    There really isn't much to say about Kelso, best thing about it is driving through it lol. The Kelso Mall is ok, its your standard mall, and the town does have a Red Lion hotel, but other then that, unless you live here IMO not much reason to stop here. It is right on the river though, so thats a plus.

    The playground!

    Beautiful, relaxing, peaceful spot…read more My husband and I visited this dock 2 days ago after going to my Grandmother's 90th Birthday Party in the area. There is a bronzed statue of Sacajawea near the bridge by this dock. The autumn foliage here is just breathtaking - bright yellows, brilliant oranges, and cranberry reds - and there are lilypads *everywhere* which really add to the beauty of the place. The dock itself is a mostly-rectangular-shaped, with slanted corners, and it is about 20 - 30 feet wide and about 15 - 20 feet long. From the dock, you can see glorious amounts of lilypads, a good section of the lake, a proud tall fountain that emerges from the center of the lake, the bridge to your right (about a 2-minite walk from the dock), and lots and lots of trees. Off in the distance behind the dock, there's a playground, which was full of happy kids playing in it on the Saturday that we visited. There were quite a few people out at the lake itself this past Saturday, however, it never felt crowded, and we were the only two people on the dock itself. There are no benches on the actual dock, but there's a nice park bench very close to it. I have some memories of Lake Sacajawea from when I was much younger, since I have family in this area, but I hadn't been there in many years until this past weekend. I highly recommend visiting if you're in the area. It's a lovely place to chill for a while or take a short stroll.

    This is an awesome place! Just a beautiful, bright spot in the middle of town. Enjoy picnics,…read morewalks, fish off the dock or bring your kids or grandkids to the park.

    This needed an up-to-date review, from someone who's lived here all his life, that's Elite on Yelp…read more Trust me, the person who gave it five stars is closer than the person who gave it one star, and was sounding extremely specific for the time. I don't mean to be rude or roast that person. Onto the review. I have grown up with this park. I went to a very very VERY tiny school, essentially across the street. We'd constantly be walking over to do school, anything really. I have very fond memories of how nice and big the park was, no real issues to think of. Fast-forward to the present, no nostalgia goggles, this is a very nice park. They just put in a disc golf course, which is very exciting. It's still very spacious, very clean and nice...outdoor environment? They keep the grass, trees, etc, very well kept. Sorry, best way I could explain that. When I went, the playground was busy and still looked as nice as ever. There's still plenty of picnic tables or seating in general. I didn't go into the bathrooms, but those have never been "a truly horrifying experience" for my money. You can do SO much here! There's plenty of room to ride bikes or other "wheeled" activities, there's a volleyball court, there's a soccer field, a basketball court. I may even be forgetting something. OH! You can even just get a good walk or run in. Overall guys, this is an excellent park even if I didn't grow up coming extremely regularly while making some of my favorite childhood memories. They keep all the greens watered and healthy, the parks and other facilities as well, and overall you'll just find that you're likely never bored here.

    Really nice park! Picnic tables, lots of horse shoe pits, baseball fields, soccer, and play ground…read morefor kids! It's crazy on the weekends though, turns into little Tijuana!! FYI ;)
