Bring your bike out here because there's a gorgeous access trail to the neuse River Trail. There is great parking, super clean bathrooms. This is just an overall great experience.

Paths connect to the Neuse River trail across the river, though you'll have to walk for a bit and cross an impressive-looking bridge to get there. The amount of parking and the hours it was open seem to be somewhat inadequate for the demand on this space, but it's large enough that people can spread out well. There is a restroom area near the parking lot, albeit without running water in the sinks. I could imagine the trails and parking being developed a bit better, but the space is certainly well worth having as a park and well worth visiting.

The area is really clean, and a nice place to take your little ones to play, or as an access point to reach the trail. It is right behind the River Bend School, almost in the back of the parking lot. I would recommend this as a nice place to drop the small ones to play for a little bit. #460

It is not often a government gets something right, but in the case of the Greenway they nailed it in my opinion. Laid out nicely along the Neuse River. Trash cans set up so people can dispose of their garbage. A great place to jog, walk or ride your bike. I wish more cyclists would announce themselves when coming up from behind, but hey what would the world be without assholes. Enjoy a relaxing couple of ours and take a hike. Relatively flat and you can go as far as you like.

Make sure to pack you own water, I didn't see anywhere to fill up.

Great place to cool off during those summer months! There were a handful of older kids who weren't paying attention. One tumbled into my toddler on accident. They had a first aid station on site but the girl was young and didn't seem to have a clue. My toddler had a busted lip and the girl said "we can wrap it". SMH.

There are also shaded turf areas with seating, which is a nice touch for parents who want to stay out of the sun while keeping an eye on the kids. A few things kept it from being a 5-star visit. The parking lot is very small, there is only one restroom for the splash pad area, and I wish there was a small gate or fence around it since it's so open. I also expected it to be a little larger than it is. Overall, it's a clean, enjoyable, and free place to cool off on a hot day. I'd definitely come back.

The dog park was really busy today with at least a dozen in the "large" side and two on the "small" side. Running about and parking while their humans chatted and watched. The park has plenty of parking. [Review 2422 of 2024 - 3878 in North Carolina - 23435 overall]

I was there Friday for a Wake Forest Fungo baseball game. The team and league are comprised of college baseball players (mainly division 2 & 3) who play for the summer. The field they are on has been improved from an open cut infield to a grass one and they built an announcers box and snack stand. They also added batting cages and covered stands on both sides. It was fun coming out although is was hot and close to 100 degrees at game time which was 6:30pm. They do sell light snacks, soda and beer at the venue.
