What a great little place for hiking! I would call it more of a nature walk rather than a hike, but…read morethat's what makes it great for small kids or those in wheelchairs. There are two short trails that are less than a mile each. The Streamwatch Trail takes you along the water and even has a little underwater fish viewing area. There weren't any fish in March, but it must be pretty cool to watch the fish underwater during busier seasons. The Wetlands Trail takes you along a wooden boardwalk to literally go through a wetland area. Most of these trails are stroller/wheelchair friendly, but there are some parts that are on dirt and gravel, which may be a little trickier. There are also a lot of picnic tables along the Streamwatch trail, which would be perfect in warmer weather.

Been meaning to stop by and see what Wildwood has to offer, and finally did last weekend…read more Clearly they have loads to offer in the other seasons, but it's still peaceful and offers up a decent stroll or hike in winter. We took both the Wetlands and Streamwatch trails. You've got to be verrry careful right now on the oh-so slippery boardwalks of the Wetlands. It was very icy throughout the entire trail. The Streamwatch trail winds you through picnic areas, along the river, and by the underwater viewing area. We drove around past other trails and over to the family meadow and picnic area. Plenty of parking and the restrooms that were open were clean. There were a few structures and trail aspects that needed some tending to, but overall it's a lovely recreation area...peaceful now but probably loads of fun for families in the springtime!

This was my son's second year at Milepost 35, and it's hands-down the highlight of his summer. The…read morecoaching and counselor team--Ezra, Owen, Aiden, Finley, and Tate--were absolutely fantastic. They gave him thoughtful advice, individual attention, and tons of encouragement, helping him level up his skills in a big way. The riding area is super well-maintained, with a great mix of features for all levels. Whether it was jumps, technical trails, or skills zones, there was always something new to try--and it was all set up in a way that felt challenging but safe. Yes, the cabins are a little rough around the edges and the food is just okay--but honestly, that's not why you come to Milepost 35. This place is all about the riding, the coaching, and the community. We'll be back every year until he ages out. Highly recommend.

My son had a lot of fun at his week of camp. He progressed a lot and had a good time.read more

I LOVE coming here! I first tried out this place a little more than a year ago, with aspirations of…read morestarting a new hobby. I then tried to fish for trout out in nature but due to my track record and queasiness of what to do after I catch, I just end up continuing to come here!! The staff has ALWAYS been extremely helpful for me when I have issues removing a hook, or any questions I may have. They even give advice and show you how to do XYZ. You can bring your own gear, or use theirs for free! No license required since it is a farm. You will pay based on inches of the fish, and they will gut it and cut it and you will be on your way to a delicious dinner!!

We visited this farm recently and unfortunately had a very negative experience. The staff we…read moreinteracted with were unfriendly and spoke to us in a harsh and unprofessional manner. We were told that if the roots of the fish became tangled, they would not replace them, and we were advised to bring our own equipment in a way that felt unnecessarily aggressive. The interaction was uncomfortable, even for the children with us. Based on our experience, we would not recommend this place. "We've visited this fish farm many times, but this visit was extremely upsetting. The staff refused to give us the equipment we needed and spoke to us in a harsh, unprofessional way. When the owner came over, he was aggressive, told me not to speak, and asked our whole group to leave -- including our two kids (9 and 11) who were checking in with us, and even my daughter's Girl Scout group who had not spoken to him at all. He raised his voice at the children, leaving them very upset. Based on this experience, we cannot recommend this place.

Tony was amazing & shared some great insight with my husband and I. He was patient & informative…read more We bought my first fly rod setup from this shop and it comes with a lifetime warranty. We will 100% give our business to this shop if we're in the area again. To the person who gave this shop zero stars for no women's gear. You should get a grip. Women do not typically fly fish as much as men. To expect a country location to stock full options for women is unreasonable in my opinion. I'm female & I ordered my gear online knowing that every shop won't have the same options for me that they do for my husband.

Just incredible!…read more Worth every penny! These folks know their stuff when it comes to fishing for steelhead! Just returned from their full day winter steelhead class and loved it! The shop is very organized and has the teaching down to a science. They offer a 2 day package where they will take a novice single hand fly fisher to use a 2 handed rod in a one crash course day. Fly fishers who use 2 handed rods are called spey anglers. Most of the class did not bring a spey rod and was provided with one from the guides. Then the second day is the actual time on the water learning how to read the waters, rig up your spey rod, and fish the long stretch of the Sandy river in cold waters, rainy weather, and large waves of water. Mark Bachmann and Hawkeye Hawkins were the instructors teaching how to spey cast. The class helps you focus on presenting the fly instead of worrying about what type of fly or how to rig it. The shop has everything for the fly fisher! I had to buy a 2 day fishing license which was done quickly, grabbed some flies, got a new 3D skagit line, and some tools. The shop provided the instruction at their conference room in the back of the shop which was great to receive classroom instruction. Ted Neely was our guide on the Sandy River for the second day. Ted is a local guide who has the guiding, boating, and instructor skills for anyone wanting to fish on the Sandy, Deschutes, or Clackamas rivers. Ted took us down the very scary (to me) Sandy river between Dodge Park and Dabney Park thru some very hairy white water rapids on his pontoon boat. Ted knows the river well, has all the fishing spots covered, and navigates thru all the water with ease. Ted provided a hot lunch which was very welcome after going thru rain, waves, and fishing. If you are new to going down the rapids on top of pontoon boat, make sure you cover this with Ted prior to your trip. You have to be dressed well from head to toe. Luckily I had all the gear including breathable winter waders, river boots w/ cleats, thermal fleece and wool underneath as well as wading jacket. If you are not prepared you will get cold! Take all your stuff in a waterproof dry/boat bag because the rapids will wash you from head to toe! Definitely a great experience with a great guide who knows his local waters. People from all over the country came to this class which means a lot for those who want to learn how to fish for these elusive creatures. I learned so much in one day that I am now confident in returning to fish for winter steelhead fish! The class practiced catch and release to keep the fishery active for all. Totally amazing class - must do for anyone interested in learning how to take years off fishing for steelhead.
