Harper Park – Knightdale

Harper Park is a 4-acre town park on Main Street in Knightdale. The Town’s Parks, Recreation & Cultural Programs offices are based here, so it doubles as the home base for the parks department.

Racquet players come for the four tennis courts and four pickleball courts, which stay lit into the evening. More than two acres of shaded woods and lawn give everyone else somewhere to sit or stretch out, which makes it a comfortable stop for a family with one player and a few spectators.

What to know

• Restrooms are on site and open into the evening.
• Vending at the park is seasonal.
