This is a really great park sitting along the Willamette River. The park has a nice large…read moreplayground; it would only be better if there was a fence but there are steps so that slows a kiddo down. The Riverfront Park includes the playground and just grassy area (which is nice for all the folks we saw picnicking), and the carousel, plus food trucks congregate in the amphitheater area sometimes. The day we were there there were three of them and plenty of space for a couple more. Nice option to go grab a snack. There were a few picnic tables and we were able to claim one of them. The bathrooms were pretty gross. There was no soap or anything in them and one was in yucky shape. That led us to the port-a-potty, which was pretty gross but a little less gross than the permanent toilets. There's a large parking lot here since they must have lots of various activities taking place here. I'm glad we visited here (at a friend's recommendation) and got to enjoy this (mostly) well-kept park.

A carousel ($2 person-go to gift shop to buy the coins) Large grassy areas to run or let the dog roll around (on leash). Really large area of outdoor play area with climbing, swings and slides. Of course the iconic walking bridge. Recommend: pick up some bbq from The Back Porch on Edgewater (5 min drive) and picnic. See review of restaurant

This park is much like Riverfront park with some great improvements…read more The fields are separated, so you need not worry about soccer / Frisbee clashes any longer, each can tourney in peace. The bark dusted playground has the duel play structures but also has swings, and a climbing rock. You'll find the same long smooth sidewalks and a covered pavilion about half the size of Riverfront's but you'll also find tennis and basketball courts here. The splash pad does not just spray up from the ground. It has pipes that mist in all directions and deluge you from above. It is a little bigger and has more fountain points to, so more children can play, and get a little more creative with it. This park really gets all classy with the planning, putting the splash pad in a place that doesn't creep into the shade, making sure there are trees by the playground so parents don't bake and the ace in the hole? That would be the ample parking that is not located a quarter mile from the playground! Get's an A+ from this mom. The one warning I have is that when the soccer games and birthdays fill the park, it brings the 1 lane traffic to a standstill. In that event park across the street at the Fred Meyer's or come back in an hour. It usually clears out fast.

Lots to do, and generally interesting and interactive exhibits for the kids to engage with. Some things keeping it from a Five-star: grandparents found it difficult to navigate.

Outside exhibits were ostensibly fun, but we happened to come on a VERY hour day, and most of the outside metal play structures were too hot to play on.
