Lakay is a camp hideout in Red Dead Redemption 2 and Red Dead Online in the Bayou Nwa region of the Lemoyne territory.

It lies southeast of Lagras and northwest of Saint Denis on a piece of land jutting into the Kamassa River. Little is known about Lakay other than the fact of the rumors of it being haunted and locals are afraid of it. The Night Folk can be found around Lakay. The Van der Linde gang temporarily camps in this location near the end of the fifth chapter of the game.

Events of Red Dead Redemption 2[]

Lakay first plays a major role in the story of Redemption 2 in Chapter 5, serving as a temporary refuge for the Van der Linde gang after the disastrous Lemoyne National Bank robbery, which resulted in most of the gang being forced to flee Shady Belle, and causing some to be stranded on the Caribbean island of Guarma. After Dutch, Bill, Micah, Javier, and Arthur returned from Guarma, Arthur was sent to Shady Belle to look for the gang. As he arrives there, he finds a letter written by Sadie Adler informing him the gang is staying in Lakay. As Arthur and the rest of the gang reunites at Lakay, they are suddenly ambushed by swarms of Pinkertons, which they barely fend off.

Following the unexpected shootout, gang morale was the lowest it had been since the aftermath of the Blackwater Massacre, and there was a push to try and find another camp as quick as possible. Some time later, Arthur met up with Charles Smith and they found another place to camp at Roanoke Ridge; a former Murfree Brood hideout known as Beaver Hollow. The gang promptly left Lakay for the new camp, ending Chapter 5 of the story.
