I have been going to Shreveport for years from Dallas and was tired of all the old hotels that never seemed to have anything fixed. The last time I was over at the casinos, I saw a brand new Homewood Suites located by Pines road (exit 10). I already had my reservations at another hotel but I stopped by the hotel to look at it and wow was all I ...
Most people don't know but there's the Libbey Glass factory on I-20 at the Jewella Exit as you're coming in to Shreveport from Dallas side. Great outlet store and always good bargains. Good place to drop some coin before you donate it to the casinos!

Stress Free

Shreveport like many other cities has its pros and cons. If you are going for entertainment ie. (casino, horse races or one of the festivals) you will enjoy yourself. There's the boardwalk close to all the casinos for excellent shopping opportunites. Of course as in all of Louisiana you wont have any complaints about the food.
Shreveport, LA is great. You should go. Shreveport is so beautifull, & you see roses everywhere. I rate this 5 stars. It has great atmosphere, it is clean, & it has the prettyest buildings I have ever seen. They have a GREAT park, RiverView Park. The park features an interactive water fountain with light and music, a 300-ft.-long floating ...

By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/02/06
PLEASE AVOID THE SHREVEPORT-BOSSIER AREA. THE ONLY GOOD THING ABOUT THIS PLACE IS THE FOOD. THE CASINOS ARE TRASHY AND NOT MANY TABLES TO PLAY ON. PARKING DOWNTOWN.....FORGET ABOUT IT!!!! MY CAR GOT BROKEN INTO NOT ONCE BUT TWICE. I WAS ONLY ON VACATION FOR 8 DAYS THERE.

Since Thanksgiving is coming up, I wanted to let everyone know about the amazing fireworks display in the city of Shreveport that kicks off the holiday season. It is called Rockets over the Red and is always the Saturday just after Thanksgiving on the downtown riverfront. The display has been rated one of the top five in the nation because of the ...

A Meal While Rolling On the River
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/26/05
If you want to just chill out and leave your cares behind while gnoshing on a big burger and watching the water, the Stoner S'Port Marina is just the place. The big restaurant barge, owned by the city of Shreveport, Louisiana, is a terrific place to hang out and watch the water, talk with friends and enjoy low-cost dining. The Marina restaurant ...
