-legged guests too: Lake Fausse Pointe State Park has miles of pet-friendly trails through cypress-tupelo swamp, and Poche's RV Park near Breaux Bridge welcomes pets at most sites. Always message the host through the listing to confirm pet fees and any size limits before you book. Pro tip: bring booties for hot pavement in summer, since Louisiana asphalt can reach 130°F on a July afternoon.
lastateparks.com/parks-historic-sites/lake-fausse-pointe-state-parkCan the RV be delivered to my campsite in Saint Martinville?
Yes, RV delivery in Saint Martinville is one of the most popular options on RVezy, especially for first timers. Many local hosts will tow the trailer or drive the motorhome directly to your campsite at Lake Fausse Pointe State Park, Poche's RV Park, or Cajun Palms RV Resort, then level it, hook up water and electric, and walk you through every system. You skip the stress of towing on Highway 90 or backing into a tight site. Use the Delivery filter on RVezy to see hosts offering this service. Delivery fees vary by distance, so message the host for an exact quote.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Saint%20Martinville%2C%20LouisianaHow far can I drive on an RV rental from Saint Martinville?
Plenty far for an unforgettable Louisiana road trip. Each host sets their own daily mileage allowance (commonly 100 to 150 miles per day), and some offer RV rental with unlimited mileage, which is great for bigger loops. From Saint Martinville, New Orleans is about 135 miles east on I-10, Baton Rouge is 60 miles north, Lafayette is just 20 minutes away, and Avery Island (home of Tabasco) is only 25 miles south. Heading further? Houston sits about 230 miles west. Check the mileage policy on the listing before booking, and message the host if you're planning extra distance, they're often flexible.
dotd.la.gov/Where are the best campgrounds near Saint Martinville?
You'll have great choices for RV camping in Saint Martinville and the surrounding Acadiana region. Lake Fausse Pointe State Park (about 20 minutes southeast) offers lakeside sites along a stunning cypress-lined lake with full hookups. Poche's RV Park & Fish-N-Camp in nearby Breaux Bridge is known for excellent catfish ponds and 30/50 amp sites. Cajun Palms RV Resort in Henderson features a lazy river and Cajun-themed cabins. Camp Margaritaville RV Resort Breaux Bridge offers a resort vibe with pools and dining. Reserve Louisiana state parks via the official Louisiana State Parks reservation system up to 13 months ahead.
lastateparks.com/parks-historic-sites/lake-fausse-pointe-state-parkWhen is the best time of year to take an RV trip from Saint Martinville?
The sweet spot for a Saint Martinville RV trip is mid-October through late April, when daytime highs hover between 65°F and 80°F and humidity finally backs off. Spring (February to April) is magical: azaleas bloom around the Evangeline Oak, crawfish season peaks, and festivals fill every weekend. Fall brings cooler nights perfect for a campfire at Lake Fausse Pointe. Summer (June to September) is hot and humid (90°F+ with afternoon thunderstorms) and is also peak hurricane season, so most locals avoid August trips. Pro tip: book a campervan rental in Saint Martinville for Festival International in late April in nearby Lafayette, it's one of the best free music festivals in the South.
weather.gov/lch/I've never driven an RV before. Will I be okay?
You're going to do great, and Saint Martinville is actually a wonderful place for first time renters because the surrounding roads are flat, traffic is light, and speed limits are modest. Every RVezy host provides a full walkthrough at pickup, covering driving, water and waste systems, leveling, hookups, and the propane stove. Many local hosts also offer delivery and setup so your first miles aren't behind the wheel of a 25 foot rig. If you're nervous about driving, start with a Class B campervan or small travel trailer. And remember: 24/7 roadside assistance is included with every booking through RVezy.
dotd.la.gov/What happens if I have a breakdown or issue on the road?
You're never alone out there. Every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance, so whether you've got a flat tire on Highway 31, a dead battery at Lake Martin, or you need a tow back toward Lafayette, help is one call away. The renter protection plan covers physical damage to the RV, removing a big chunk of financial worry. Your host is also a phone call or message away, and they often know the quirks of their rig better than anyone. Plus, RVezy's customer support team is available before, during, and after your trip. Pro tip: save the roadside number in your phone before you pick up the keys.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take my Saint Martinville RV rental to other states or across the border?
Most hosts happily allow interstate travel, so a Saint Martinville RV trip can easily reach Texas, Mississippi, Alabama, or even Florida's Gulf Coast. Popular RV road trip from Saint Martinville routes include the Creole Nature Trail (about 2.5 hours west), Gulf Shores AL (about 5 hours east), and the Natchez Trace Parkway (about 3 hours north). Travel into Mexico is not permitted on RVezy rentals because insurance and protection coverage doesn't extend across that border. Just message the host from the listing page before booking to confirm your route.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityHow much should I budget for fuel on a Saint Martinville RV trip?
Louisiana has some of the lowest gas prices in the country, which makes fueling an RV rental in Louisiana easier on the wallet than most states. Expect roughly $2.80 to $3.20 per gallon for regular unleaded around Saint Martinville (well below the U.S. average). Class B campervans average 18 to 22 MPG, Class C motorhomes get 8 to 12 MPG, and travel trailers depend on your tow vehicle. For a 4 day trip with 400 miles of driving in a Class C, plan on roughly $120 to $160 in fuel. Pro tip: Murphy USA stations near I-10 in Lafayette and Breaux Bridge are usually a few cents cheaper than gas stations downtown.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far in advance should I book a campground near Saint Martinville?
For Louisiana state parks like Lake Fausse Pointe and Chicot State Park, you can reserve campsites up to 13 months in advance through the official Louisiana State Parks reservation system, and weekends from March through May book up fast thanks to crawfish boils and festival season. Private parks like Poche's RV Park and Cajun Palms typically book 2 to 4 weeks ahead, longer for Festival International (late April) or Breaux Bridge Crawfish Festival (first weekend of May). Pro tip: if everything's full in Saint Martinville, look at Henderson or New Iberia, both within 25 minutes and often have last-minute openings.
lastateparks.com/What are the driving conditions like around Saint Martinville?
Driving an RV in Saint Martinville is refreshingly easy compared to bigger metros. The terrain is flat, elevations sit just 20 feet above sea level, and the main routes (Highway 31, Highway 96, and I-10 to the north) are wide and RV friendly. Watch for narrow shoulders on rural bayou roads, occasional sugarcane trucks during fall harvest (October to December), and sudden afternoon thunderstorms in summer that can drop visibility fast. The historic downtown around the Evangeline Oak has tight turns and overhanging branches, so park at the visitor lot and walk in. Hurricane season runs June through November, so check the National Weather Service forecast before traveling.
weather.gov/lch/What amenities will I find at campgrounds near Saint Martinville?
Most campgrounds in the Saint Martinville area come well equipped. Expect 30 and 50 amp electric, water hookups, sewer connections (full hookups at Poche's and Cajun Palms), bathhouses, laundry, and Wi-Fi in many private parks. Dump stations are available at Lake Fausse Pointe State Park and most private parks for a small fee. Potable water fill is standard. Many local parks include extras like fishing ponds, pools, and pavilions for boudin and crawfish boils. Pro tip: bring a water pressure regulator, as some older Acadiana parks have high line pressure that can stress RV plumbing.
lastateparks.com/parks-historic-sites/lake-fausse-pointe-state-parkWhat's included inside a typical RV rental in Saint Martinville?
Your motorhome rental in Saint Martinville comes well stocked for a comfortable Louisiana getaway. Expect real beds (a queen is standard, with bunk options on family rigs), a full kitchen with fridge, propane stove, microwave, and sink, an indoor bathroom with shower and toilet, climate control with roof AC and a furnace, dining seating with seatbelts, and a TV in most units. Many hosts include outdoor camp chairs, a coffee maker, and basic kitchenware. Generators, Wi-Fi hotspots, and solar are common add-ons. Pro tip: ask your host for a mosquito-proof outdoor mat and citronella, you'll want both when you're parked near the bayou.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Saint%20Martinville%2C%20LouisianaWhat add-ons and options can I choose for my Saint Martinville rental?
RVezy hosts in Saint Martinville offer a long menu of useful add-ons to make your trip easier. Popular extras include linen and towel packages, kitchen kits, portable generators, bike racks, outdoor grills, and folding chairs. Pickup and dropoff happen at the host's address, but most hosts offer delivery and setup to local campgrounds like Lake Fausse Pointe or Poche's RV Park for a flat fee. Mileage policies vary: many hosts include 100 to 150 free miles per day with extra miles charged per mile, and some offer unlimited mileage packages. Check the listing's Add-ons section for exact pricing.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Saint%20Martinville%2C%20LouisianaHow does payment and the security deposit work on RVezy?
Payment is simple and secure: you pay through RVezy with a credit card during booking, never directly to the host, which protects both sides. A refundable security deposit is held separately from your booking payment, and the exact amount is shown on the listing before you confirm. After your Saint Martinville rental returns in good shape, the deposit is released back to you. To avoid issues, do a thorough walkthrough video at pickup and dropoff, follow the host's mileage and generator policies, and dump tanks before return. Pro tip: keep all fuel and dump-station receipts, they're handy if questions ever come up.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksWhat are the best road trip destinations from Saint Martinville?
You're sitting in one of the most scenic launchpads in the South. Top picks for an RV road trip from Saint Martinville include New Orleans (about 135 miles east, around 2.5 hours via I-10) for jazz and the French Quarter; Avery Island (about 25 miles south) for the Tabasco factory and Jungle Gardens; the Creole Nature Trail and Gulf beaches near Lake Charles (about 110 miles west); Natchez, Mississippi (about 180 miles north); and Atchafalaya Basin swamp tours in Henderson (just 20 miles north). Insider tip: drive the Bayou Teche Byway between Saint Martinville and Franklin on Highway 182 for moss-draped oaks and antebellum homes most tourists never see.
