Lazy J Campground

**Access Overview**
Lazy J Campground offers a concrete boat ramp on the east bank of the Pearl River Navigational Canal in St. Tammany Parish. This is a privately owned facility that serves as a convenient launch point for paddlers and boaters looking to access the canal system. From the ramp, paddlers can head right into the barge canal and paddle approximately half a mile to Lock 1, located off Highway 41.

**Nearby Features & Recreation**
The location provides excellent access to the Pearl River system, which features three locks and dams creating distinct pool areas popular for day-use boating, fishing, and hunting. Nearby, the Bogue Chitto National Wildlife Refuge straddles the Louisiana-Mississippi border along the Pearl River, offering scenic paddling opportunities. For boaters needing fuel or additional services, SeaBrook Harbor marina is conveniently located next door on the Navigational Canal with a full-service facility, fuel dock, mechanics, and marine supplies.

**Campground Amenities**
Beyond the boat ramp, Lazy J Campground is a 140-acre private facility with a 75-acre private lake designated as a no-wake zone, making it suitable for paddlers and those seeking calm water. The campground offers seasonal and monthly sites along with cabins, fish cleaning stations, two pools, and an on-site restaurant, making it a good base for extended water recreation trips.
