Zwolle
is a small town located in Sabine Parish in northwest Louisiana. The population as of the 2000 census was 1,752 residents. Zwolle is situated in the heart of Toledo Bend Country, which is a 186,000-acre, man-made reservoir created in the 1960s. The waters of the Sabine River were dammed, creating the reservoir that has become a nationally-recognized recreational lake and home to some of the best fishing, boating, and golf anywhere. North Toledo Bend State Park is situated on a peninsula which extends into the reservoir at the mouth of Bayou San Miguel, just outside of Zwolle. The land consists of rolling uplands and interconnected ravines and valleys. The park lies in a region of major lumbering activity, with a mixed pine and hardwood forest covering most of the park. A nature trail meanders through this beautiful woodland. The town of Zwolle is also home to the Zwolle Tamale Fiesta, a special event that celebrates the rich Spanish and Indian heritage of the people of the town. The Fiesta offers parades, arts and crafts, dancing, children's activities, free entertainment, and, of course, lots of delicious hot tamales.
