Family-friendly | Beautifully maintained…read more I have nothing but excellent things to say about this park. When we moved five years ago to Wilsonville, one of the highlights of this town are its open spaces and how family-friendly it is. This is just one of many parks in town. It's expansive too! It is located right across the street from the library and they offer so much-- water play (Murase Plaza), structured play, event spaces, nature play, tennis courts, soccer and baseball field, skate park, nature trails, disc golf, and fishing/boat dock. It is also stunning during the fall season with the trees in orange, red, and yellow. Parks and Rec are always maintaining this place. The latest addition to the park is the natural playground, and that is where we took our toddler recently. She LOVED it. She made some friends pretending to fish in the canoe and hang out in the teepees. The sand pit is a big hit too. Whether you're a family visiting or a local, I highly recommend checking this place out.

If you're out for a hike and then you come back and make dinner. It's barely even dark at 9:00. I wish the showers stayed open until 11:00. Also some of the camping spots have zero shade and or privacy. So while the facilities are clean and nice, do be selective on the spot you get. I would happily come here again with friends but not a place I would come to on my own as it feels very exposed.

My husband told me about this little park, so we dropped by today to check it out. It's...okay…read more They have a little play area for 2-5-year-olds, which seemed perfectly nice, and another play area for 5-12-year-olds, nicer. No infant swings, though. I had to use the restroom while I was there. First, at a park that has a play-set for 2-year-olds (never mind kids who have siblings), there's no baby changing table. And second, there's no soap dispenser. Not just no soap, no way to supply it. There's an air dryer (no towels)...in other words, nothing to keep stocked. But no soap in the restroom? Ew. Otherwise it was fine, seemed well-maintained, etc. But uninspired. If you live close by it's likely worth it, but I wouldn't bother to drive there. The views of the river aren't as good as at lower Memorial Park, and the playground isn't as good as the upper part of Memorial Park.

I'm a little surprised that this park has only been reviewed once, over ten years ago! We stopped…read morein as a pit stop driving down to Salem one day, and this park was a nice little reprieve from the sometimes-stressful traffic of I-5. There isn't much; there's a playground, a historic marker plaque, restrooms (that were oddly clean), plenty of parking and a former boat-launch that is now a very small beach. The park was very clean, quiet and kept up impeccably. Perhaps a good spot to have a picnic or dip your feet in the water, or use the restroom.

You can continue on the footpath from there. It's quite wet, and waterproof boots are necessary unless you like damp socks. The views are beautiful! We went slow, took lots of pictures, watched a juvenile hawk hunt, and sat to watch for butterflies on the Kincaid's lupine. We saw the Fender's blue butterfly, both a male and female! I had so much fun and came back the next week!

This is a nice little neighborhood park with grassy expanses, paved trails, picnic benches, and a…read morenice playset. There are some trees for shade but most of the park is unshaded - on a hot, sunny day it may not be ideal. I think one or two of the picnic tables might be partly-shaded in full sun, but the benches would not be. At least today, and my husband says the other couple times he's been, the lovely-looking grassy areas have been overwatered and a little squishy, even muddy in places, so sitting in the shade under a tree might not work well without a lawn chair. It's bounded on three sides by the back fences/hedges of the houses adjacent to it, the fourth is open to a very quiet residential road (SW Wimbledon Circle S). If you are coming on foot from the north, it may be a slightly shorter walk to take SW Wimbledon Circle N, where there is a little entrance path (paved, with signs at the entry to the park) through from the street between two houses. However, when they are watering near the fence, the paths in that area are in the spray path of the sprinklers.

On our way back home from McMinnville, we went through Beaverton to check out Bald Peak State…read moreScenic Viewpoint, which was a nice stop while in the area. I recommend checking out if you're around, with a viewpoint that looks out to Willamette Valley. On a Monday in the early afternoon, we stopped by Bald Peak State Scenic Viewpoint which has a lower parking lot area and on the upper area is where cars can park along the side for a quick stop. From the lower parking lot is a short walk to the upper area, where most people stop by to see the views of Oregon's wine country. There were a few picnic tables and some people had brought out their camping chairs and staked a spot to chill. It's a quiet, serene area that's high up to see the area. But if you're looking for a hiking trail, there isn't much of that here. It truly is just a viewpoint where you can stop and check out.

Took a nice picture from one of the picnic tables, but I immediately had my feet surrounded by yellow jackets!

The restrooms are brand new (sticker said 2021,) the trails are well maintained and easy, and it is right by the Willamette River. Not a lot of trash and random people hanging out, though I did see the cap of a needle (at least if someone was shooting up, they picked up their needle.) Lots of wild animal scat, which made me wonder what sort of wildlife I would see during the early morning and evening hours- it appeared to be bobcat and coyote, though I saw some that looked oddly like black bear. The hike's aren't terribly exciting, but it's easy and probably good for kids or people that don't particularly like hiking.
