    Good and quiet

    It was nice to get out in a natural setting. I was surprised at how much wildlife I saw in a short time. The boardwalks are a nice way to get back in the area. Saw some nice Cypress trees in the swamp.

    I recently ran across The Bogue Chitto National Wildlife Nature Walk. It is right off of Hwy 59, between Slidell La and Picayune, MS. When you first drive in you will see a lake, but follow road to left and park at the very end....More

    Went here after hearing so much about the Cabins they had for rent after being remodeled after Hurricane Katrina.

    This is one of the most beautiful natural areas in the South Louisiana area. Foot trails and the cabins are just wonderful. The Cabins are rented first come first served or reserved. We did not stay in a cabin this was a one day look...More

    Love the Boardwalk Area

    The section off Hwy I-59 exit 11 (Pearl River Turnaround,) has been a Spring and Summertime favorite of mine since discovering it just a few years ago. The boardwalk there was recently extended, allowing for greater access through the area. Great for wildlife and for...More

    Goggle "tubing in Bogue Chitto" we wore bathing suits and shorts. It's really fun if the water is up, which it is now for sure. I've been several times.
