Opened to the public in 2015, Riverview Park is a great place for recreational sports as it has shaded as well as open playing fields. The park regularly hosts various local sports competitions, luring decent crowds of spectators to its gates. Additional features of the park include rope climbing structures, climbing towers, picnic tables and restrooms. The park is the perfect place for a family picnic and they even give ramadas for rent which you need to reserve in advance. So, watch the lovely fountains, play a sport, or simply relax in the outdoors at Riverview Park.

We were in Scottsdale in mid August when the temperature was hovering around 110°.This turned out to be a great place for kids. There is an elaborate splash pad, which is very impressive.The playground equipment is also very extensive and impressive. There is a zip line, a multi person swing, and elaborate, climbing apparatus.This place is perfect for a very hot day. There is plenty of free parking.There are also many shaded places to sit, for a picnic or simply to chill out.There are a number of aquatic parks in Scottsdale and Phoenix areas. But tickets can cost as much as $50 per adult and $40 per child, or more. And the reviews on those aquatic parks are decidedly mixed.This place is absolutely free and kids can have a great time here, especially in the splash pad.Overall, an excellent public playground.
Morelarge park right near Cubs stadium and Bass Pro Shop. The playground is BIG! It has a splash pad, sandboxes, equipment, and a super tall rope climbing structure. There's picnic tables and seating and rest rooms right near the playground too. The walking path takes you around the park, picnic grounds and connects to the Rio Salado Parkway walk and bike trail which connects all the way to downtown and beyond. You can also do urban fishing in the ponds.
MoreRiver view park has a lot of things to do. There is a lake for fishing (yes, fishing!), a huge playground with a lot of climbing structures, and a splash pad for those hot days. There is a lot of parking around the park.
MoreOne of the best parks I've ever seen! Plenty of shaded area, parking . . . a splash pad to keep everyone cool, lot os outdoor playgrounds for all ages of children. It was a lifesaver on a hot day when were in town for a wedding and trying to keep the little ones happy and cool!
MoreIt is a beautiful park, but unfortunately people aren't picking up their dogs poops. It seems there are more and more dogs and poops in that park each year. There are so many dogs' waste on the grass and some on the sidewalks where people who stepped on them tracked them on their shoes. Very annoying!!! Suggestion: please place some trash bins through out the park, and add a park rule sign which is large enough to be visible to people that says PICK UP your dogs waste. Adults could avoid to step on them, but little children were too busy playing didn't see them. Without the dogs poops I would rate this park 5 stars. I knew the Park workers picked them up, but I think they are overwhelmed.
