French Quarter RV Resort (FQRV)

Expensive but the only real choice in the area. The resort is in a great location and is secure so it is worth the money..

This is the most expensive RV Park that I have ever stayed at, but you get a lot for your money. First and foremost is the proximity to the French Quarter. It was about a 10 minute walk to get to the French Quarter. Check in was a breeze, the staff met me at the gate and provided my spot number. They asked me to come in and check in after I was settled in my spot. The check in was a quick review of the facility and then a discussion of all the places to visit in the French Quarter. The grounds are beautifully done. Each site has a large pad made of pavers that easily fit an RV and a vehicle along side. There is also a small patch of grass. Overall, there is not a lot of grass for dogs, but just outside the gate, there is a park with a large grass area. The restrooms are set up as suites. There are four and each one has a sink, toilet and shower. They are next to the pool and hot tub. There is also an ice machine outside (24 hour access) which is nice in the New Orleans heat.

Our first time there and we enjoyed our stay. Had our ten year old grandson with us and the staff was very willing to answer our questions and help our stay to be successful. We will be back again. Very clean and well managed. Right in the French Quarter.

Really a nice setup, however, the WiFi is really confined to the club house unless you have some sort of WiFi device that pulls signals in greater. Staff was not really friendly, just efficient. Other than that, I was attending a conference in NO and it worked really well for being where the action is. To say they are expensive--well, about the most expensive place I've ever stayed!

Again, you get what you pay for. This place is astronomically priced at $108, but given the options in New Orleans, worth the $. The cost keeps out the riff-raff (sorry, riff-raff… but I doubt you know who you are), and affords a true resort in the city. The place is not huge, but it is beautiful. Main building looks very NOLA, all brick and ironwork. The drives and spaces are all patterned brick, cobblestone and grass, lots of places for hot-paws to walk, large sites (I paced one pad at 48’), with double wide for your toad or all the set up you would like. They are all back in, so if you’ve not learned to back your rig yet, NOLA is not the place for you. Great hook ups (even those are pretty pedestals), ground level dump access (no walking that line… one of my peeves), the best cable I’ve encountered in all my travels, but no Wi-Fi except in the office. They had band-sucker issues and are working on a solution. They do have extra amenities like an ice machine, a lovely air conditioned Lobby, a very well equipped and beautiful computer room/office for guests, and beautiful screened gazebos in some of the sites. There is a lovely pool in a French Quarter type courtyard feel, with cascade jacuzzi and a very well equipped work out room, as well as a small laundry. The office is helpful and professional, booking tours and such, and called me when a package I had ordered was delivered. The main plus of this place is, of course, the location; which is what you’re paying for. It is a very short walk to the Hop on Hop Off bus terminal (3 minutes; basically across a parking lot), which takes you all over the city. It is a very manageable walk (15 minutes) to downtown, Bourbon Street, the Garden District, or the river. Right outside the gate is an inner-city park with loads of grass and a nice walk, if you’re comfortable with inner city parks. Caught a great basketball game with some of the local kids, and discovered the stable area right across the park where the city Carriage Horses are stabled! Neat to look in at all the carriages and get my pony fix. Reviews about the area are over dramatic. I would not walk it alone at night, no. But then, there are few unfamiliar places I would walk at night alone. This is, indeed, the perfect place to see New Orleans if you’re an RV’er.

The employees of FFRV were friendly and gave us great tips of the Area. Location is great only 2 blocks from the French Quarter and 5 Blocks from Bourbon Street. All sites were very clean and very well taken care of. If we go back I will be staying there again. Very impressive.

As we drove in, a customer service rep walked to our Rv to give us site information. Beautiful facilities, less than a mile from bourbon street.

Office staff needs some hospitality and customer service training! We've stayed at this park several times over the years and have always enjoyed the park and it's proximity to the French Quarter. It's been about two years since our last visit and the office staff is definitely not as friendly as they used to be. We don't mind paying $100+ per night, but at that price I would expect a level of customer service more in line with a 5 star hotel. One of the ladies in the office was tending to her baby while the other one checking us in didn't seem to care. This is a great park and a great location... I just wish the customer service was what it used to be years ago when we first started visiting.

The park was very nice and all the amenities were great. The only issue I had was one night when it started raining pretty bad and I took an Uber back to the park from Bourbon St., upon arriving at the park I noticed that the keypad in order to get in is on the fence and impossible to reach from within a vehicle, so I got soaked having to get out of the car and standing in the rain to enter the code. This seems like a design flaw, in my opinion, specially when it rains as often as it does there. Other than that, everything was great. A nice quiet park to be in.

This is a clean convenient RV Park, BUT...no Internet inside your RV...and we had a tent trailer camped next to us , and it was not self contained. They also had 4 dogs in a pen outside their trailer. Every time someone walked by the dogs barked. Called the front desk and she said they have no limits on dogs or rules about trailers. Paying over $100.00 plus a night there should be some rules.
