Community Amenities at Riva Trace, Annapolis, Maryland 21401

If you're looking for community amenities, you'll find several at Riva Trace.  There are tennis courts, basketball courts, walking trails, circuit training path, and community pier.  Access to the tennis courts is control - so you'll need a key from the community association.  The basketball court is open for all to use as is the tot lot playground.

The walk down to the community pier is great anytime of the year.  Although at this time of year it's a little muddy in places (but Rocky doesn't seem to mind).  Early morning is best since there are fewer folks out walking.  While dogs are not supposed to be off-leash in the community, many people let their dogs run to and from the community pier.

Spring is almost here.  Last fall there was a community-wide project to plan along Riva Trace Parkway.  The fruits of community labor are starting to show and will soon be in full bloom.  Already the spring flowers are starting to pop up here and there.  And the flowering trees will soon be in bloom.
