Just east of Baton Rouge on I-12 and U.S. 190 is the city of Denham Springs, located in Livingston Parish. The population of this rapidly growing community is over 10,000 residents.
Bass Pro Shops has a large store here, at the intersection of I-12 and Range Avenue. Louisiana is known as a "Sportsman Paradise", and Bass Pro caters to the large numbers of hunters, fishermen, hikers and campers in the area.
In 1827, William Denham discovered a number of mineral springs on his property located on River Road. The city was named after Mr. Denham.
