Century 21-Spigener Real Estate

If your schedules and other commitments keep you and your main squeeze from leaving town for a romantic trip, why not journey to the Fairfield Bed and Breakfast? The two of you will be pampered by the king size European beds, fireplaces and whirlpool tubs - elements that make it easy to lose the week's stress and allow the two of you to get close without any interruptions. Fairfield's two adjoining homes were built around 1870 and feature a 1-acre green garden oasis, a perfect venue for you and your honey to take a walk through after you arrive in the evening or just before breakfast in the morning.

Artbreak takes place every April and May. Students from Bossier and Caddo Parish take part in several hands-on art projects and also serve as judges for the various pieces that are completed. This festival is a weekend of dance, music, theater, food, fun and even a 5K race.

If you want to steer the family away from all the hustle and bustle of the city and relax near the water, a good choice is the Charles and Marie Hamel Memorial Park. Clean, well-maintained and serene, the scenery is a nice break from all of the city's fast-paced activity and mainstream attractions. Over the park's seventeen acres, you'll find the perfect spot to have a picnic and enjoy the river view. The hours are dawn until dusk, so plan a day full of wide open spaces with the Hamel Park as your only destination.

A romantic outdoor stroll for a couple or a nice little break for the whole family, the RiverView Park is the perfect place to do either one. With its spectacular 35 foot tall steel roses, a 300 foot long floating dock and the omnipresent Red River, it is one of the city's premier places to take in all of nature's wonders.
