About Goldonna
Goldonna is a small, quiet village tucked away in northern Natchitoches Parish, home to around 400 residents. The community grew around the historic Drake's Salt Works in the 19th century before becoming a regular stop along the Louisiana and Arkansas Railway. Today, the former rail corridor has been converted into the L&A Trail, offering miles of scenic paths for walking, biking, and horseback riding between neighboring towns.
Life in Goldonna centers around the outdoors and a relaxed rural pace. Saline Bayou and Saline Lake sit just south of the village, providing great spots for fishing, paddling, and spending time along the water. Neighbors gather every September for the annual Drake Salt Works Festival, which brings the community together with local food, music, and crafts. It is a peaceful corner of northern Louisiana suited for anyone looking to enjoy wide-open spaces and small-town living.
