About Baskin

Located along Highway 425 in Franklin Parish, Baskin offers quiet country living just minutes from both Winnsboro and Rayville. It is a close-knit rural village surrounded by farmland and timber, where neighbors know each other and life moves at an easy pace. The town is proud of its roots and its most famous native, country music star Lainey Wilson, who grew up right here. If you are looking for a peaceful, slow-paced spot to settle down in northeast Louisiana, Baskin has plenty of small-town charm.
