The amount of lack of consideration for fellow campers is horrendous. There is no one on site to call to ask for reinforcements of the rules. It's currently midnight and I hear people singing across the park. Our neighbors have finally gone to bed or moved to another campsite. The speed of golf carts and those of little kids driving them is crazy. This is a great place if you want to party but if you are looking for quiet peaceful decompression DON'T come here. You'll be even more stressed out.

On my most recent trip to Lake Charles, we were trying to expand our horizons beyond the casinos…read moreand get a good dose of nature too. After a late lunch, we made our way to Lake Charles Veteran's Memorial Park. There are several lots close to the park so parking shouldn't be an issue. After parking, we discovered that there are actually several parks adjacent to each other including Bord du Lac Park and the Lakefront Promenade. We ended up walking through all of them. What stands out about the Veteran's Memorial Park is the statues commemorating veterans. And it's more than that! You even have a full-size tank so there are plenty of photo opps. I wanted to climb on top of the tank but there was a sign saying that wasn't allowed so I was good. It's a small park but one that's worth checking out along with the others in the area.

This Park is set right next to the Lake Charles Lake, if that makes sense. There is a long brick walkway right along the water, very scenic. I got in a few runs here while I was visiting.

Cane River Lake was perfect for kayaking, paddle boarding and hydro biking. It was so calm. They don't have a computerized system for registering guests nor did they have a separate person making snowballs, so when they were really busy, the line got backed up. I think there are only a couple or a few hydrobikes and I think only a couple mirage oasis boats. On the first day, my husband and daughter rented 2 hydrobikes and went out on the water for an hour. They loved those and had fun. For the last day we were there, my husband and I went out on the mirage oasis (for 2) and my daughter went paddle boarding for the first time. We initially went out for 1-hour, but they were close to shutdown time, so we added another 1/2 hour. Prices range for $15-25 per half to 1-hour. On the last day, it was nice on the river because there was a bit of an overcast, so the sun wasn't beating down on us and it wasn't too hot either. The staff was really nice, too! If you want some yummy snowballs... they have a lot of yummy flavors. When they're busy, they should have a separate line for snowballs and rentals. Overall, my family had a great experience!
