We know you can’t wait to take your new ride for a spin. How about venturing out on a day trip to Minden? Just 17 miles away, roll down the windows and feel the breeze in your hair on the drive there. See the sights starting with Minden Recreation Complex, Germantown Colony Museum and Caney Lakes Recreation Area. Locals are also likely to point you in the direction of Ruston, 25 miles away. If you only have time for one thing here, let it be Ruston Sports Complex. (But we’re also big fans of Railroad Park and Lincoln Parish Park.)
