Peacocks and peahens
Mar C.

If you consider North Plains as part of the Portland metro area, then this is hands down the best place for beginner disc golfers within Portland, in terms of scenery and variety. 3 courses for different skill levels. Very woodsy, earthy, forested courses. One of them has a hole where you throw your disc across a pond. My partner said that was the easy course, but it's challenging for a newb like me. Bring an extra disc and a towel! During covid times, there weren't a lot of people, so that is a big plus. It's $5/pp and you can play disc golf all day. Watch for the peacocks and peahens, they are a hoot!

Really beautiful place that is actually a wedding venue, but we went here for fishing. It was our first time fishing. The guy at the front explained us the whole process. When we got to the water, it still took us a while to get the hang of it but we finally caught two good size trouts in the 2.5 hours we were there. You are expected to clean and cut your fish yourself, which we really weren't ready for. But it was an experience! You pay $5 per person to enter the grounds and then $8 a pound for the fish you catch. All the gear is available there. Just bring maybe an ice box to put your fish in if you have a long drive back.

8/24/2018 - Faerieworlds - Abney Park on the main stage
Mikhail H.

I am amazed that I experienced this for the first time this August! A friend gifted me a three day pass for Faerieworlds and this setting made that experience magical! The first day I got there super late in time to see the last band and spend time with friends, walking them back to their campsite. I honestly had passes for camping too but was a bit too nervous when I had never even been to the site at all to go all in like that. I will say I was very impressed with the Faerieworlds volunteer staff the whole weekend as they were so welcoming and on top of it. The markers leading you to and fro were very clear, especially with a volunteer to also point the way. It was super confusing to find my way around in the dark so things were far easier the next day...and I even saw a few of the peacocks with their young! The paths throughout were so perfect for all the rows of vendors. The pond is gorgeous and the huge stage setup is magical - there is not a bad spot to watch from, whether you are on the lawns or right up front. The camping area offers an incredible amount of sites but I do warn you that this whole area is quite challenging for us that can walk well.

Bob was excellent to work with and the venue was everything we had imagined and more. The website is a bit outdated but I was blown away with how beautiful the venue was in person. Bob runs a tight ship and is helpful in all aspects of wedding planning. We made the leap for a destination wedding and booked Horning's Hideout Creekside sight unseen, it was a fantastic decision and I have not had a moment of regret.

People of Oregon: Why has this magical locality not yet been yelped?!? It takes a girl from California to be the first? So be it. A 30-minute drive from Portland will bring you to Horning's Hideout, a wonderful, secluded place that caters to the outdoorsy person in you. Beautifully nestled in an Oregon canyon, Horning's offers a gorgeous setting to have a picnic, camp, fish, play disc golf, or just enjoy the scenery filled with tree-lined hills, a beautiful lake, and peacocks. Lots and lots of peacocks. But, the real reason I've ventured to Horning's is because of the the live music events they host on their natural amphitheater. After a few years of legal battles, Horning's has recently been granted venue status once again. I sadly just missed out on the annual Northwest String Summit but I can't wait to visit for another upcoming event. To be honest, I don't even like to camp but I don't mind at all when I'm at Horning's. I love spending a weekend here, listening to my favorite bands, be amongst old and new friends, sleep under the stars and trees, and enjoy all the magical beauty that Horning's has to offer. Oh, and get woken up by the peacocks. Two things about peacocks I didn't know before Horning's: they can fly up into trees and they are loud! If you're a local who hasn't yet been or an out-of-towner like me that needs a place to rejuvenate the soul, go check out Horning's Hideout. Thank you, Bob Horning, for sharing your glorious place with the rest of us.

It's so nice to be out in nature and all you can hear is the stream in the distance, the blowing of the win through the old trees and the sound of your feet on the earth. What a wicked awesome day I had playing some disc golf. Played the canyon course and was super fun/ worth it. There were some challenging holes and a lot of places to work with your mid range/ throwing putters. Looking forward to playing the other two courses the next time I come. Super convenient "pay to stay" parking meter which took your card. I was a little worried that I was going to have to pay my $4 in change! $4 for each person you bring down. Will for sure be back with some friends ready for a full day of disc golf + some lunch.

Running up that hill! My wedding at Hornings, this is the hill at the creekside location.

This past September I got married at Hornings Hideout, creekside to be specific. I can't go on enough about how amazing the venue is. It's set close enough in to the city that getting guests to come isn't hard but it's far enough away to forget that we are so close to the city. I made jokes about my wedding, saying I was going to have hundreds of albino peacocks...little did I realize that there actually was one that greeted my at my site on arrival and right before we left the next day. Pricing is insanely cheap, that means they fill up pretty quick and if you want to get married during the Summer you better get there at least 8 months in advance! My favorite part was that on top of the super low rental fee we also go the venue for 24 hours, that left us so much time to prep and tear down without going over. Bob is one stellar dude. I couldn't have asked for a more laid back, helpful and all around friendly guy to work with during such a hectic time. He went above and beyond what was expected and I appreciate him so much.

This place is a disc golf mecca. I spent a morning up here with a friend to play a round. There are 3 18-hole courses including a very difficult gold-tee course. We opted for the gold-tee course and paid dearly. We had a blast though. The course is very well laid out and offer a variety of challenges. Almost every hole involved throwing through a patch of heavy forest with some elevation change. Most baskets were perched on a hillside so even the putts were a challenge. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to enjoy the lovely lake and other amenities during my visit but they seemed very pleasant. This is a little island of utopia in the hills outside of Portland. Loved it!

At our camping spot.  Beautiful night and the only ones camping there!  Fully powered spots, GREAT bathrooms, and $5 5 minute showers.

This park is a total gem--thoughtfully designed, beautifully shaded, and perfect for families. There are plenty of swings and a great variety of play equipment to keep kids engaged for hours. One of the things I appreciated most was the visibility--there's seating thoughtfully placed all around the park, so no matter where your child is playing, you can easily keep an eye on them. There's even a grassy area under the trees where you can lay out a blanket and relax. Even on a hot day, the metal slides stayed cool thanks to the shade, which is a rare and welcome surprise! The kids there were all friendly, and the parents seemed attentive and involved, creating a really positive, safe vibe. My kids had a blast and would've stayed much longer if I hadn't forgotten snacks--lesson learned! We'll definitely be back, this time with a picnic and more time to explore.

Forest Grove, Oregon "A place where families and business…read morethrive" We took a drive out to Forest Grove on Superbowl Sunday, before the big game. The drive to Forest Grove felt long from Portland, but it was a nice drive. The reason was to visit Kama'aina Comfort foods, we got our take out from the food truck and had to find a place to enjoy our lunch. My daughter searched for a park on her phone and we happen to be nearby Joseph Gale Park. Who is Joseph Gale? He was an explorer, fur trapper and member of Oregon's Provisional Government Executive Committee (1843-44) He was Commander in Chief of the Oregon Territory Milita and also championed the rights of Native America. A small park in the Forest Grove Community, located right next to Joseph Gale Elementary school. We found street parking right in front of the park. Joseph Gale Park as I observed had a small playground with a few picnic benches. I noticed on this beautiful cool Sunday, 2 families utilizing the playground, a gentleman utilizing the picnic table reading a book, and my family enjoying our lunch on another picnic table. This park is small, very green and also clean. The Amenities at Joseph Gale Park includes: barbeques baseball fields, picnic tables playground equipment restrooms, softball fields Parks and Recreation Director: Tom Gamble Parks Supervisor: Matt Baum Phone: 503.992-3237 Overall, We enjoyed our afternoon visit here at Joseph Gale Park and can't wait to be back again at this park and neighborhood!!

Beaver Falls - Standing underneath Beaver Falls is a Must-Do!

What a wonderful under the radar waterfall this is...Beaver Falls!…read more Located 6 miles east of Clatskanie, Oregon, this area near the Columbia River is beautiful. Let's get straight to the heart of what Beaver Falls is all about... If you plug "Beaver Falls Trailhead" into Google Maps, you'll have no problem finding it. Then just park along the side of Highway 30 and hike 1/3rd of a mile through the forest to the base of the falls. It's that easy. When I visited on a Thursday in early afternoon of July, there was hardly anyone around which was good for taking quality photos. Best of all, you can swim in the waters. So definitely bring a bathing suit, towel and a pair of water shoes so the rocks won't hurt your feet while entering the pool beneath Beaver Falls. The water is cold but once you jump in and get comfortable, it's a terrific setting. There's also a long rope where you can swing across and splash down below. It's great for kids (and adults too, lol) to have playful times. For me, I was content soaking in the pool and appreciating the surroundings. More info... - It's free to visit. - Cell phone reception works fine. - You can walk underneath the falls! This is a Must-Do. You can capture some amazing moments standing beside Beaver Falls. It's not hard or dangerous and offers a unique perspective. - Beaver Falls is just one of many outstanding waterfalls situated around Oregon and especially near the Columbia River. There's also Lower Lewis River Falls, Panther Creek Falls and Spirit Falls, to name a few. - You can spend a few hours hanging out or as little as 30 - 40 minutes. It depends on your time horizon. But overall, it's really pleasant to be here that I'd suggest bringing snacks, lunch and maybe having a picnic. This Beaver Falls is absolutely so much fun to hang out at. When you can swim in the waters, swing from a rope and even walk underneath the falls, It makes for a worthwhile summer visit.

This park has extensive walking trails, both paved and unpaved with lots of variety in the elevation which makes for a great workout with inclines and downhills. There are tons of trees but also lots of open space so you can experience the sun and also have plenty of shade. With benches and other built-in seating (retaining walls) throughout the park, there are so many places to take a break, enjoy the sights and sounds of nature or meditate. There is also a play area for the kids as well as picnic areas and a nice wood burning fireplace, and rest rooms nearby. There are also tennis courts and parking is plentiful. On this visit we ventured off to the left of the main trail and did some serious hiking up the hill, which we surprisingly discovered backs up to a nearby neighborhood. It felt like we were truly away in the woods even though civilization is so close by! This park is a true example of why I love Oregon so much. Nature is so accessible and part of the community, not separate or hard to get to. It's magical that you can literally cross the street from your house and be surrounded by beautiful trees and wildlife.
