Front of the Farm

Our home was built by Mr. J. L. and Mrs. Gladys Keys in the 1970's. Mrs. Gladys used to work for my Grandmother at the local ladies dress shop. She and her husband often brought us fresh vegetables they raised on their "little piece of heaven." They had no children and all these years later, their idea of heaven became ours to take care of now. We are so blessed here at Payne Lane Farms. You can safely camp minutes off of I-20 on our wooded, rural lot minutes from town, convenience stores, food, and even dump stations near by. The front (grass lawn) pecan orchard provides a refuge of shade and privacy while also allowing you to see everything around you. Rayville, Louisiana has great history and heritage and some fun artifacts to explore if you have an adventurous spirit. Good people and family owned businesses if services are needed while enroute-traveling. Payne Lane Farms provides grass lot shaded site with small concrete slab to park on for boondocking or plug-in at our 50 Amp service ($15.00per night) under the lighted pecan trees. A quiet stay and hopefully a start sky. This would be for people traveling through that needed a safe place for the/a night. Suggested Local Attractions: Rhymes Memorial Library, shopping at Magnolias and Lace, or The Rose… El Paso Mexican and Big Johns Burgers. Boeuf River and Rhymes School have deep historical roots. Motor homes in excess of 30,000 pounds and more than 35’ in length may not have the kind of ‘get up and go’ needed to navigate the front orchard. I know they have get up and go, it just is not distributed in a way that makes them able to navigate the orchard perhaps… We mainly host 33’ and under bumper pulls! We are not set up to pull out rigs weighing 30,000 pounds or more that may become bogged down! CNR or Bear's Towing Service is! If you risk it, call ahead for rates. As a side note, we do have a local Walmart and a Pilot if it’s raining and you need a place to stay over and you have a super heavy setup. I know that those parking lots are not pretty, but you sure won't get stuck in them... Happy Camping!
