A small neighborhood park with a nice view of downtown Portland and the industrial, railroad areas north of city center. The best views are actually from the Kaiser hospital parking lot next to the park. There is a small playground, a dog park and some green spaces.

THE most beautiful park in all of Portland, & ANYwhere! As a local, I have seen this place change & grow over the many years now, & this magnificent place only gets better & better! Thank you to the fine parks & rec. staff, and, the Rangers whom keep it safe whom maintain it... you guys & gals are the BEST!!! GO DUCKS !!!

Amazing variety of healthy and aged trees. Come enjoy the leaves changing colors. Dog friendly on leash.

Beautiful park. The merry-go-round is made of metal and brings back memories of being a kid - before everything had to be made of plastic, foam, or rubber. My daughter and I always have such fun playing on it.Her favorite place in all of Portland used to be underneath the giant tree in the field, too. There are a bunch of awesome trees there, but this one is the massive one in the middle. Its a really great place to have a picnic in the shade on a hot Summer day. And its really fun and calming to feel like youre inside a tree tent. Also, theres a pretty fantastic view of the city if you walk to the far side of the park.All in all, its one of my favorite places to bring my daughters and I recommend visiting it at least once. Before developers turn it into a parking lot or worse one of these days.

Nice park. Recently went to a friends wedding party there. The covered area is nice with picnic tables. The water feature wasnt active witch was a bummer. The mature chestnut and oak trees are beautiful!!

Second or third favorite park in Portland and possibly the one with the best views (Mt Tabor?). Nice park for dogs and they have a good off-leash area. Nice old stone pavilion and maybe the best tree in any park in Portland...I think its an alder. They used to do the Organic Beer Fest here, but, sadly, it was discontinued around 2016.

A nice open park, not too crowded. The homeless population is pretty active here but its their park too. It does mean sometimes the bathroom is tied up but that cant really be avoided.

Im giving 4 out of 5 becuase I am a very harsh critic when it comes to parks. That being said Overlook park has something for everyone, be it the homeless junkie or the New To Portland couple Midwest transplants encompassed in a cloud of gentrification...Be it the runner wanting a unique soft surface for a volume oxygen day or the high school kid in desperate need of a grassy knoll that looks over the Willamette, so as to harness a Portland Sunset, and the magic of 420 in a spectacular moment created to envoke a first kiss.A kaiser.permanete building stands ugly and evil in all it represents as slingers of health care, its security quick to make sure you dont cross the threshold onto there part of the park, a part ripe with views of nw and the river.

Nice park, clean, and plenty of tables and green space. My only complaint was, it would be nice if the brush was cleared so you could have a view of the river.

Was a small park but had a nice view. Mostly people playing with their dogs or running. But, we had a nice view of the sunset and city.

Nice park with a baseball field, small playground, and the occasional festival or gathering. There’s a large, heavily built structure with bathrooms that covers a few picnic tables and a number of uncovered tables, plus some great views. Parking is usually taken up by folks going to KP Interstate. It’s not uncommon for folks to pitch tents/make shelters in the bathrooms and covered spaces, but it’s usually pretty clear in the late spring and summer.

Think me and my boyfriend met Jesus, our boomerang broke, and our kite barely flew, amazing day. Marcus, if youre out there, well meet again bud. Peace and love

I just moved out here and so far this has been great, friendly people, friendly dogs, nice expanse of grass, outdoor play structure, a couple of baseball fields and right next to a max stop!

Good park for running and kick ball also cant forget that great view of the city.Parking might be tight sometimes

A nice park to find respite and take the dogs walking.

Serene and a great view of the city. Especially pretty at night.

It is a good place to stop and relax for a while. Very peaceful and pet friendly.

Great little park. Good (albeit distant) vista of the river. Nice little playground and picnic area with facilities. Big fields for dogs and kick ball. Catches the sunset in a truly extraordinary way. Worth an evening wander.

This is one of my favorite parks in Portland Oregon the views are exceptional and the park is always clean. The trees are magnificent and towering

Overlook park has a great northern view of downtown Portland. It looks out over the Fremont bridge and beyond to Portland. Great place to visit at night. It also has a lot of free space and facilities.

Beautiful park to look at the city

Graffiti on the tables. Not really a great view. You can see a few bridges but mostly storage containers and industrial trains. The soccer fields aren’t bad though.

Nice overlook of the city, especially at night.

Great off leash dog area. It’s unfenced so make sure your dog has good recall.

Still open and able to practice social distancing while getting out and able to commune with people

Its nice at night to look over Portland

I wanted to see what the view was like, as id heard of the park but in 9 years have never been to it. Its a small park (Im used to pdx parks being more like wooded forests lol) and it views both the city bridges and train yard. Nothing remarkable, but okay. It has picnic benches and restrooms.

Great spot top sit n watch the trains. Also has something for everyone in my family. Playground. Basketball court. Huge field to play ball. Water play area. Picnic benches with a gazebo. Off leash area for dogs. Only thing I would do is put a fence in for my furry friend... She likes To explore and being so close to the busy road I wouldnt take her off the leash..

I was at Kaiser picking up prescriptions and had my dog Buddy with me. After getting my meds, we decided to stop and watch the sunset over Portlands west hills. It was amazing!

What a great place to run and play!

Beautiful scenic place to explore the city from the sidelines with my new binoculars.

Very nice and clean family-oriented park with wonderful views of the railroad yard River and downtown lights

I ADORE this park honestly! The area the view the GORGEOUS trees!!?!??!?! Can I get a HEEYAW?!

Really nice place for a relaxed walk with your dog with good views of the west side of the city.

Nice park. Great if you have a dog that enjoys running around. Clean too.

Super relaxing place hangout, pretty views, nice little trail for walking around the park. Been coming to this park for years.

Beautiful park. We shot a short film there, great view. A fairly big park. Great for everyone.

Decent sized park with nice view of the city.

Nice place to take the family

Beautiful park, lots of roo. To walk or run. Small trails

Movies in the park. Not crowded tonight, free family fun for all ages. Great date night as well

Best Park Ever. Dog friendly.

Very family friendly, large open spaces.

Good store great staff.

I gave this rating only because they close the bathrooms in the winter. God forbide u need to use the facilities & have a little one you r both screwed. We had to leave last time cause I needed to use the bathroom & that doesnt sit too well w/ a 2.5 year old!

Fun park! Great views, super fun old school/new school playground and the shelter is very nice. Lots of space for picnics and a huge field for games. Bathrooms are kinda gross but thats expected.

Nice park.

This park is great for beautiful views of the North End of Portland.This park is not great when you wind up there because you got on the wrong Mac train and dont notice until your at The Overlook Park stop.

Love it. My friends live in that area. I love the nature and big trees

Overlook Park is blossomy and green. The views of the Willamette River and downtown Portland are spacious.

Really nice park except for the homeless camp a few feet away lol

The sky flashed green and I was only bit twice! :^)

Large park with good walking path.

We, a small group of people who are elderly and disabled, and thus have special needs. All needs were accoodated, with multiple options to choose from, we had a lovely ol fashioned fried chicken picnic with games, safe paved walk, accessible bathroom etc. Reminiscent of the good times of our childhoods 50+ years ago, great day.

Its a park. Parks are good.

They lock the public bathrooms seasonally which is an inconvenience and the views are nice in some areas. You can find different kinds of pets there with their owners and the play area is kept clean.

Beautiful park in the City of Portland.Youll get a great view of downtown and Forrest park thats across the Willmette river.

Good vibes

Beautiful place with a wonderful viewpoint. Dog friendly place. Many homeless people, but it is not a park problem, but a society and community.

I came here for a work event and was pleased by the view Portland. Fun little stop / park if you find yourself in the area.

Beautiful until the Kaiser security guard told us to leave

The views of the trains are awesome and in the fall the leaves are beautiful

What a great place too spend an afternoon.I enjoyed this park it has beautiful trees and a large grassy area.The park was fairly emlty when I was there around 3pm.I would recommend visiting the park if you need some exercise after dinner or a place to bring the family.

One of my favourites, there is an amazin view of Freemont, big area, all kinds of sportsfields

Simply gorgeous

There is a really nice play area.

Best train yard view+ ! *Dont leave without looking up into the epic tree in the middle of park #BEAUTIFUL

Right off the yellow Max line is a beautiful little park. There is a playground for your children and a baseball/softball field

Park is as mice as always.

Nice views, nice park, and nice views. A little to busy for me. Never know how close or far away Ill be parking.

Very cool park,great view and the trees are unique cool park...

Good view of Portland! Cute grassy area to let my dog run free!

As of today this place is open same-day appointments only

It was peaceful.

Just good and simple for having a bit of fun !!!Small place thou

Biscuits and gravy were $14 and where the worst I have ever had. Wife said her food was ok.

Great view from only one spot. Its a quiet park with lots of grass.

It a nice & clean park. Has a bathroom

Really fun Ultimate Frisbee game at noon on Mondays and Wednesdays. All levels welcome.

Beautiful park!

I let my son go at this park so I will always feel a connection to it.

Not quite the view I had hoped for and there were some sketchy looking people around.

Used to come here when I was a kid, w Gentrification it now looks like San Francisco. If your a minority expect to be noticed!

Beautiful, open, for all ages. During the week around noon you can usually watch a game of ultimate Frisbee. Dogs are allowed leash free. Play structure for kids, swings, teeter totter, baseball diamonds. Con: many homeless that can be very distracting ( yelling, fighting, and inappropriate behavior for a park)

A bigger basketball court would be awesome or even just another basketball hoop.

What an awesome view of Oregon from this perspective Point. Really nice. I recommend it.

Its a park with kids playground, a small communal covered house, water fountains, baseball field, and plenty of space to run around for dogs and humans.

Great park. Clean facilities. Plenty for kids to enjoy.

One of Portlands best parks for a view. Public restrooms, safe location. Watch fireworks from here.

One of the sadest parks in Portland with alot of potential. Nice kids area but plenty of trash from the homeless and about 6 people just sleeping . Views limited here by all the trees cant even see the beautiful view. Get it together pdx

Great place to enjoy the trees!

Would be a great view and nice place if they trimmed trees, picked up garbage and my son and I werent afraid of being mugged and molested while being first time travelers on the Maxi going to OMSI from delta park!! Portland has a homeless, drug use, epidemic and they need to do something drastic about it! Its pitiful and heart breaking! These people needs serious help!!

Amazing park to do and see things like slack lining to kickball.

Well kinda boring not a hole lotta action I didnt see any basketball courts an there wasnt a lot of people visiting the park!! It was peaceful though very relaxing!!

Great family oriented as well as doggy loving park!!!!

Went here for a nice of Portland but you dont get a really nice few. Beside that it seems to be a nice park (playground, restrooms, shelter, baseball).

Peaceful today August 27th was a beautiful day 4 Overlook Park

Irresponsible pet owners who dont clean up their animals feces makes the playground unusable.

Cool place to overlook the Union Pacific railyards

Pretty nice place. Train yard isnt aesthetically appealing otherwise it would be a 5 star. The view of the interstate bridge is nice
