St. Louis Bay, Mississippi – Lake LaCroix RV Resort has expanded its accommodations with the recent introduction of glamping tents, marking a new phase in the resort’s commitment to offering diverse and elevated outdoor experiences. The newly launched glamping option provides guests a comfortable, semi-luxury stay that blends the rustic charm of camping with the amenities typically associated with more traditional lodging. This development adds to the resort’s appeal among a wider audience of travelers, including those who prefer comfort without compromising their connection to nature.
The glamping tents, now available at Lake LaCroix RV Resort, are situated near the lakeside and offer panoramic views of the surrounding scenery. Each tent spans approximately 200 square feet and is designed to comfortably accommodate families or groups with one queen-size bed, two twin beds, and one twin trundle. In addition to sleeping arrangements, the tents include a sitting area, coffee maker, mini fridge, air conditioning and heating, ensuring guests can enjoy their stay year-round. Linens and towels are provided, and each tent also includes a private outdoor porch, fire pit, and picnic table for a complete outdoor living experience.
Located just a short walk from the bathhouse, these glamping accommodations provide convenient access to essential facilities while maintaining a sense of privacy and seclusion. The tents have been thoughtfully designed to serve the needs of both seasoned campers and first-time outdoor travelers looking for a more accessible way to enjoy the Mississippi Gulf Coast. With nightly rates starting at $75, this new lodging option introduces an affordable alternative for families and couples who want to experience the outdoors without forgoing convenience.
According to a spokesperson for Lake LaCroix RV Resort, the introduction of the glamping tents is part of a broader strategy to enhance the resort’s appeal and respond to the evolving preferences of today’s travelers. "In recent years, there has been a clear trend toward more personalized and comfortable camping experiences. These glamping tents offer a solution for those who want to enjoy the outdoors while still having access to basic creature comforts. It is a way to bring more people into the RV resort experience, even if they do not own an RV," the spokesperson said.
The expansion is expected to attract visitors from neighboring states, including Louisiana, Alabama, Florida, and Georgia, many are already drawn to the Mississippi Gulf Coast for its natural beauty and recreational activities. By adding glamping accommodations, Lake LaCroix RV Resort continues to support the growth of tourism in St. Louis Bay and create additional reasons for travelers to choose the area for weekend escapes or longer vacations.
Launching the glamping tents aligns with the resort’s larger commitment to environmental stewardship and community integration. Built with minimal impact to the land, the glamping units were positioned and constructed in ways that preserve natural sightlines and protect the native flora. This lodging style complements the resort’s existing RV infrastructure while introducing a new type of experience to the campground, one that appeals to nature lovers seeking tranquility without sacrificing comfort.
The resort’s management also notes that the glamping tents serve as an ideal entry point for those curious about camping but hesitant to invest in gear or unfamiliar with RV travel. By offering fully equipped spaces requiring no setup from the guest, Lake LaCroix RV Resort has opened the door to a demographic interested in camping in a more approachable format. In turn, this expands the resort’s audience while supporting inclusivity in outdoor recreation.
With demand for unique travel experiences rising, the new glamping tents are expected to be especially popular during peak travel seasons and holiday weekends. The resort encourages early bookings, particularly for larger groups and families, as capacity is limited and interest has been growing steadily since the accommodations became available. The site’s natural lakeside setting, combined with the thoughtful design of the glamping area, offers a compelling alternative to both standard campgrounds and traditional hotel stays.
In addition to the glamping tents, Lake LaCroix RV Resort continues to offer its full suite of RV accommodations and resort amenities. Guests staying in the glamping area can still access all communal spaces, including the pool, clubhouse, playground, fishing docks, and walking trails. This ensures a unified guest experience while catering to travel preferences and lodging needs.
The addition of glamping tents strengthens the resort’s offering and contributes to the larger narrative of Mississippi’s growing reputation as a destination for outdoor recreation and family-friendly tourism. As the travel landscape shifts toward more flexible and experiential accommodations, developments such as these position Lake LaCroix RV Resort as a leader in adapting to emerging trends and visitor expectations.
Reservations for the glamping tents are currently open, with bookings available through the resort’s direct booking system. The resort evaluates guest feedback to ensure that all new offerings meet its high comfort, cleanliness, and hospitality standards. Depending on demand and seasonal interest, plans may include additional glamping options or enhancements to the existing setup.
As Lake LaCroix RV Resort expands its lodging portfolio, the focus remains on providing a welcoming environment that reflects the values of the local community while meeting the needs of modern travelers. With the glamping tents now open, guests have yet another way to enjoy the serene beauty of St. Louis Bay in comfort and style.
