Saddle Bayou Campground
Saddle Bayou Campground
Saddle Bayou Camp is a primitive, free dispersed camping area within Kisatchie National Forest featuring approximately 15 undeveloped sites in a bottomland hardwood setting, with vault toilets available but no potable water.
Popular with hunters during hunting season and those seeking quiet forest exploration, the campground offers no designated campsites—visitors simply find a suitable spot to pitch a tent.
Note that the entrance sign was reported down as of 2019, making the location difficult to identify; contact the Catahoula Ranger District at 318-765-3554 for current conditions before visiting.
