We haven’t lived in Lafayette long but happened upon Moncus Saturday, and let me just say I wish we had found it sooner ! We had our grand daughter with us and even tho we were only there a couple of hours , we still didn’t get to see everything. It is an absolutely stunning place to visit. Super dog friendly and had so much for kids to do. Splash pad, massive tree house and much more. We are definitely going back, like tomorrow.
Such a wonderful park. I always enjoy my time there. There is a little of something for everyone. Great playground area with the splash pad included, tree house, paved trails, dog park, and Saturday Farmer’s Market, etc. By far, my favorite is Lake Reaux, which sits in the middle of the park. It has a variety of plant and animal wildlife to view. There is a ton of space around the lake for fishing and lounging. In addition, there are plenty of activities that take place throughout the year. I am a huge fan of Yoga in the Park and I love the fact that they have dedicated time and space for health and wellness activities. Such an awesome place.
I’m visiting for work and this was a very nice place to take a walk. It was very clean, beautiful, and felt very safe. Lots of other people enjoying the park too. Wish my city had a park like this!
Photos really don’t do this park justice!
What a lovely, unexpected oasis in Lafayette LA. The level of detail and intracate planning make this place seem less like a plot of land, and more like a labor of love.
This kind of park punches WAY above its weight: I was not expecting this in (sorry guys) a pretty small town. How lucky are the people and children of Lafayette LA to be able to have this. Almost every adult reminisces about their childhood little park, but it can look disappointing when you return years later. Not this! This is some Hobbit level relaxation. Bravo! I’m glad I’ve never heard of this, I’m glad it’s unknown to me. I’m jealous of these citizens, with their great food and amazing little park
Absolutely a place to fall in love with, a must visit. If you are there in Lafayette for some days, I recommend you to come here daily. Lovely landscape and a lots of activities for kids. Especially the fountain. The place has a lot of positive energy..
