This park is so beautiful. The massive trees that litter the place provide tons of shade and a pretty mesmerizing view when you look up. Theres a cute little play area where theres almost always kids playing so your little ones wont be bored either. Theres barbecuing and what seems to be a little clubhouse although I havent actually been inside. Very cool place though!

My doggo loves this park. The long walking paths are softened with bark dust and well maintained. There is lots of open space for you and your pet to run or play.

Great place to take your children if you have any or to just stroll around. I personally love this park because of the huge trees for shade on a hot day...

Love this park good place to chill sometimes theres people sleeping on the beaches but most of them are harmless. Tho every so offen ill be siting there and a teenager(different on each time) will walk by and warn you cuz they got jumped.but thats not to werid in portland Go in a group.If you wanna smoke a cig. I say go to the outter part of the park as there are kids toward the front. Go where you wont bother them or their family cuz you do get a parent every so offen that things just cuz you have a pack of cigs your trying to get kids to do the same. Basically watch out for Karens that attack while your just minding your own business

Friendly staff. Fun and interesting kids swim play area for toddlers that gets deeper with a water slide and current. Downstairs has a small skating rink with a wooden floor. Nice gym. A variety of affordable classes. Right next to a super neighborhood park. This is a Portland gem.

One if our favorite parks! They have forgotten to take down the caution tape since Multnomah County reopened. Other than that, it is great!

Great community center. Pool is great for families with designated family swim times and shallow areas. Roller skating is super fun and the community classes are amazing. Sometimes it can get crowded in the pool during open swim times but still a great place hands down.

Wonderful place to take the kids on a day off. The pool can be crowded at times but my kids love the rope swing and the slide. The active pass is affordable for a family on a budget. At $67 a month for a family of 6, it is a nice place to tire out the kids without breaking the bank. They also have a gym and a big basketball court indoors so regardless of the weather its fun for the kids. Lots of different hours to work with any schedule. The family swim is less crowded and is great for families with younger kids. I would recommend this place for anyone with kids. If you are looking for a one day activity its not bad on price either, adults are $6, teens are $5 and young kids are $4 for the day.

Mostly I haven’t met the visitors of this park, but each time I come I learn more about them. Some are like me, which can be reassuring, but I tell myself, Jack, it can be good to meet people who aren’t so similar as well. Next time we’re both there, I’ll say hello, even if we aren’t the same, I promise. Also, if I were a teen, I’d totally use that teen hang out.

They have a fantastic play area outside. Inside they have a Swimming for a low cost. Young kids are allowed to go down the slide If they are sitting on an adults lap. I was also told that they have roller skating here but I did not see the roller rink.

Love this park with its large, old trees. Theres plenty of room and shady areas. My kids enjoy the playground here and happily spend hours there at day camp. Theres a restroom near the playground and picnic tables. The community center is great - my kids especially enjoy the pool and the roller skating.

I love this park and community center! The big trees and the path through the park are a really nice way to connect with nature in the city. There are also picnic spaces and a kids playground. The views of the park from the community center pool (which is huge and beautifully built) make for a wonderful swim.

Ohh, but its cold in the shade in December! Its amazing my boys played as long as they did. The riding toys kept them happy for quite a while, although I didnt realize until a staff member showed up that one spring on the airplane was disconnected. Oops! Dont take caution tape off where its been placed, or let your kids do that!!

Love the pool, the grounds with all the play structures, splash pad water for little guys and picnic tables out of the sun. It is big and if your little wanders off its by a street so be careful. Also they have a craft area where they open their craft room hut and put out crafts for kids to stop and do for free. The pool has a world pool and built in kiddie structure in a very shallow end where water falls from buckets above and go into other buckets and go in and out of tubes for the littles too play with they have big slides, life jackets and a lap pool for people who just want a quiet peaceful swim you can go during certain hours and there are no children aloud.10/10

Ive always enjoyed this park. Its got all the basics plus a lot of tall trees that keep it reasonably cool in the summer. Its sad to see that its now November and some of the equipment has been fenced off since before last summer. I hope they put a little bit of money back into this park soon.

Love that they have a pool and playground. Its reasonably priced, and theres no time limit for the pool. Although there is pool start and end times which youll have to look up. Afterwards you can go out to the park and play or just take a pleasant walk. Great place for families and a great park in the middle of the busy city.

There is a lot to do here. We go for the kids pool. The pool has a waterslide, whirlpool, and a lazy river. With a low cost of admission, its the perfect way to tire out any child with too much energy.

Great atmosphere, safe and enjoyable for the whole family. Public restrooms on site, playground for the kids, bar-b-q areas, great community center with public pool on site. (Check with community center about what hours the pools open to the public because they do have swimming classes and such scheduled throughout the day) All in all a great park. I definitely recommend checking it out!!

To crowded and someone actually pooped in the pool when we were there for a birthday party. The pool was shut down and my kids got out. Shockingly just minutes after the doo doo was removed they reopened the pool. My kids did not and have not returned to the pool. Yuck.
