Hi all. We are making our first trip to The Fort the week before Thanksgiving. We have always stayed at hotels on property, but recently bought a travel trailer and are super excited to finally get to camp at The Fort. I've looked around and read some other threads that asked this, but haven't made a decision on what is best for us regarding the drive down.
We live close to Baton Rouge, so we are looking for an overnight to split the drive. I've seen good things about Defuniak, Big Oak, and Perry. Perry would be my choice, I find the traffic on I-75 to be horrible. But I worry it's too far for the first leg of the trip, it's over 500 miles.
Has anyone done this? Do you have any other recommendations?
Oh and feel free to throw in your favorite Premium Loop, just for science ; ) We are spending 8 nights, my parents will be there for 6. Will we be able to request sites next to each other? If so, do we do this in advance, or once we arrive?
Thanks so much!
