Really nice park on lake Pontchartrain with an actual beach. It has walking and biking trails, and campgrounds. It cost us $6 to enter. Full review by MALENURSERN
I have two very curious elementary school aged boys and will be camping at Fontainebleau State Park in late March/Early April. How nervous do I need to be about alligators? Is it ok to let them explore as long as they stay away from the marshy areas?
A:
Kelly: There are aligators in the mashy areas and I have seen a large one near the beach area a couple years ago. However, I have not heard of any bad alligator encounters in the park …

My wife is a mosquito magnet and will veto this vacation if there are too many biting bugs in June. Any information you can provide will be a huge help. Thank you for your time!

I think that there will be mosquitos during the summer months. I recommend calling the park staff. I found them to be very friendly and helpful. I grew up in New Orleans and while there was mosquito abatement we had to wear insect repellent. Also consider the temperature in June. How hot and humid it may be. The cabins over the water are great- right on the lake.I am very sensitive to incest bites so I would recommend an insect repellent be used.
