My family had a camp on Grand Isle for 30 years are so and it was destroyed by Katrina. Does anyone know what contractors are charging per square foot to build. Can email me at jksmo442@cox.net Thanks

I recently read a post on the internet regarding the opening of a new campground on Elmer's Island that also offered sea kayak rentals. I don't remember which site I saw this on, but it was probably rodnreel.com or louisianasportsman.com , in early June 2007. When I mentioned this to some friends who have a 5th wheel trailer they were very excited and want to plan a trip there NOW.....great, except I can no longer find the link-does any one here know anything about this new campground? thanx for any help

You can no longer enter Elmer's Island from the highway, but if you drive from Bridgeside Marina around to the Gulf side of the island, you can fish along its' shore. Hurricane Katrina washed a large cut from the Gulf along the left side of Elmer's road.
Grand Isle has made a remarkable comeback with a brand new Bridgeside Marina, debris has largely been cleared, and cleanup continues. Town Hall has just reported that FEMA has cut off their funds for removing debris and now the property owners must fend for themselves.
