Lafayette Place Comments & Reviews
Visited Lafayette Place Campground lately? We'd love to hear about your adventure. Did you find us useful? Did we forget something? Anything our community should know before heading out to Lafayette Place?
Campsite #22 was TINY. Felt like I was camping in someone’s driveway instead of in a wooded camp site. Sites are on top of each other. Really no privacy at ALL. LOTS of screaming kids playing and running around us from all sides. No peace and quiet. Noise from highway, as well. Would not recommend if you’re looking for peace & quiet.
