One of my favorite parks on the Willamette River. Round rock beach, I would recommend to anyone who plans on visiting here to bring water shoes or tennis shoes because the beach will shift under your feet and I can Tell you from experience that its not a soft landing. The boat ramp and shallow grade means there will be tons of jetskis and ski boats making wake but they put on a heck of a show. Beach Patrol is pretty stringent so its not a party destination. Great for families and people looking to take a dip in the water.

Great place to run! Could use a load or two of dirt/sand mix to keep from banging on some of the wood supports hear or there, but a great overall RC park. Loved my time here. There is one large track and one small track.A+++++-

Great little boat ramp, kinda difficult to launch your boat, once you get the hang of it, its great. Beware of the gravel bar, follow the signs out, till you get to the river.

Not sure there is much I can say. Been coming through here for 20 years or so. Just a nice spot in town to get by the water. Usually full of people who are happy to be by the water as well.

The BMX jumps here are wild! Not for beginners at all. Sick doubles, steep tables and a fun hip at the end. Everything here is big but if youre up for it, theyre the best jumps for like 30 miles. Also the rc track is fantastic and free. Its a little steep so a 4x4 is best. But the guys that maintain this place are real pros and willing to help out the newbies.

We got married here in the park. The only downside was when someone let their dog poop right next to our gathering & then admonished us for asking them to keep their dog away. A friend had their service dog with them & they walked away when their dog needed to go potty.Be prepared for people & dogs to be around & possibly not respect the space youre using for the day.

This has been a great place for baseball and softball tournaments. I use the boat ramp regularly, but probably the dirtiest on the river, but also the closest to my home, so I use it the most when getting on the river.

Nice park. Good boat launch. I like the rocky bar area, where you can fish, let your dog swim, or even launch your boat too, not to mention park your rig and trailer if the lot is full.

Although I have visited this awesome park a number of times, with each new arrival something astonishing takes place in one of the many inviting parks specially designed attributes. My son finds the park very inviting when it comes to racing his mini race car...I have visited to fish on the river and spent a large amount of time helping a friend in his vegetable garden that is shared with many in a Giant park garden space.

Always a wonderful place but the police dont care about the broken laws when it is reported it happens in front of them. You can see under age drinking and drug use and on memorial day a group said loudly there were too Americanos at the part by the river.
