Great place to fish and have fun. Well kept and clean park. Friends tell me of very enjoyable experiences.

Hardly any picnic benches. Really loud and it seemed like it was a men’s cruising spot. We stopped for lunch in the RV and to walk the dog and it had a really weird vibe. Single men sitting in cars and obvious spots that men had been together at. Stay away if you are a family.

Relaxing. Didnt catch any fish, but a bad day fishing is better than a good day at work, right?

This is a great little spot, located just off the freeway. It has river access, bathrooms, picnic tables, and even some spots to grill. Whether you are just looking to stretch your legs, meet up with family, or enjoy activities around the river, this is a quick little spot to do it.

Nice park with plenty of birds and plants. Little bit of litter, but pretty good for being a public park in Ontario

Been hear a lot and over all its a great place! Even better when they did firework show. But that was the 4th of July of 2003 though. Not sure if they still do that?! Anyways at night time its a beautiful place to sit and relax just to watch the stars reflect off the water.

Not much to it. Mostly a picnic area. The waters edge looked somewhat polluted. Understand I was in just a small area right off the highway. It looks like a good place to launch a personal water craft. It does have a public restroom area. The grass was being cut while I was there so it was looking neat. Great place to go to just think and chill. You are able to walk your dog but must be leashed.

My wife and I have stayed there multiple times. It is set in beautiful high dessert terrain next to the Snake River.I especially appreciate the heated showers and long season.

Review №22

We stop here a lot in our travels for a rest break to the coast. We’ve seen lots of people fishing here off the banks in on small boats from the boat ramp area. There’s plenty of lawn and lots of shade from the big trees.

Review №23

This place was peaceful even tho it is really close to the freeway which is also very nice. This is a great place for fishing or a picnic or to even just sit back and watch the fish jump in the river. There enough people you dont feel nervous about being alone here and the cops do regular drive thru so its also safe. I come here fairly often when Im in the area and have an extra few minutes.

Review №24

Nice to let the dogs stretch before more traveling. The portapottys worked but eeew.

Jo
Review №25

Its an okay park. A little small, the river water is pretty nasty near the park.NO BATHROOMS! That got the 3 stars knocked off. Went there in August and the bathroom has signs that say closed during winter). My guess is something is broken in the bathrooms and the State is too cheap or lazy to fix it. They have a porta-potty if your okay fighting off the hordes of flies.Other than that, picnic tables are evenly spread across the park as well as charcoal grills.

Its a nice shady place for a quiet picnic, but during the hour my wife and I were there we observed about six occasions of illegal activity, I wouldnt be comfortable leaving my vehicle unattended or having a family function here due to risk of damage, injury or worse...
