Gorgeous views! Perfect for golden hour landscape shots of Springfield or Eugene and the surrounding hills. Would be a good spot to drone from, in my opinion, too.

It was past the park time and we got locked in. Gate is supposed to automatically let you out but it didnt. Otherwise great views! Perfect for watching sunset and sunrise.

Cool overlook of Eugene/Springfield just a short drive up a steep paved road. The parking lot has about 6 spots. Way less popular than Skinner Butte. I didnt hear about it until a year passed by living in Eugene. View is 360 but obstructed on one side due to houses. Theres a bench in the perfect spot better than the overlook. Check it out!

It has decent views of Springfield, but blocked in most other directions. Its small but fairly quiet. Its a great place to watch fireworks on the 4th of July, but tons of people so get there early.

A Great view of the two cities. And very accessable if one were handicapped or just not feeling like a hike. They do however have hours and close a gate/chain near dusk so it is goos to be prepared for that as I was not

Lking out on Springfield from the Westside is a sight at night thats bright with lights ... Which might be alright at high heights. .

Kelly Butte Park is a great place for adults, couples, and sightseers. THERE IS NO PLAYGROUND. This place is not kid friendly as you will probably want them to stay in the car. 360° Views with beautiful sunrise and sunset viewing makes this a photographers dream. If you find this review helpful please LIKE it. Thank You!!

I wish the view from here was great! but the houses that ring the hill prevent you from really seeing much. There is a view deck pointing south but the cell tower really kills it for me?

Quiet, peaceful view of Springfield and Eugene. A gem I didnt know about before!However, it is only a view park, not much grass our play area- just keep that in mind if thats what youre looking for!

Review №23

Peaceful at night except when people come up there and sit in their cars with headlights on/idling. Inconsiderate.

Nice views of both the Eugene and Springfield cities both night and day.

No amenities, some pretty aggressive speed bumps, but All U Can See for free - spectacular view over Springfield, Eugene, and the Willamette River valley. We could see bands of rain squalls sweeping in from the west, as a kettle of hawks swooped by at nearly eye level, harassed by a murder of crows (Thanks Big One Up There - Ive wanted the chance to write a description like that for a time) a pretty impressively immersive moment.However, dont linger too long, the actual viewpoint is immediately in the directed radiation cone of a significant number of cellphone antennas which are about 40 feet up and maybe 100 feet away.If you believe that 1.2 & 5 gHz are potentially hazardous, move away from the viewpoint and birdwatch somewhere else.

Wasnt very impressed. There are Veiws of Springfield but thats all youre going to get. Its to bad the city couldnt get a hold of the butte and made it like Skinner butte in Eugene . The view includes lots of roof tops.
