Toledo Bend MWR, Florien, LA

May 28 - 30, 2021 This is our second military campground.  The spots were so small that some RV's couldn't back in.  The grandkids came with us.  But, we had a little boy that would not leave our campground and truly ruined the experience for us.  The campground was well kept, but the bathrooms left something to be desired.  There was a logging competition going on Saturday, and that was interesting.  The lake and beach were great with a bounce pillow and a great playground.  We were able to walk with the grandkids and get ice cream and look at the boats.  I don't know if I'd go back because of the closeness of the sites.

May 8 - 10, 2021 Louisiana has beautiful state parks.  This is our second, and I highly recommend it .  It is a huge park where you can bring your horses, ride bikes on trails, or just hike.  We took a horse trail ride and then got snow cones.  There are two sections in which to park your camper.  We stayed in the upper portion. The lower portion is near the water and is more swampy.  The campsites are very large and once again, I'd like to go back.  Sites to visit are the Global Wildlife Center where you can take a tour seeing giraffes, gazelles, deer, and other animals.
