Riverside Park

Located adjacent to the Recreation Vehicle Park is Riverside Park which was constructed in 1985. The development of this 7 acre park was the end result of relocation effort involving over 40 homes in the floodplain.
Benches have been located along the riverbank overlooking the St. John River which forms the international boundary between the United States and Canada. The park offers a variety of recreational activities for a variety of individuals. For those who come to enjoy outdoor cooking, there are picnic tables and grills available at various locations. One picnic table is wheelchair accessible.
Other facilities include a canoe launch/boat landing site, basketball court, a swing set, playground, pavilion, soccer field and restrooms.
At the confluence of the Fish and St. John Rivers, a border of trees surrounding the Park also adds to the beauty of Riverside Park.

Self Contained Recreation Vehicle Park
The Self Contained Recreation Vehicle Park, opened on July 16, 1989, is but one of the many fine recreational facilities located in the Town of Fort Kent. While funded partly with the State funds, the Fort Kent Lions Club donated many hours to create this facility. The realization of owning such a facility would not have been made possible without the support of many individuals and local businesses. This facility is one of Maine’s first municipally-owned recreation vehicle parks.
Sites have sewer and water hookups. There are also electric hook-ups: 6 sites with 20 & 30 amps and 2 with 30 & 50 amps. In addition to these hookups each site has a picnic table and fire ring for outdoor cooking. There is also a dump station available.
