Jimmie Davis State Park, Recreational park in Jackson Parish, United States.

The 5,000-acre recreational area stretches across a forested peninsula on Caney Creek Lake, featuring mixed pine-hardwood forests and extensive waterfront access points.

Established in 1996 as Caney Creek Lake State Park, the site received its current name in 2003 to honor former Louisiana Governor Jimmie Davis.

The park commemorates Jimmie Davis, who served two terms as Louisiana governor and gained recognition as a country music performer in the 1940s.

Visitors can choose from 17 waterfront cabins, 2 group lodges, or 73 campsites, with each accommodation providing direct access to boat docks and power connections.

The reservoir holds the record for Louisiana's largest caught bass, weighing 16 pounds, making it a premier destination for fishing enthusiasts.
