We stopped here to stretch our legs on a road trip. Beautiful park with extensive paths. Also there are some gorgeous houses in the surrounding area for viewing while strolling. There were no playground that I saw but the little pockets of gardens and interesting landmarks spread throughout the park kept my kids attention pretty well.

Nice park in the middle of community. We went there for morning walk. Has a neat and clean trails to walk and jog. Could have been better with longer trails and more landscape maintenance. Overall we enjoyed our visit to the park

Very nice walking track and lots of open space for things like soccer, frisbee, kite flying etc. As well as a park for the children, a pavilion for parties and bathrooms and water fountains located near the park.

The bathrooms were closed but the playground equipment is open? Covid restrictions are ridiculous.

Great place to play Pokemon Go!! The walk trail is nice

Nice park with a good running trail, lots of trees, picnic areas, a big playground, and in a historic neighborhood with awesome old homes. Good for an early morning jog.

Beautiful park! My son always loves it here. Theres a great walking path and lots of open green spaces for picnics or frisbee, or just letting my son kick his favorite ball. We also took beautiful family photos here one evening. Great park!

Fun place with my babies. Take a kick ball put there and have a blast full of laughs!!!

Nice and beautiful neighborhood. Clean park, but restrooms were closed due to the covid-19.

Beautiful place! Great park for my family, kids and my dogs!

Beautiful place for a picnic! well maintained and clean.

Its pretty there its good for walks for sure, just dont go when its super hot.

This park is how every park should be!Beautiful fenced in playground for younger children and another one for older children.Filled with educational and creativity encouraging play sets and plenty of space in their feild for picnics or sports and several picnic tables as well. My 2 year old had a blast!I was visiting from out of town and very sad we dont have parks like this in my city!

If you are not comfortable around dogs. Like large sized dogs please proceed with caution

Beautiful day...well kept park!

Area was clean. Restrooms still closed because of Covid-19

My kids and I had fun playing at the playground there. We also enjoyed Pride in the Park. The food vendors were awesome and we enjoyed all of the booths and vendors that participated.

Very nice park for all ages ! Had lots of fun.

Nice park in the middle of everything.

We had fun, pride in the park was a success!! That was my first time coming to Betty Virginia Park, Sunday., but the staff was professional, the park was nice and clean.

Absolutely wonderful. Plenty of seats. The food was so good and the HSU band was a special surprise.

A great place to find a peace of mind. Fresh air, wind in the trees.... just a great place for picnic, biking, walking even the dogs!

I had really been missing when I used to walk. Walking was what contributed to my weight loss, but since I had graduated college, I didnt have access to their track anymore, and I had been wanting somewhere else to walk. This park provided tons of walkways that branched out and circled around the park. This eliminated running into other people and causing a clutter in the path which gave me a sense of independence and privacy apart from other people.But even when I did pass people, they were always nice with friendly faces greeted me. There were a diverse group of people here; old, young, dog-walking, baby-strolling, etc. There are tons of places where you can sit and relax, chairs everywhere. I saw a couple just sitting together with their newborn baby, or adults watching the kids play in the playground area. I did feel safe because lots of people were around. The park does seem like its accessible; I saw at least three places you can enter.

This is a lovely park. Overall it is clean and rather picturesque. A nice play area for smaller children 2-2-5 and a bit larger area for children 5-12. Lots of picnic tables available. Only down side so far is the limited parking.

Very beautiful and peaceful place to walk.

Spa is. Once rolling walking trails. Please try of spots to have a picnic or just enjoy a pretty day. And its I. The Highlands area so there some nice sightseeing to do.

Best park in Shreveport-Bossier, hands down. Great for kids, running, walking your dog, picnicking... All around a perfect park. (Clean, well-mantained, spacious, beautiful...)

Been going there since I was a kid!!im 54 now,,!!!

Beautiful. Lot of people walking.

Ive been going to this park since I was a little girl, we used to go to a tumbling class in the building. I remember back in the day the rocket ship, it was so awesome! It would be swaying back and forth when it was windy outside!! Good times! I still love this park and would highly recommend anyone to visit .

Apparently the nature spirts love it also.. I saw 1 even with my physical eyes. They would like to see u guys.. Be the leaders you seek why wait 4 change when all of us can do anything! we are you .

So much fun for our family picnic

Biking around the park is a good workout.

Its always clean and it hosts some great community events. Has a decent playground for kids and I like that there is a separate area for little kids. They also have a water fountain for pups.

Nice park, central area of town

Great park for walking. Pet owners dont clean up after their pets, so be alert.

Tons of room to run and play with family and kids...cute park..lots of fun..definitely recommend!

Very clean and fun

Always clean. Very large. Great workout space.

Love to take my kids here. Unfortunately this was a day I just needed to find peace and eat my lunch. It was perfect.

Best park in Shreveport. So much fun with Pumpkin Shine on Line as well.

Took my 4 year old son and my 15 year old. 4 year old had a blast. 15 year old had a relaxing time. Me personally I feel like the play area is WAY too small, but if my boys had a great time thats all that matters to me.

Nice Park ! Clean and well maintained spaces, friendly people. Great pavilions ! Lots of places to walk or run !

Very nice park with a great atmosphere. It has a nice area for kids to play and is dog-friendly; they even have little trash stations for dog owners to clean up after their dogs. Our only complaint is the restrooms. They are set up in a strange way with no real privacy.

It was great and very peaceful

Its really a good park. I feel safe, you can race, its fun! The atmosphere feels better than normally. The service is very good. Id go to this park if youre running!

Betty Virginia is a great park especially of you like to run! The kids can go for a bike ride or throw a ball around with you! They also have a small playground for your younger kids!! Its a safe, fun, family friendly park!

Beautiful and clean and peaceful

Friendly people and nice park for kids to play and adults to to walk or run

Great park

Beautiful park

Beautiful park. Great place for a walk. The bathrooms are inexcusable. There are no stall doors so absolutely no privacy. If the thought of someone catching you doing your essential business gives you a thrill, then Im not judging, but its definitely not my idea of a good time. I dont care what has happened in that bathroom, nothing warrants someone having the ability to see all your business as they wash their hands. Beautiful park, though.

We come to this park for a variety of activities. Theres plenty of space for family reunions, picnics, birthday parties, and showers. The bathrooms are not so great, and the playground is a little small, but other than that we enjoy it very much!

Great park for everyone, kids area is pretty nice could use some updates. Track for walking is nice too.

Really nice park to come to in the city, always clean and the grandkids like it

Awesome park! Really good playground equipment, and a good walking/jogging path around the park. Very clean, and very green. Only weird thing was the restooms, while clean, did not have doors. The toilets are tucked around corners, so of you value privacy, you might have to hold it....

Very clean and safe. Wonderful for family gatherings. I threw a family picnic and we all had a wonderful time. The bathrooms are clean also!!!

I often run through this neighborhood in the mornings and always enjoy my loop through the park. Betty Virginia Park has nice walking paths, a great playground for kids, and a big open field area where folks often gather to play soccer, do yoga, etc. The park is located in the middle of the South Highlands neighborhood, which is probably the most attractive neighborhood in the city. A fantastic place for a picnic, family outing or walking or jogging.

Its a good City Park. Has a descent playground divided for different ages. Good walking and bike paths.

Love this park and memree doesnt want to leave

Large park and playscape areas w/paved walking paths. Multiple picnic areas. Along the walking path, those fighting cancer and their families have made multiple donations to the park in celebration and memorial.

Great spot for the Celebration of Life we had for Melissa Owers-Lafitte on 08/11/19

Its 1000ft from my home. Love the peaceful atmosphere. Benches and gazebos throughout park. Has playground and indoor restroom and paved walking trails! Needs to be trimmed and have some stray branches removed but it still nice to visit. We visit several times a week.

Cut up logs. Are they and the tall grass in one part, meant to be a habitat for wildlife? Pretty benches with memorial plaks were touching as I visited on Memorial Day 2019

Well situated, there are many friendly people from all walks of the society and internationals to meet.The kids play ground should be renovated a bit more and expanded if possible. Some adults basic work out machines would be nice. A medium size elevated all glass reading room equipped with used furniture and donated books and magazines and volunteer attendants seems a great future plan.Thank you so much. The kids play ground is now renovated. Looking very good. Fair to mention other smaller changes and improvements are also visible around the park. God bless. Summer of 2018.

Great place to take the kids. They have a playground and also lots of room for running. There is a track that runs the perimeter of the park that you can walk/run on as well.

Me and my two girls love to go here

The park is great. Parking is not. Its a popular park with a small main parking lot. If youre not lucky enough to get a spot close to the entrance youll do some walking to get to the fun, safe, and clean park that has one section for the little kiddos and one for the somewhat bigger kiddos. Huge grass and playing area for family fun.

A great park to go to. This has to be one of the more relaxing, friendly parks I have been to. Its wide, grassy areas are great for a picnic, or try one of the many picnic tables. There is a paved walking trail that winds through the park as well. Along the way, there are dedications to fallen police officers, a breast cancer memorial, and sponsored benches surrounded by their own beautiful landcaping.There is a large, well maintained childrens playground. Also there is a pavilion nearby with adequate restrooms.I go there quite often to read in the morning or to walk. Betty Virginia Park is just a wonderful place.

Great clean place to spend time with the family

This place is outdated and is in need of a good cleaning. However, The picnic areas-are large and covered .

Nice park

I grew up right down the street from Betty Virginia off of Fairfield. Its a great park and well kept. Lots of fun for the kids and I enjoyed looking back on memories from my childhood.

Went to the puckinpat h with my grandma

Fun lots of pokestops and gyms.

Best park!! While my kids play me and my fiance walk around the track!! They also have a memorial section for cancer patients that has beat cancer and also those that weve lost. Its dog friendly. They also have 2 different parks for toddlers and older kids(7 and beyond)!!

Grounds were well organized and pleasant landscapes

Beautiful little park, bring the kids and pets!

Very nice park. Its got some nice walking and jogging trails. Playground for the kids is great too!

Good running track. Way too hot this time of year.

Always a great park to visit, lots of space and beauty.

Good times

Great park in a fantastic location.

Love going here to walk. Its peaceful and the grounds are very well kept

My children had a really good time

This is a family park for everyones your pet the park is a very beautiful place to just sit and think pray to GOD for all his GLORY that only he put here I say on the park bench in peace it a wonderful place to be at when u can even hear the wind blow that amzing when u can feel the present of GOD in Jesus Christ name AMEN

Rating is for this park as far as the trails and the scenery are beautiful. But the kids play equipment is horrible. It looks old and out of date.

Great park, I walk my dog here frequently. A great venue for the annual Crawfest.

What a great place to bring your family! Clean, updated playgrounds, open area for games, walking track and great location.

The park is very big and is a good across for adults and children alike. There are playgrounds for children and adults can run on the trail or find a nice spot to enjoy the day and/or a good book. Late Fall and early to mid spring are probably the best times to head on over.

This is in the historical Highland area of Shreveport, La. Have a bar-b-que, picnic and enjoy the beautiful green hills in this park.

Crawfest was great, was visiting from out of town had a bang up day.Good job folks.

Our favorite park in Shreveport/Bossier area. Great for anyone and plenty to do for all ages! LGBTQ friendly also.

Its wonderfull and its good to spend time with Your best friends.

Very clean and safe, excellent for children and pets

Betty virginia park is a fun place to be .Bring family, pets,food and games.you will enjoy the visit so will family.

Great little park.

This is probably the best park in caddo parish

Have plenty to do not just slides and swings like most parks

Best park in Shreveport. Great events there from time to time. There is plenty of space to be active.
