Nice campground in the Kisatchie National Forest near Minden. Minden is the closed town for shopping and has the typical fast food outlets. There is a swim beach, fishing pier, and boat ramp within the campground. Camp host onsite too. Showers are really dated but usable and the toilets are flush. OTA TV has about 20 channels some duplicate. 14 day stay.

Beautiful place. Great, safe swimming area! Nice campsites.
There were No trail maps available so it was difficult to find the trails or to orient where you were or where they ran. Also, trails were in bad shape, mostly over grown with bridges out and trees laying across the trail in several places.

This adventure was truly a home away from home event. The A/C unit failed in my house and we picked one of the cleanest, friendliest campgrounds around to set up temporary living quarters
