There's a…read morestream there...saw people rafting on it but there is no view of the water from any of the parking spots we saw. The RV and campsites were full. It's a small park so there aren't that many sites there. The bathrooms were open but the showers have been closed indefinitely. I presume due to Governor Brown who's milking this scamdemic for all it's worth. The park is pretty heavily forested so it may be a little cooler on a hot day but I'm guessing the flying insects must be murder. There are a few bbq setups which is nice and admission to just visit but not camp is free.

Nos. 2-7 meander out and into the humid park air. No. 1 returns, and No. 2 heads for the Bucket. Then No. 3. Nos. 4-7 stare at each other with icky faces, and when all have returned with Purelled hands, we stand in a circle next to one of the cars. Quiet. Awkward. We jump from face to face and then stare at our shoes. The other car, with its door open, and we listen to Stevie Nicks. A tan and perky lady walks by...she's inevitably going to share the germ-invested fate of 1-3. "How's the Honey Bucket?" she asks, and laughs. "Well," says No. 4, "it's always better with Fleetwood Mac."

Family-friendly | Beautifully maintained…read more 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.

However, based on these two sections alone, this is a fantastic park for any and all water-based activities. For once, the $5 day use fee seems justified, considering all the things that it offers. Additionally, there are miles of hiking and horseback trails, picnic areas, camp sites, and plenty of open green spaces (shaded or otherwise) for parties and other outdoor activities. It's a little far from home for us, but worth the trek!

It's a nice challenge in winter to get upstream and in summer it's a relaxing place for summer. I will say I was unimpressed with the host the last time I was there in summer. An older gentleman had gone off the road and was stuck. A few other lake goers were helping him without success. I went up to let the host know that there was a situation going on and he said "what am I supposed to do". I'll leave it there without putting any non factual opinions in.

One thing they don't really tell you is that some of the sights are cash-only, so we definitely lucked out by having cash on us. The trail definitely kicked our butts , but it was super, super beautiful and completely worth it. Some of the directions along the way can get a little confusing, but overall, it was an amazing experience. Would 100% do it again!
