On my most recent trip to Lake Charles, we were trying to expand our horizons beyond the casinos…read moreand get a good dose of nature too. After a late lunch, we made our way to Lake Charles Veteran's Memorial Park. There are several lots close to the park so parking shouldn't be an issue. After parking, we discovered that there are actually several parks adjacent to each other including Bord du Lac Park and the Lakefront Promenade. We ended up walking through all of them. What stands out about the Veteran's Memorial Park is the statues commemorating veterans. And it's more than that! You even have a full-size tank so there are plenty of photo opps. I wanted to climb on top of the tank but there was a sign saying that wasn't allowed so I was good. It's a small park but one that's worth checking out along with the others in the area.

This Park is set right next to the Lake Charles Lake, if that makes sense. There is a long brick walkway right along the water, very scenic. I got in a few runs here while I was visiting. Located right across the street from the Lake Charles Civic Center near downtown, a great place to visit, definitely recommended!!

You can buy a season pass so you don't have to pay the $3.00 every time you go. You can also get a military discount with ID. Lots of trails to enjoy! Don't miss it!

Fun water slides, splash pool, children's play area and a fast flowing lazy river. There were…read moreplenty of tubes available to grab and go for the waterslides or lazy river. This place is great no matter what age. Plenty of food, pizza, drinks, ice cream choices to purchase at their facility. You cannot bring your own food into their facility only bottled water. (That was kinda a bummer) We did have a total blast with our grandkids and family. This place offers a great way to cool down. We will definitely go again!!

Pretty park but as a dog owner and parent this place can only have 2 stars I hate that my dog has to sit and watch. So didn't stay here long though come without your dog and walk the path sit on the benches or let kids play on the playground and it's for all the features

I can honestly say the community has made some great upgrades. The quarter mile soft track is great on my knees. My husband loves the weight/ strength training area. There are three new cute children play areas with swings, climbing, seesaws, and more. Two rentable areas for Party's, BBQs, and Crawfish Boil that include: Covered Party area with fenced in BBQ pit, tables, water, and restroom. There are many smaller covered tables or 2 larger covered area with tables for bigger party, first come first serve. Please arrive early on the day of your party to set up because this is a very busy park. The dog area in the back right corner there is no fence running area and pine trees. I would love to see this area grow. Thing that my dog likes to do is play in water sprinklers, a small pool to cool off on the hot summer days. When the park is slow, I love to bring Daisy to play on the children splash pad. The one thing the park could work on would be the restrooms by the splash pad. The restrooms are gross! It is very hot, unsanitary, wet floor, empty soap/paper towels dispensers, full trash cans, and more. This is how the bathrooms have been for years. **Please throw all trash in the designated areas. The community has worked so hard. Please be respectful and do not be a Litter Bug!

If we even mention "dog park" they begin jumping up and down and running in circles. It's also a good place for owners to socialize while the dogs run around. The parish keeps it clean and orderly. I hope this place is around for a long time

This park is awesome…read more We visited for the first time on Thanksgiving only to realize this whole park is fenced, and it's a holiday so they were closed. This is a great thing though because the park stays clean and maintained. Came back again a couple days later and thoroughly enjoyed it. They have several clean restrooms which is great. They have a concession stand. The play structure itself is very ability inclusive and unique. You can't find a park like it nearby. It's right on the lake so the surroundings are nice as well.

It's new and fun for kids! Well kept so many things to do and see in this area. Love that they have…read morebathrooms and rise off area. Covered areas for sunny days. Playground is big and interactive for ages of all sides. Seeing the boats dock on marina is cool and a different view of lake Charles.
