Fontainebleau State Park in Louisiana was created on the site of a former sugar plantation. It sits on the northern shore of Lake Pontchartrain within sight of the causeway across the lake to New Orleans. The park has a nice day use area with a beach. Near the visitor center, the ruins of the old sugar mill can be seen.
There many live oaks in the park. Here are two examples. Above, this tree is about a hundred feet across; branches down to the ground. The second photo below gives you an idea of the twisted, gnarly structure that gives these trees strength.
The Tammany trail, a 31 mile rails to trails, runs through the park. Sadly the weather wasn’t conducive to biking.
The campground was quiet and comfortable with a considerable population of somewhat tame deer running through during the evening hours. We had no problems with bad sites or low branches. We are also in a 9 1/2 foot high class B van. We walked through both parts of the campground and concluded that individual site choice is more important than old or new. YMMV.
