Customer Reviews
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An absolute gem of an experience! I’ve now attended two of Bayou Glamping’s Moonlight Kayaking events, and both were simply outstanding! These aren’t rushed or strenuous trips, though some previous kayaking experience is recommended as it is a few hours of paddling — they’re relaxed, peaceful paddles that give you a chance to slow down, breathe, and really be present in the beauty around you. Watching the moonlight dance on the water while gliding over the lake is pure magic. The team at Bayou Glamping makes everything so easy and welcoming — from the friendly guides to the well-organized setup. It’s the perfect way to spend a couple of hours reconnecting with nature and yourself. I can’t recommend it enough! I’m a local but I still plan to try out the glamping experience too!
Ya'll, I took a timeout with family, when I tell you this is the boom 💥 👌 💯. I love love love the outdoors, if you want a peaceful away from the city this is one of the best places to bring ya bestie to relax. This my new hang out...... The sitting around the fire 🔥 pit telling lies is the boom 💥, then try to karaoke 🎤 more lies and sing; then play games and forget time don't wait for nobody this was so awesome but you know fun has to end. This place was so great for me. ENJOYED 😉
Kayaking was a blast! We enjoyed everyone and everything. We also felt comfortable and welcomed from the time we got there. My partner was kind of nervous, but after talking with the leaders and getting out on the water. All was well!!! This was a great experience being a first timer we were given instructions and training before the event and was checked on throughout the tour! I highly recommend checking in with Bayou Glamping. You won’t regret it!
Even though I live just about 20 minutes away, this was the perfect little getaway! The tent was beautiful and felt so well put together. The beds were super comfortable, which made the whole experience feel more like a luxury retreat than camping. We even went kayaking, and it ended up being such a fun part of the trip. It was a little humid during our stay, so I’d recommend bringing a fan if you’re staying during a muggy stretch, but honestly, I loved every minute of it. Such a unique spot—I’d definitely stay again!
We just had the most amazing weekend! We made a very last minute decision to get away for a couple of nights. We live in the next town over, yet it felt like we had escaped to somewhere far, far away. Everything was absolutely perfect! From the hug that greeted me from Ebony to the beautifully appointed tent to the fire pit, the kayaks, the seclusion - everything was absolutely perfect! Don’t hesitate to book a stay here!
