The Romantic Louisiana Getaway That’s Perfect For A Chilly Weekend
Here at Only In Louisiana, we’ve covered dozens of awesome getaways, ranging from haunted bed and breakfasts to treetop Airbnbs. If you’re looking for a place to spend a romantic getaway, you can’t go wrong with a cabin rental at Chicot State Park.
During these uncertain times, please keep safety in mind and consider adding destinations to your bucket list to visit at a later date.
Clocking in at 6,400 acres, it’s the largest state park in the state, and is unique in that it’s also home to the Louisiana State Arboretum, the oldest state-supported arboretum in the United States.
Tons of wildlife, ample fishing opportunities, and some of the most stunning scenery in the state... sounds dreamy, right?
Primitive campsites and RV hook-ups are standard, but if you're looking for something in-between, consider renting one of their Tentrr sites, where you can glamp in style.
The main trail completely encircles the lake and offers some truly enchanting views of the swamps and marsh you're surrounded by.
Kayaking is a great way to see the lake from an entirely new perspective. The kayak trail is well marked, just keep in mind that bigger boats are allowed on the lake, so be careful if you're crossing from one side to the others.
On a chilly evening, there's just nothing better.
