Also dangerous cliff warnings on the trails. The park is cute and fun for kids. There's a field for throwing football or soccer or picnic. Nice view of the river.

Love this park because the trails are accessible for those of us with mobility issues. With my…read morecane, I was able to make my way through the gravel and the dirt trails easily and take in the beautiful wildflowers of spring. In April, the prairie area is filled with deep blue camas, and a few white ones sprinkled in. In mass, they paint the prairie blue. Up close, you can see the intricate detail, petals in shades of blue and even purple, with bright yellow eyes in each flower. They are one of my faves! As you leave the sunny prairie, you are instantly in a shady patch of forest and feel far away from the city, even though you are not. Birds chirping is nature's music as you wander the various loops and check out wildflowers nestled under the trees. I spotted Star of Bethlehem, Wild Geranium, Saskatoon, False Solomon's Seal, Field Sorrel, Prairie Mallow, Woodland Violet, and some common daisy. There are benches along the way if you need a rest or just want to stop and breath in the luxury of being in this little magical place. Along the north side, there are views of the Williamette River. In addition to the trails which are off to the right, there is a playground with a basketball court, swings, slides and play gym, all of which were in use this weekday. There is also a decent bathroom, which is very much appreciated. This park is at the end of a neighborhood where the streets are narrow. As you navigate up through the hills, be aware that children are playing. Before the park there is a dirt area for cars and if you go just a little further, a small paved parking area for about 8 cars with one designated handicap spot. This is a fabulous neighborhood park that welcomes visitors like me. April is the perfect time to visit if you want to see the beautiful fields of camas.

There is an ample parking lot and seems like a great spot to spend a day wandering around and having a picnic. I came for an event in the evening which was just gorgeous an even with a huge crowd in one area, it was pretty perfect.

There's abundance of parking in the main parking space with a lot of shaded parking as well do it all the trees . If I lived a lot closer, I will definitely come here regularly just for a nice fresh air walk. Starting to hike near the bathrooms, there was a couple steep section so I would recommend not wearing sandals like I did and something a little more comfortable just in case.

This is such a sweet little park! The unique pieces of art all around the property are pretty neat…read more Lots of cute paths to walk on that lead to pretty views of Portland. We went on a sunny day and it wasn't over crowded. -1 star for personal reasons: my daughter is young (19 mo) and was able to swing on the baby seat swing, however, she was not confident to try the older play structure. The structure seems more appropriate for 2.5 and older. It has a pretty cool rock climber for older kids. My experience makes me wonder if there are parks in Portland that are more inclusive for all children and their abilities? I hope that Portland Parks and Recreation would be willing to rethink how they can be more inclusive when designing a park. I will be the first to admit I know nothing about building a park, but If I did I would want everyone to feel included.

Beautiful neighborhood park! Wow! This is not a park or playground from yesteryear, it's completely…read moremodern with very unique play structures and art. Plus walking paths through several acres of rolling hills with wonderful views immersed in nature. The splash pads are open again (until 7pm) and the kids were certainly joying them. The play structures are both stunning and interactive, even a look-out tower with a telescope that views a constellation ceiling. Very cool. Slides, step rocks, climbing structures, picnic tables in the open and shade, lots of benches, even water bowls for dogs - clearly a lot of thought went into the design and build of Spring Garden Park. It's close to Multnomah Village which is how I discovered it after visiting the food truck area and wanting someplace serene to enjoy my meal. Park right on SW Spring, just be mindful of not blocking the neighbors driveways as it's in a residential area. Close to SW Barbur.

This is a massive park, and my singular experience is limited to the two boat ramps, since I was…read moreinvited by a friend who wanted to paddleboard down the river, dragging my wife, my son and I behind them on inflatable tubes, so I can only comment on this limited experience. However, based on these two sections alone, this is a fantastic park for any and all water-based activities. For once, the $5 day use fee seems justified, considering all the things that it offers. Additionally, there are miles of hiking and horseback trails, picnic areas, camp sites, and plenty of open green spaces (shaded or otherwise) for parties and other outdoor activities. It's a little far from home for us, but worth the trek!

Interesting experience today coming to this park for the first time…read more When we drove up i immediately noticed multiple motor homes in various levels of condition. There was a group of young men at their cars drinking beer and smoking pot openly in front of the park. They weren't hassling anyone, but not what I'd want my kids to be smelling. There were some other questionable adults at the park. Some doges were present both on and off leash. The playground equipment was in decent shape with no obvious safety issues. We were the only ones playing on the playground which felt strange because it was such a beautiful day.

I figured I'd give my local park a review as the only one it has makes the park appear a lot more…read morequestionable than it actually is. There are currently no RVs or vans parked by the park. The group of kids the other reviewer mentioned no longer hang out in this area, either. There's a path that goes around the entirety of the park, which is small but does the job. It's not a big park, but it's a quiet park. Sometimes people do have their dogs unleashed in the wide open grassy area, so that's something to look out for, but I've never had a dog approach mine on our walk. Can't comment on the bathrooms or the playground equipment but the basketball court is in good shape.

Seems like most of the park is dedicated to sports games - soccer fields, baseball diamonds, and futsal courts. It has stadium lights. When I was there, it was empty. The whole place could use some TLC. And it could use real bathrooms, I could only see porta-potties. The community center at the southeast corner of the park has a pool and seemed to draw a lot of families.
