Came out to visit my mom in Beaverton and brought my pup with me. There was so much for both of us to explore. After an hour, we went to head out, and I noticed there was a whole other section to the park we hadn't even gotten to! There is also an enclosed off-leash dog park here. We didn't go in there since my dog doesn't do well at dog parks, but it's great for others whose pups enjoy that sort of interaction. I will make this a space I come to see every time I'm out this way for a visit :)

Alway great to have a friend or family member walk with you for it gets so much easier as well as supporting one another. Summerlake is a beautiful park. Walk through the bridges as if you are walking through the forest and the trees are big and tall. Different trails to go on. What I like is checking out the different types of animals at Summerlake. Usually, you see lots of geese, ducks, squirrels, bird all around. See people fishing at the lake. There is a dog park and kid's playground. Bathrooms are well maintained and clean. Will be back again.

Paved trails along with lots of green open areas and a picnic area. If you walk down to the low pier on the river and boats are passing by, be prepared to get water splashed on you from below as the waves slosh against the pier underneath you (but that feels pretty good on a warm day!).

But I love the space, how much room there is to run and play, picnic benches to enjoy lunch at a table or you can use anywhere on the vast green space to picnic. I also love that this is right across the street from Commonwealth Lake Park, if you want to venture on a walk and see some of the local wildlife, or try another playground. There is always easy and great parking and it's kept SO clean and SO lovely year round. I have 0 bad things to say about this park!!! There are no toilets except for porta potties so if you're okay with that, fear not. But if you're like me, drive the 3 minutes to Cedar Hills Rec to use a real bathroom.

I really enjoy this park and after visiting twice this weekend, I'm reminded that I should make an…read moreeffort to visit more often and experience it in every season. This park has extensive walking trails, both paved and unpaved with lots of variety in the elevation which makes for a great workout with inclines and downhills. There are tons of trees but also lots of open space so you can experience the sun and also have plenty of shade. With benches and other built-in seating (retaining walls) throughout the park, there are so many places to take a break, enjoy the sights and sounds of nature or meditate. There is also a play area for the kids as well as picnic areas and a nice wood burning fireplace, and rest rooms nearby. There are also tennis courts and parking is plentiful. On this visit we ventured off to the left of the main trail and did some serious hiking up the hill, which we surprisingly discovered backs up to a nearby neighborhood. It felt like we were truly away in the woods even though civilization is so close by! This park is a true example of why I love Oregon so much. Nature is so accessible and part of the community, not separate or hard to get to. It's magical that you can literally cross the street from your house and be surrounded by beautiful trees and wildlife.

Tennis court. A water ramp for kayakers/SUP. And then the nature trails! The best part of the park. You can walk next to the river and enjoy all the sights and sounds. Dog-friendly too, make sure they are on leashes tho. During some periods of the year, the park and trails get flooded so you can't walk in some areas but it's still cool to see.
