How to Camp During a Halloween Weekend and Still Trick-or-Treat at Home!

Who says you have to choose between a fall camping getaway and your favorite Halloween traditions? At Camp Margaritaville Breaux Bridge, you can pack your costumes, decorate your campsite, and enjoy a weekend full of Halloween fun without giving up trick-or-treating at home. From park-wide trick-or-treating and costume contests, to pumpkin fun for younger campers and haunted experiences for those who love a scare, Halloween camping brings even more excitement to an autumn getaway in Louisiana. The best part? You don't have to spend Halloween night at the campground to join the fun. Pick a weekend that works for your family, celebrate at our Louisiana camping resort, and still make it home for your neighborhood's Halloween festivities!

Choose From 3 Halloween Weekends

One of the biggest advantages of celebrating Halloween at Lake Wapusun RV Resort is that the fun isn't limited to one night. Our Halloween Weekends run from October 16 through November 1, giving families 3 weekends to fit a Halloween camping trip into their fall plans. Instead of trying to squeeze everything into October 31, you can choose a weekend earlier in the season for your getaway and save Halloween night for traditions at home. It's an easy way to extend the celebration and give the kids even more opportunities to wear their costumes. If you've been searching for campgrounds with Halloween events, Camp Margaritaville Breaux Bridge makes it easy to turn an ordinary fall weekend into a full family Halloween adventure. Plus, with RV sites and cabins available, families can choose the camping experience that works best for them!

Go Trick-or-Treating Throughout the Park

Don't forget the candy buckets! Park-wide trick-or-treating brings one of the most beloved Halloween traditions right to our campground near Baton Rouge. Kids can dress up in their favorite costumes and make their way around the park collecting treats. There's something extra special about Halloween trick-or-treating while surrounded by decorated campsites, fellow campers, and all the excitement of a fall weekend away. For families looking for classic Halloween activities for kids, it's a chance to enjoy the tradition they already love in a completely different setting. Because you can visit before Halloween night, the kids can go trick-or-treating for Halloween twice in one season: once at our campground, and again at home!

Dress Up, Decorate, and Win Prizes

Halloween isn't complete without a little friendly competition. During Halloween Weekends, campers can show off their creativity with our Costume Contest and Site Decorating Contest. Pack your family's best costumes and see who can create the most memorable Halloween look. Then, bring the spooky spirit back to your campsite or cabin with decorations of your own! Whether you go creepy, funny, or completely over the top, decorating your space is a fun way to make your Halloween camping trip feel even more festive. It’s one of the many ways camping in Louisiana gets a spooky twist during the fall season. Campers can also transform their ride for the Golf Cart Decorating Contest, adding another opportunity to get creative and join in the park-wide Halloween spirit. With prizes on the line - hello camp credit! - you might just head home with more than candy and Halloween memories!

Find Halloween Fun for Every Age

One of the best parts of a family Halloween getaway is finding activities everyone can enjoy. At Camp Margaritaville Breaux Bridge, Halloween Weekends offer a mix of festive fun and spooky thrills, so younger kids, older kids, teens, and adults can all find something to look forward to! Little campers can enjoy more lighthearted seasonal fun, including the Magic Pumpkin Patch, while families can make memories together with costumes, trick-or-treating, and decorating. For older kids and teens who are ready for something a little scarier, the Haunted House adds some thrills and chills to the weekend. That variety is part of what makes Camp Margaritaville Breaux Bridge one of the best family campgrounds in Louisiana for a fall getaway. Families don't have to plan separate activities for every age group because there are Halloween experiences for everyone to enjoy.
