"The Festival Capital of Louisiana," Lake Charles hosts over 75 festivals each year, the most famous being Mardi Gras, the second largest in the state. The annual celebration attracts revelers with Cajun cook-offs, a children's carnival and a lighted boat parade. The city celebrates its local heritage with "Louisiana Pirate Festival," a two week long party in honor of the pirates that once sailed the local lake. The Central School Arts & Humanities Center is a stop on the African American Heritage Trail.

The kids loved the play structure and I loved the safety features. Our toddler is a bit more adventurous so preferred the big kid area over the toddler corner, but that looked nice for the little ones.

Has a nice board walk area along the lake, lots of ducks, piers to fish from, picnic tables and lots of trees.

This is very nice and fun to see. It has a plane, tank and other things to see. Oh, yes and alligators in a fenced in area. Please don't feed them or get inside the fence. They will not charge at you but are dangerous to be around. And please, don't hurt them.

Grew up at Sam Houston park. It's been years since I returned. The park has been updated. The grounds are clean and kept up. Love the smell of pine trees.
