Campgrounds near Timberlane
Timberlane sits on the West Bank of the Mississippi River in unincorporated Jefferson Parish, just south of New Orleans. The area is convenient for city-focused RV trips while offering quieter overnight surroundings than downtown parks, with the French Quarter reachable in roughly 20 minutes by car or via the Algiers ferry.
The closest developed camping is Bayou Segnette State Park in Westwego, a nearly 700-acre park where woodlands meet marsh at the edge of a cypress swamp. It sits about a 15-minute drive from downtown New Orleans and offers 98 improved campsites with water and electric hookups plus 12 waterfront cabins. Across the river, St Bernard State Park in Braithwaite provides a quieter wooded alternative about 18 miles from the French Quarter, with 51 water-and-electric sites arranged around man-made lagoons.
For RV renters who want to be closer to Bourbon Street, French Quarter RV Resort places 52 paved back-in sites near downtown. Riverboat Travel Park and Jude Travel Park of New Orleans offer additional private RV options on the metro fringe.
Things to do near Timberlane
The main draw is New Orleans itself: the French Quarter, Garden District, Frenchmen Street music venues, the National WWII Museum, Jackson Square and Audubon Zoo are all within a short drive or a ferry ride across the river.
Outdoors, Bayou Segnette State Park offers boating, canoeing, fishing for bass, catfish, bream, redfish and trout, a 2.8-mile nature trail, a seasonal wave pool, playgrounds and a nature center. Alligators, wading birds and other wetland wildlife are commonly spotted from the trails and boat launch. The nearby Barataria Preserve unit of Jean Lafitte National Historical Park adds boardwalks through cypress swamp.
St Bernard State Park has a nature trail across a lagoon, a seasonal water playground, picnic pavilions, and easy access to Chalmette Battlefield, where the Battle of New Orleans was fought.

How to book
Louisiana state parks, including Bayou Segnette and St Bernard, are reserved through the state's central reservation system online or by calling 1-833-609-0686. Campsites and cabins can be booked up to 13 months in advance, and reservations must be made at least 48 hours before arrival. A non-refundable transaction fee applies to each reservation, and a first-night deposit is required within ten days.
Maximum stay at a Louisiana state park is 15 consecutive days, and weekend reservations require a two-night minimum. Cancellations 15 or more days before arrival within the nine-month window incur a small per-facility fee; inside 14 days, the fee is one day's use.
Private parks such as French Quarter RV Resort, Riverboat Travel Park and Jude Travel Park of New Orleans take reservations directly through their own websites or phone lines, with festival weekends often booking out months ahead.
What to expect
State park sites near Timberlane offer water and 30/50-amp electric hookups; sewer is handled at a central dump station rather than at the site. Bayou Segnette accepts rigs up to about 50 feet on level pads with fire rings and picnic tables, and free laundry is available on site. St Bernard fits a range of rig sizes, with some tighter back-in sites near the front of the loop. French Quarter RV Resort offers 52 paved back-in sites roughly 30 feet wide and 60 feet deep, with full hookups.
Expect humidity, mosquitoes and other biting insects, especially in warm months and after rain; strong repellent is essential. Alligators are present in the marshes, so keep children and pets close to camp.
