Cute kids playground. We came because Memorial Park also has tennis and pickleball courts. Not looking closely at the map, we realized when we got here that the playground and the courts are not super close to each other. So no playing a game with the adults while watching the kids - good to know for next time. read more

Memorial Park - Playground - Tennis Near Me - Wilsonville, Oregon

Family-friendly | Beautifully maintained 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. read more

Cute little park with plenty of variety! It's a great place to walk my dog, and there's water fountains during the summer to cool off. It has a kids park and some memorial signs to read through. My family loves coming here in the fall, the trees are beautiful! read more

What an amazing and beautiful park! Perfect to bring the family. So many interactive activities for the little ones plenty of space for picnics and outdoor times. Loved strolling through the adjacent woods. Landscaping is spot-on. All is very well-maintained, very clean and safe. The bathrooms were tidy, too. Parking was easy peasy... everything was perfect! My best community public park experience ever! Can't wait to come back for a picnic day. read more

LOVELY PARK! I don't have any close up photos that exclude the kids faces that I use to nanny's....but I just love this park! It's very clean and just a walk from the playground is the water feature+splash pad which is perfect for the summer. There is enough shade, picnic tables, bathrooms, covered areas, grassy areas...it has everything. The playground part has a huge structure that looks like a barn, complete with a little "pen" that has a springy horse that seats one, in the middle (it's like a mechanic bull situation but for 10 and under ). There's a different section that is friendlier for younger kids, and a huge slide (it was closed for repairs the times we went but didn't take away with how fun it was there!) Even the water feature seems clean which can be hard to do since it's more natural cement style. I will say the ONLY downside is that it can be a little more slippery because of the materials...just make sure your kiddos actually listen when you say "no running" or they might bang up their knees! Never have an issue with parking or finding an area to set up a blanket. read more

This park is awesome. I'm an avid hiker and usually do more remote hikes, but wanted to fill in some gaps on my AllTrails account and hadn't done this one yet. It seems like a typical urban/suburban park, but was pleasantly surprised by the remoteness of some portions and the amount of amenities it offers. There is a playground, restroom, river access, baseball fields and a disc golf course. Not a ton of elevation gain nor difficulty, of course, but considering how close it is to Wilsonville I am pleased with this park. I also noticed how well maintained it is- seeing workers actively maintain the paths and park, and there was barely any litter on the trails (unlike many parks in the Portland area.) So far this is my favorite city park I've experienced in the area, and definitely a great family friendly place to go! read more

Great place to take the kids to play with other children. Play structures, tennis courts, basketball, baseball, skate ramps, and hiking trails. read more

This is a fantastic park. In fact, this past year they expanded the park and created a new area called Murase Plaza at the corner of Wilsonville Road and Memorial Drive. It connects the library and town center to the rest of Memorial Park down the hill. This plaza has one of the best water parks I've seen for kids. It flows like a stream down a sloping hill and also has a separate area with spray fountains. One word of caution is that the water park is right at the corner of a relatively busy intersection and there isn't a fence to contain the little ones. I launched an electronic petition to correct this earlier this year, but the city wants to keep an "open look and feel." Murase Plaza also has an amphitheater, covered picnic area, play areas (including climbing walls and a little volcano like structure you try to scramble up on hands and feet) and historic barn. The Stein - Boozier Barn (great name!) is available for rent as well as the a couple other covered shelters. Between this park and Town Center Park, Wilsonville has become a fantastic destination for those hot summer nights. Also, if you are in the main park down the hill, it runs along the Willamette River. There are some lovely shaded trails, a dock to do some fishing or just skip rocks. There is even a skate park, play structure, dog park and tons of sports fields. read more

Beautiful my favorite park in the area of Wilsonville. Trails that most people can navigate and it's right on the riviera . We go daily it's 5 minutes from our home We absolutely . Love love love memorial park . Thank to all the great work keeping it clean because it us extra clean. No needles and such ( not that I have seen). I almost think that I should not advertise because them here come the crackheads from Weird Portland which has been ruined by the know nothing incomplete incompetent more interested in promoting their personal 5 year financial plan than ever taking a minute to help you the voter . read more

Love the water fountains for the kids. Felt safe at this park. Wish there were more Picnic tables

It's a really pretty, spacious, park. There is a forested area, picnic tables, a huge playground, and water fountains to play in. There's something for everyone! read more

Beautiful park that has everything. The upper portion of the park has a water spray for kids to play in summer, a fun looking playground, rolling hills, picnic tables, clean bathrooms. The lower portion has a few baseball fields, a skate park, different outdoor area facilities you can reserve for events, dog park, disc golf, and lots of trails through the trees along the river. In the summer they have movies in the park which is very fun. read more

I love this park. I can't even begin to tell you how much I love this park. I want to give it six stars instead of five. It is huge, and it has so many different areas to it. What I call the upper park, which is Murase Plaza and the adjacent spaces, has its own parking lot (entrance opposite the library parking lot). Murase Plaza itself has an enormous, wonderful water feature with different parts - a dancing fountain; a 'white water' river/channel that all but the newest walkers can handle - my son at maybe 20 months did okay in it and at 2 he adores it; cascades and waterfalls down rock faces. I know some people worry that it's so close to traffic - but several parts of it aren't, and you can move to those areas if you feel safer. I've never seen a kid head for traffic, they are all too busy focussed on the water, and it leads them downstream and away from the traffic. (And if you're wondering at how there's no one in the photos I got of the water feature there - I deliberately went on one of the cold, windy, slightly gray days we got this spring, when I was pretty sure it would be devoid of kids. It's usually PACKED with them on a hot sunny day, and I wanted to show the actual water feature.) There's also a picnic shelter near the fountains, and an expanse of rolling grassy hills. Over by the parking lot, well away from the fountain, is a gorgeous playground with a really tall slide built into the side of a man-made hill. The kids love it, I love that they don't have to climb a ladder to get to it, letting my 2-year-old take part with way more independence than a ladder would allow. There are also swings, including a fun new play-style swing for the younger set. A merry-go-round alternative that is a spinning, slightly off-level (deliberately) padded bench that is a lot of fun. "Rock climbing" structures, a balance beam, and a very cool webbed climbing structure for the older kids. And of course a teeter-totter. As much as I love that area, the lower park or main park (entrance further along the same road) is also gorgeous. It includes ball fields, tennis courts, a small playground with more traditional equipment (two sets, one for older kids and one for younger), but still more imaginative than the "standard" sets. There's also a tire swing and a collection of music instruments (xylophone, bell, drum-like structure, chimes) built in. Further down in that same park are several picnic areas including covered shelters that groups can rent; walking trails that lead through the woods and some down to the river; and access to the river including a dock. They are far enough from the playground area that there is no worry of a small child wandering off to them while your back is turned, at least not successfully, but you can drive back to a further-in lot and access them easily without having to walk much at all. The distance also means that the sounds of ball games and the playground aren't at all present in the picnic shelters or river area - if there are shrieking kids, it'll be because they're in the picnic shelters or river area - usually giving a nice buffer for people who would prefer to enjoy a quieter park. And for those who like to hike, there are fairly extensive trails connecting the two parts of the park also. You can spot-access the area you're interested in by car with a bit of walking, or you can make a day of walking and enjoy yourself that way. This park has SO MANY options, and they are SO wonderful. read more

We have a wonderful park including kids playground,dog park,small and large separate park...our poochs just loves to go there to meet other friends! It seems dogs relaxes in fewdays wants to meet more friends... keeping them on leash makes dogs stress up and not happy , start barking at others ,even start fighting.... they have their own rules among themselves and teach new comers as long as the owners does not interfere with leash up. Wonderful to see them free playing in their park! Appreciate the city pEk dept. To understanding dogs behavior.... wished new park will be as large as it is now as more dogs are showing up... read more

I loved this park. I read online about the Willamette waterfront being there and I grabbed some food and headed over to have a picnic but couldn't find the river! I did find a picnic bench and then we looked at the old barn and made are way to the water displays and I spent the last hour running through them like a 5 year old. So fun. There's tons of kids stuff to do, a huge pyramid slide, a rock wall etc. read more

The kids love Murase Plaza. As Jen K mentions the Plaza has a one of a kind water feature the kids love. It is like a shallow river flowing down a series of steps and then into a flume which runs down the hill. Off to the side are a series of computer controlled fountain jets which shoot water into the air. The kids just love this place. They love to run through the jets and toss a flip flop into the flume and watch it race down the hill. Highly recommended. read more

I recently saw a feature article in a local magazine titled "The Best Parks in Portland". Entry #1 in the list was Memorial Park with an apology along the lines of "Yes, the best park in Portland is not actually in Portland--it's in Wilsonville". I couldn't agree more, Memorial Park is really hard to beat. Memorial Park has about everything you could want in a park. Murase Plaza at the entry to the park has a fun water feature. The main park has specific fields for baseball, basketball, soccer, skateboarding, etc. There's a large dog-run area (including a leash-free area). There is a dock providing access to the river, (boats can dock here, but not actually put in here). There are two large shelters available to be reserved by large groups. And there are tons of trails out among the trees, (leading to secluded picnic tables for a nice family outing). read more

We absolutely love this park and often go to Murase plaza. As Jen has mentioned we love everything about it other then the fact that it is so close to a busy street. I have tried calling the city a multiple times about it but did not get connected to the right person. Glad to hear that others have a similar concern, do let me know where I can also sign up for this petition or if you'll came up with other things so as to make a difference. The "Open feel" reason pointed by the city does not sound good enough when compared to safety of the little ones. Thanks, Asita read more

We are out of town (S.Diego) and we found this park while staying with my sister in portland for vaction. We wanted a family day and Laura D had wrote on places to see around portland, or and thank you laura!! we went and it totally tired out my 3 kids. we went on two diffent occasions and it was wonderful !! Second time we took a hike and found a small waterfall and that was really cool. Even my 2 year old took the hike really well. Granted we didn't really visit any other park but why when this park had everything for my 8 year old, 2 year old and 7 month old!! usually if my 2 year old is happy the 8 year old says it's boring...they all loved it. WE all loved it! read more

In 13 years of living in Wilsonville, I've spent many a rainy Saturday morning in this park for soccer games or cross country meets. The park has many sports fields and the new parking lot is a huge improvement. Don't miss out on the chance to hike through the woods on the forest trails; it is truly a wonderful short hike and some incredibly mature forest to lose yourself within. There's also a dog park for your canine friends, and the kids will love Murase Plaza and the fountains at the top of the park. Next to Graham Oaks, one of my favorite spots in Wilsonville. read more

Just went to the splash pad area with my 4 kids. It is beautiful and large. Tons of space to climb and splash. Loved the waterfalls and fountains. Lots of benches to sit a watch your kids. The best I think was the nearby washrooms. Everything felt so clean and pretty. We were visiting a nearby tourist attraction and were so glad to find this little gem in the neighbourhood. Exactly what we needed to cool off and kill time during rush hour. read more

Memorial Park - Nice and spread out, with waterfalls and fountains. - Tennis Near Me - Wilsonville, Oregon

This park is AMAZING! I am a professional photographer and I have used it for several photo shoots and have loved the versatility of backgrounds and textures and colors and options. Which is one of the main reasons that my husband and I chose to get married there on April 22, 2013. The folks that run it at the Wilsonville Community Center (pretty much right across the street) were FABULOUS and answered all my questions and the price was amazing! The playground was a huge hit for the kids and overall we are so incredibly happy and can't wait to get pictures back so we can see all the great spots again. We would highly recommend this as a venue for a small wedding (up to maybe 75 people) or for a party or get together. If you are a resident of wilsonville it's seriously a price that can't be beat. And we love that the barn is open during the week and summertime so we can go back and relive our special moments. This park has covered area's, trees, big green hills, walking trails, picnic benches, the BEST playground ever, and much more. read more

One thing I love about Wilsonville is the parks and their central location. This park has a particularly cool slide that you can sit and slide or stand and surf down. The water park is great, with lines of fountains for the kids to play in and a mike-shift river, that is shallow and great for kids of any age. It's right by the Wilsonville Library. Close to the Dog Park and has a lot of space with well maintained, grass covered, rolling hills. read more

Lovely park - wish we had the dog here as there are play areas for dogs and people! Nice place to spend a quiet summer morning reading, or playing on the fields.

This place is huge. We only got to explore the play structure and swing area though with my 2 and 5 year old. Loved that there's play structures for different ages, so the babies have somewhere to go. The play structures are interesting too, not just your plain old playground. There are swings. There's also a huge slide on top of a hill that all the kids loved. Parking was easy. It's also great that the park was far from the big road. read more
