One of the best not-so-hidden gems in NWLA. Cypress Black Bayou Recreation Area has all the things locals like to complain about not having. They have both primitive and RV camping, they have wide open fields, beautiful forest areas, nature trails, and even a sandy beach. There's a tiny zoo with peacocks wandering around and an enclosed area with (what I hope) are rescue & release deer. Plenty of shade areas, boat launches, cook tops, picnic tables, and nets for games like volleyball. There is a small entrance fee based on the number of people you have with you. If you get a day pass I believe it's $5 per person, or you can get an annual pass for I believe $25. It's a wonderful local gem.

I spent a lot of time at this park a long time ago, and when I was back in town on a windy gloomy day I wanted to show the wildlife area and museum to my Wife and young child. To begin the lady at the entrance was rude and stated the price for entry was $20. This price seems unreasonable for a quick trip thru the park. Also, after looking it up the park says it is $5 per person so I'm not sure where the extra $5 came from.

Was pretty upset when my daughter and I got to the park at 4:30 on a Friday only to be told they stopped selling day passes at 4pm. The website says nothing about that what so ever, it just states that the days and times they are opened and the times they close. Entry fee is 5$ and they close the entrance gate 15 minutes prior to closing time. The lady was rude and I'm so upset because I had been planning to come and play volleyball with my child after she got out of school. The fact that they refuse entry at 4pm on Friday, when the site specifically states they lose at 6:30 is, outrageous and stupid.

They should really put more info up to make it more accessible.
I came here to explore the area but you need to purchase a day pass, there were no prices marked and as you can see in the photo they don’t update their hours.
Could be cool but should be better maintained

The beach was COVERED in dog feces! We had to move two different times to another location due to the HEAVY presence of feces covering the shore!
I’m not talking about one or two spots, I literally mean HUNDREDS of piles!!!!!!!!!

No tent camping anymore

Do not camp or try to have a family trip here. They only give you three car passes per camp spot. The day passes are only valid from 8-am to 4:30-pm. They do not have tent camping anymore and the prices are outrageous. They won’t let you bring your camper in after 4:30 pm. It is no longer a nice place. They do not tell you this before planning a trip.

This is a very nice campground! We had a pull-thru site on the lake. The only issue is that the utilities are on the wrong side...not sure why the pull-thru sites are set up that way because the back-in sites are set up the right way. We were able to make it work.
The lake views are beautiful and there is a LOT of room between sites. Each site has it's own trash can (which is awesome).
We'll definetly be back!

What the heck kind of recreation area opens at 8 o’clock in the morning an hour after sunrise

Well-maintained, peaceful park. Sites may require some leveling and hookups may be a little farther away than you're used to, but we love it here!

We stayed in one of the cabins. It was clean, comfortable, affordable, and quiet. In other words, it was exactly what we wanted. Thank you.
