The facility is very well maintained with fields having a turf infield and grass outfield. Hopefully this helps ballplayer with cleats selection. Behind the plate, you will find nets instead of the traditional fences which make spectators feel like part of the action. Most of the fan seating has overhead netting to protect the fans from the dreaded foul balls. The concession stand had a pretty good selection of snacks and the prices are reasonable. The main building has restrooms that are a bit tight and small. So if you need to use the restroom, I would suggest using the ones near the playground. Parking is very abundant, there is a large parking lot on the North side and plenty of parking in the adjacent neighborhood to the East . There are multiple restaurants nearby and grocery store just a couple blocks away.

The roads are super narrow gravel roads and the spots are mostly very small. We tried unsuccessfully to park in various spots with no luck. After a long time driving around and about ready to give up and go elsewhere we found a spot I was able to back into. Not sure if they have full hookup sites, all we saw was water and 30 amp. The park itself is very nice, trees everywhere, looks like a state park or something like that so the park itself would be 5 stars. If you have a smaller RV or are tent camping you may have a better experience. Also just about 1:30 from Mt St Helens which you should definitely check out!

The only sections open for winter were the small section we stayed in and the open field area. Unfortunately for us, the sections closed for the season were the prettiest...much more treed and private feeling there. We enjoyed one hike, the boardwalk-old growth-orchard sections and back to the campground. Apparently there is some damage to parts of the trail system here, but those we took were in good shape, just a bit muddy. Although we didn't get around to the lake, it looked gorgeous when we passed by driving in. Aside from the site across from ours after the teens left that morning, the grounds were all very clean. Pretty area and park...although I probably would only return if I could stay in the closed sections. :)

The Chehalis pumpkin train ride was a sweet, affordable way to enjoy the fall season with a…read moretoddler! For the price, it was absolutely worth the outing, and we appreciated the opportunity to slow down and enjoy a little family adventure. The station was cute, parking was fantastic, and picking up our preordered tickets was easy. The gift shop was very reasonably priced, and there were a couple of booths to browse in the gravel lot. Looking out the train windows at the animals and lovely fall leaves was a highlight, a simple, enjoyable experience to share with a little one. I especially appreciate that this is a completely volunteer-run operation. The volunteers were very nice and dressed in adorable seasonal outfits. Their time and effort make outings like this possible, and that deserves recognition! The area where I would love to see some improvement is the seasonal atmosphere. Our train car had just a couple of light-up pumpkins, so it didn't feel particularly decorated for fall. The field where we stopped had pumpkins scattered around, but very little additional decoration. Beyond one or two photo spots on the train platform, we didn't find festive backdrops for family pictures. After visiting, I better understood why there seem to be relatively few photos online showcasing the train decorations... there simply weren't many decorated areas to photograph. We also would have enjoyed some interaction during the ride, especially for the children. Although the volunteers were welcoming before boarding, we didn't see them in our car once we were underway. We asked about an opportunity for little ones to see the main engine area, but as far as we could determine from the staff, that wasn't available. Overall, my four stars reflect the excellent value, easy logistics, friendly volunteers, and lovely ride. A few more decorations and opportunities for children to engage would make this affordable fall outing even more memorable. We've also booked the Polar Express ride and are looking forward to it! With its considerably higher ticket price, we're hopeful for a more immersive holiday experience, with festive decorations, engaging characters, and more entertainment for the children. We would love to see this charming setting come alive with holiday magic!

We were in town for the weekend for other activities, and we decided to do this as a tourist activity as well. We took the last train of the day, so unfortunately we did not get to tour the museum as we were running late, but the train ride was amazing. The steam engine train is not running right now, which was a bummer, but they still run rides on a diesel engine train. We had a very funny conductor that kept us entertained. The ride was very peaceful and tranquil and on an older train so we appreciated the tranquility. There were not many people on the train with us, just two other couples. We were almost running late and the employee met us at the coach to give us our tickets, which was appreciated. The ride included pictures of the Chehalis River, scenery, wildlife, and more. The train and coach were definitely older, so we appreciated that classic vibe. I do know they also have special event dinner rides and such as well that they host several times per year. Overall, I definitely recommend the Chehalis railroad tour. It was a great experience!

Rusty Wallace race experience, South Sound Speedway, Rochester, Wa…read more Purchased a Groupon for a chance to "drive a nascar". Once purchased, you find that on short tracks you get to drive a late model style car. Completed my experience on Sunday October 6, 2014. Pros: Well organized, very safe, cars are set up good, location was good. Cons: you won't go fast, they yell at you the entire time you're on the track, if you have ever driven on a racetrack or have any drivers training, don't bother! Experience is not what's advertised. The hour long "drivers training" is really 20 minutes of how if you don't follow their strict rules they will kick you out. Fair enough, this can be dangerous. Then 20 minutes about how you're really not going to drive fast, disgusted as training. I understand if they didn't take safety precautions the cars would all be wrecked and probably a lot of hurt people. My issue is you have to coast through the turns and accelerate in the straights, but they use cones to mark where you can step on it and have to slow down. I estimate you coast on about 60% of the track. If you don't follow the rules, they will kick you out. In my case we had a VERY slow driver, so I got to follow him for much of my 10 laps. Why, you can only pass when they say and in the straights. Again, I know this is for safety. They have a "personal spotter" for each driver. We had one for three cars and they yelled commands constantly, but most of the commands I didn't know who they were talking to, even though we had car numbers. My recommendation: if you have never driven remotely fast or only owned a slow car, this is for you. Or just do the ride along experience, they rip it for you in a real NASCAR. The cost is probably in line since the cars are expensive, but you still don't get to drive fast, so keep that in mind. Oh, DON'T bother with the insurance unless you are a really bad driver. It's so regulated you would have to purposefully wreck the car. It's an easy $60 in their pocket.
