River Bend Park

Brand new park and playground! Geared towards smaller kids but is a fun park. Our 3-year-old had a BLAST and didn’t wanna leave, even though it was only 34° outside today! 🤣❄️👍 I like how all of the play things are spread out and not all tightly clustered together. Really nicely done and creatively layed out playground.

Nice park with a small playground and access to bike trails. The playground is good for smaller kids 6 years old and younger. Older kids may play through quickly or find the equipment a little boring for them. Bathrooms are further away from playground towards the trail and boat ramp to Nuese River.

Small park but plenty of things to climb, slide and play on to release energy and have some fun. Small slide for toddlers, big swing, climbing ropes, climbing rocks, and see-saw. They also have some places in the shade for parents and caregivers to sit.

Clean park with plenty of open space for picnics or just running around. With this being a fairly new park, I would have expected the kids playground to have been much bigger, especially with all the new homes built which you can see while driving through the neighborhood to get to the park (not as near the size of Knightdale Station).

I have an almost 2 years old, and the park is perfect for that age. We go in the mornings on the weekends some, and there is usually no one else there (probably because it's so hot). It's also kinda out of the way (in a good way), so again, it stays quiet while we are there. They have the slide area covered, which is nice. I just wish they had it fenced in as I'm having to chase the toddler as he runs to the woods.
