SHREVEPORT, La. - KSLA News reports that Caddo Lake State Park has reopened at the end of December, after being closed for 3 months for renovations. Driving through the park is now a much different experience. "It’s a lot more level and a smoother driving experience," said Park Superintendent Brandon Lopes-Baca, in the article. While the park was closed, The Texas Dept of Transportation repaved and renovated the roads throughout the entire park.
According to KSLA writer Melissa Kakareka, Park officials also renovated the camp sites. Pull-in pads are wider and longer. “There used to not be really good access for RV’s to pull in and have a real comfortable fit and camping experience,” said Lopes-Baca. Visitors also have access to a brand new showering and bathroom facility. Park officials have also added little touches like natural iron ore rocks to the landscape. Park officials hope the renovations will bring more visitors from all across the region to see Caddo Lake State Park.
