Review:
Lafreniere Park is the largest public park in the town of Metairie and is a great place to relax. The park features several water elements, including a small island with a pavilion as well as streams and fountains. A two-mile walking trail circles the park and is open for pedestrian access. The path features parking and stretching gyms at several locations around the circuit.
Two large, enclosed playgrounds provide entertainment for small children and include benches and tables for parents to relax while the children play. Several sports and multi-purpose fields are part of the park, including five soccer fields and two baseball diamonds. Some of the wildlife that can be spotted in the park include birds, turtles, raccoons, squirrels, rabbits, and nutria.
