Read more about this location

A.C. Steere Park Splash Pad is one of the best-known public splash pad options in Shreveport and pairs especially well with a broader park day. Families get the benefit of spray-pad water play plus Louisiana’s first barrier-free playground at Leaps and Bounds, along with picnic areas and walking trails nearby. It is a strong fit for mixed-age sibling groups because younger kids can cool off at the splash pad while older kids still have room to play in the larger park.
