My 5 year old child loves this park. There is so much to do and explore including a very expansive jungle gym, and xylophones. Probably our favorite park in Shreveport/Bossier City.

Love this park. Bummer is that you can’t come during the school hours but overall it’s an amazing place. The musical instruments to the rock climbing to the water park. Is something not to miss this summer.

Solid park with big trees, a new playground, and a concrete walking/jogging trail that goes around the perimeter. Neighborhood is good for running in early morning.

A Big, spacious park with lots to do! A huge field, lots of play equipment and little sprinklers for a hot day. They even have musical equipment there thats pretty unique. The small parking lot next to a busy street is the only downside but overall a great place for the family to have fun.

A.C. Steere park is a gem in the crown of Broadmoor, one of Shreveports most beloved subdivisions. It is connected to the school grounds of A.C. Steere Elementary School. Theres something for everyone whether you want to play tennis, walk or jog on the level paths, watch a soccer match, or relax on one of the many benches or have a picnic. Theres a dynamite playground and even a splash park. The open areas regularly host events. The old trees surrounding the park are as historic as the park itself. Access is simple. Parking can be challenging at times.

The swings are getting a little loose, so to prevent future injuries I think we should reground or replace the swing sets. In any case, they were fun to ride!

Took a frieds kids to park. Wow, its really nice, clean and safe. 10 out of 10 I recommend .

Review №24

Wow is the best word for this public park. The park/playground area is just huge such that many kids can be playing at once without ever feeling crowded out. The handicap accessibility in this park is also some of the best Ive EVER seen with multiple entry points into the elevated playground area such that you dont have to double back and try to turn around in your stroller or wheelchair to turn around. There were several shaded areas with park benches for parents to sit and watch their kids having a blast. Highly recommend this free, public park!

Review №25

This park is HUGE. There is so much for the kids to do. There are swings, slides, a jungle gym, and even a splash pad. I have taken my son here a few times and it was never really busy. There are benches to sit, and the park is naturally shaded with big trees. Such a great place for kids.

Incredible park! What kid couldnt just love this? Be warned that the park is closed during school hours. The teachers were very kind asking me to leave with my 2-year-old when the school kids were coming out to play at recess.

This park is absolutely wonderful! We were stopping mid trip for a leg stretch and had trouble getting the kids to leave. The park was really well thought out with many activities to help balance and coordination.

Good place to walk or jog. Lights on at night mean you can set up a game of soccer or frisbee. Bathrooms on site are a plus.

This is one of the if not the nicest park in the Shreveport Bossier area. Lots of playground equipment for the kiddos to play on. They have a splash pad in the summer time, a large open field behind the park for soccer games or just running around . A walking trail around the park and field as well. Great park for little children as well as older children. A must on a nice day! Please note I think the park is not available during school hours so before going double check with a.c. steere school

Shreveports Purple Park is great for families. A large field for various groups activities such as Kiting or perhaps Frisbee. While you are there be sure to visit Chets place, one of the last Spanish observation towers in all of Louisiana.

Review №41

Excellent local park in a good location. This park has a field, walking track, tennis courts, an older traditional play ground, and a newer, fully accessible playground. Compared to other parks, this one is well taken care of by the city and its users.

Review №47

This went from being a place to walk around to a really awesome park. In the summer there is a magical water spray place that turns on at the touch of a hand. Perhaps the best part is the musical chimes open to any player. The tones are arranged so that even a clumsy or repetitive player can hardly help making a beautiful sound and Ive heard real musicians turn it into something that will break your heart. The jungle gym complex is the largest in the are and there are more than enough swings, which is sometimes an issue at other parks. Plenty of benches and gardens for adults to sit and relax while the kids play. And there is still the path for those who just want to walk around.

I got here without my kids when I want peace and time to get refocused. It allows one to actually be in the now and admire all of Gods beautiful creations.

Review №49

Safe feel, diverse culture of parents-kids on the playground, huge soccer field which was in use by an adult group when I visited, and a nice track at the perimeter. The toddler playground is sectioned separate from the big kids area. There are life-sized instruments for the kids to play w/my favs being the xylophone and chimes.

This is the Playground for the AC Steer Elementary school. I was really impressed. It had a large variety for the kids but most importantly the play area is completely fenced just right settings the play area not the entire field.

Super cool park! My kids were ecstatic when we pulled in and saw it. They didnt complain at all about being bored which is amazing. There is a section with musical instruments for the kids to play on. There are swings--regular swings and baby swings. The play ground is massive with lots to explore and do. There is a smaller area for toddlers and a splash pad for the summer months. Its really a cool place to go. I noticed a walking trail and a large field behind the play area, but I didnt go back there. Looked nice, though!

One of the best parks in Shreveport. Open and people are not climbing all over you. There is enough space to play almost any sport. They also have a trail that is well taken care us that after 4 laps equals a mile.

This park could be so nice(especially for shreveport) but every time we come here its trashy. The grass is usually tall and the exhibits/equipment are broken. I would be embarrassed if my name were on the supporters plaques. Its such a shame. Seems that Shreveport is turning in to a dump.

This park is built for all kids. Even those in wheel chairs. Has a water feature and learning sections. Great visit.

Review №87

Unfortunate there is not any public parking close. We have to park across the field from the playground and carry kids and toys, food and drinks, so it is labor intensive. When the field is muddy it is really unpleasant. We are irritated that we cannot bring the 2 and 3-year-olds here to play before 3:30 M-F. Very unfortunate, as that is the time we need to be leaving the park, not arriving.any of the musical pipe instruments need to be repaired; parts are missing and the majority of then pipe segments need to be tightened down. The playground equipment is perfect AND PURPLE, so that thrills the children, and me.
