River Woods, located between the Des Moines River Greenbelt and E 14th Street, is a residential and park-adjacent Des Moines neighborhood with wooded trails and riverbank views. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Birdland Marina area, where boat ramps, picnic pockets, and the riverfront path set a laid-back, outdoors-first rhythm. Housing leans toward mid-century ranches and practical split-levels on curving streets framed by mature trees. Birdland Park and the Neal Smith Trail shape daily routines with long, flat miles for walking and biking. The Des Moines River provides a constant geographic anchor, with seasonal water levels and wildlife sightings changing the scenery.
