We wrap up our Tourist in Your Own state series this week with a focus on getting outdoors.
Louisiana is rightfully known as sportsman’s paradise and Glamping makes a perfect complement to all of those outdoor activities. One of our favorite spots to take it all in is the Toledo Bend Area. It’s trophy lake, top-notch golf resort, and other outdoor adventures make it a great spot for Glamping.

This week we continue our Glamping in your own State Series with Part III; Glamping and Festivals! Our home state has lots of festivals, over 400 a year, and visiting them can be a lot of fun.

We recommend both as well as the amazing Festival section of the Louisiana Travel Website. See our s ..read more

One campground is the Cypress Lake RV Resort in Berwick, LA. It had a great pool, fun outdoor water activities on its lake, numerous other local attractions, and a GirlDad Mom Approved laundry facility! Check out the episode for more info an ..read more

Sometimes we get caught up in exploring as Glampers and we can overlook some of the jewels near our own home. We’ll be starting a series on Glamping in your own State this week with some of these hidden jewels we’ve found in our home state of Louisiana!
This week we’ll talk about Poverty Point. Poverty Point was a great place for us to extend our Glamping into a normal weekend. We enjoyed the park as well as some of the nearby amenities. Along the way we learned quite a bit about this ancient site in our own state that we’d never been to.
