Lafayette is our favorite city or town in LA.

Go to Lake Charles, LA. The L’Auberge du Lac Casino has THE best buffet that I have ever seen. So much delicious food. We stayed at the Cypress RV park in Iowa LA, just a short drive from St Charles.
Darn, I am getting hungry just thinking about that buffet.

Well, New Orleans is not Cajun country for sure. But I second the recommendation for Lafayette. Spent two winters there and am still trying to take of the weight I gained. Truly "Gods Country".

Check out Cajun Palms RV Park which is 15 miles east of Lafayette on I-10. Take the Henderson exit (#115) and go north about 3/4 mile and its on the right. There web site is www.cajunpalms.com All cement, LARGE pool Large hot tub and it's gated. A site on the lake is about $35.00/night. Crawfish Town is right next stoor. Enjoy yourself where ever you stay.
