Lakeside Community Park

Facilities and Recreation

Found in the Milam Street area of Shreveport, Louisiana, Lakeside Community Park is a welcoming neighborhood retreat. Run by the Shreveport Public Assembly and Recreation (SPAR), this park has a bit of something for everyone, whether you're looking to stay active or just enjoy some fresh air.

The park combines recreational opportunities with community programs in a relaxed, neighborhood setting. Golf enthusiasts will appreciate the 9-hole course - nothing too intimidating, just a pleasant spot to work on your swing without the pressure of a championship course.

Family-Friendly Amenities

If you've got kids in tow, the playground area is spacious enough to let them burn off energy while you take a breather on a nearby bench. When Louisiana's famous heat kicks in, the sprayground becomes the place to be - a simple but effective way to cool down that's always a hit with the younger crowd. For indoor activities, the gymnasium offers space for everything from pickup basketball to community fitness classes.

Community Center

The heart of Lakeside is really its recreation center, which buzzes with after-school programs and community activities all year long. Need a space for your next gathering? The center's rental options include a foyer, kitchen, and multipurpose room that can transform from meeting space to celebration venue without missing a beat.

What we particularly appreciate is how the park prioritizes accessibility - the wheelchair-accessible entrance and dedicated parking mean everyone in the community can enjoy what Lakeside has to offer, regardless of mobility needs.
