This is a quiet little park along the river located just steps away from downtown Covington. It is…read morea pretty nice park as it is quiet and has lots of trees. The best part of this park is the playground equipment. It is huge and one of the best I have seen. Other than that this park doesn't offer much. There are few benches to sit on and no other attractions to draw people to the park. The pavillion is big and it looks like a good spot to rent for a party. There is no walking/jogging path, no tennis courts, kayaks/boats to rent, soccer/softball fields, etc. For me this park offers little else to do unless you want to bring the kids here to play on the playground equipment.

The Bogue Falaya Park is a great place for events, relaxing or having fun with the kids…read more The park is located along the banks of the Bogue Falaya River and offers a beautiful view of the river. There is a large playground area that the kids love. The playground reminds me of my favorite playground as a kid because it is made of wood. Most of the ground level decking is made of composite boards now, but the main structures are wood. The playground has swings, monkey bars, slides and all sorts of obstacles for the kids. The ground is sand so be prepared to get sand in your shoes, but it will be worth it. There is a large pavilion in the park which is available for rent. This would be a great place to plan a private event or outdoor wedding. The open space of the park is very large. There are some trees, but there is also a vast open area. It would be a great place to have a picnic or just lay back and watch the clouds roll by. There is ample parking inside the park unless there is a large event. When there is a large event, you are forced to park outside on the city streets and walk to the event. I highly recommend this park to families.

Many times I had heard reference to Pelican Park during the years I had worked on the Northshore,…read morebut had never visited the place. Then our grandson played a lacrosse tournament there. I was amazed at the size of the park. The soccer fields had been converted to lacrosse (basically smaller nets and slightly different dimensions). I was impressed with the amount of parking that was available. We didn't explore much of the facility, but when they have to post signs directing you around, it is big. Reading the reviews, I wished I had spent some time just driving around and gawking at the place. I'm sure I'll be back for future lacrosse tournaments.

This would be a 5 star rating if they did even the bare minimum of maintenance. It's such a nice…read morepark, but because no one is fixing the little broken things here & there it has obviously seen better days. Everything is rusted, you can barely play any of the sensory instruments bc the sticks you used to play them are no longer attached to the strings. Which is such a an easy fix. There were a ton of spots where the asphalt has been torn away at so it's like having potholes on a playground. Definitely a let down.

Everything was perfect! Highly recommended for families of all ages and abilities. From the parking…read moreto the food, we wanted for nothing!

We first encountered Couillon Cluckers at the yearly Touch a Truck event where they had their…read moremobile petting zoo set up. I was completely enamored by the wide variety of animals, the itty bitty Serama rooster and the tiny Julianna pigs. The owners were very laid back, and also very kind. We reached out on FB to schedule a farm tour. You will experience poop and dirt and animals on a farm, so you want to dress accordingly. The goats will jump on you. The dogs will investigate you. The birds will make a ruckus because they don't recognize you. We arrived at 8am and were greeted by Great Pyrenees and a host of birds! Our tour started at the farm store behind the main house. We got to hold and pet a 5wk old pig and a 1yr old pig. They were litter box trained and will do tricks for treats! The bird barn had different breeds of chicken, and a few pens full of peacock, extremely loud guinea fowl, and some turkeys. We learned about and got to hold and pet some very soft birds. Then we accompanied the farmer on his breakfast rounds. The first pasture we went to was filled with goats and sheep and small horses. We went to a second pasture with llama, alpaca, donkeys, goats, and emu. We passed through a covered area with different breeds of rabbit and more chicken. Another pen held several full grown Julianna pigs. I think Jethro the donkey was my favorite of the animals! He was so gentle and just wanted pets and hugs. While the animals are gentle and will eat from your hands, I don't know if I would recommend letting kids do this at the breakfast rounds because the goats get a bit demanding and our 5/7/8 yr olds were overwhelmed by the attention. We ended the tour by meeting the chinchillas for their weekly dust bath. We even saw some little baby chinchillas! The petting zoo would be worth every penny and I'm hoping one of my kids requests it for their party. The owner also makes Goat Soaps and they are just SO beautifully molded and colored and would make amazing gifts. We bought one molded for decoration and another to use. We also bought a couple cartons of fresh farm eggs. Overall, this place and these people are amazing! Can't recommend enough!
