Tucked away in St. Tammany Parish, Madisonville is a sleepy little town that’s perfect for a day trip. Nature lovers will appreciate a visit to Fairview-Riverside State Park, a tiny but mighty state park that clocks in at less than 100 acres, but its location along the scenic Tchefuncte River is perfect for a day of outdoor exploration. Just across the river is a newer restaurant to hit the scene, and the waterfront views will leave you speechless.

Tchefuncte Restaurant opened in 2020, making waves in the Northshore culinary scene from the moment they opened their doors.
