North Toledo Bend State Park

North Toledo Bend State Park is situated on a peninsula which extends into the reservoir at the mouth of Bayou San Miguel. The land consists of rolling uplands and interconnected ravines and valleys. The park site lies in a region of major lumbering activity, with a mixed pine and hardwood forest covering most of the park.

A spacious and attractive Visitor Center complex contributes to the park's year-round versatility and appeal. In the main building is a meeting room which can be reserved for group functions. Also within the complex is an Olympic size swimming pool and a bathhouse. A camping supply store and laundry complete the complex and provide visitors with all the necessities and extras that might be needed during a long or short stay in the park
Adjacent to the visitor center complex is the picnic area, where picnic sites, shelters and a restroom are nestled among the pines.

Water sports, of course, are an important part of the recreation opportunities available at North Toledo Bend. A boat launch area, featuring a spacious ramp, large parking lot, and fish cleaning station, provides access to the reservoir. Organizations associated with the Toledo Bend Reservoir host numerous fishing competitions which attract fishermen from around the country.

Fishing, swimming, boating, hiking, picnicking, and relaxing - all this and more are yours to enjoy at North Toledo Bend State Park.
