Great stop off of hwy 38 with beautiful views of the Umpqua river. The park has clean restrooms, picnic tables and a boat launch. The hosts are friendly and helpful!

Such a 0retty place to visit. Rocks that have been carved by running water, decent fishing and lots of little critters to see around here. It's beautiful and I keep coming back. If it's a day trip, fishing, canoeing, or just site seeing, this is a place to stop and enjoy nature.

While on my way, I happened to stop at this park by chance and I am pleasantly surprised at how picturesque it is, wonderfully situated on the Umpqua River.

Beautiful little park. Right on the river. Clean and very tidy. Picnic tables and garbage cans with very clean big restrooms. Gorgeous views and lots of parking for viewing or fishing.

Too many Hornets at the picnic tables! We had to run for it and hide in our car. The view of the river was great, though. Kinda bummed about it. 🐝Restrooms: Clean restroom. Grateful for that!

I was driving home from the coast and saw this little area, which seemed like a perfect place to have my sandwich and enjoy a really nice spot on the river. If your adventurous you can climb over the rocks to the water easily and play with the dog, or go for a cooling swim. Many nice wineries to explore nearby. I will remember this sweet stopping spot.

My husband and I love this place, and always make a point to stop by when we are on the road. The restrooms are always clean and stocked, and the caretaker takes wonderful care of the area. It's the perfect place for a little peaceful break when you've been on the road and are tired.

This place is nice for a stop on the way to the coast. The benches are usually clean and the caretaker is super nice. Her dog is also a sweetheart. Great place for a picnic while having an amazing view of the Umpqua River. I can't wait to go back.

My husband and I stay in a rental house in Elkton Or, right above the RV park. My husband loves to fish and love to sit on the rocks and enjoy the sun and the river. We like it here so much we make a point to come every year now.

The park is great, but the restroom has not been fixed, so only one restroom and always people waiting. No soap in dispenser, so take your own sanitizer wipes.

This place is amazing! The landscape is perfect for hanging out and sunbathing, jumping in and cooling off and floating down the river. The flat rocks made it easy to set up our canopy and we made a whole day out of it. The rocks are great to jump off and there's little natural pools perfect for littler ones and the water is warm.

We had never stopped here before but what a beautiful spot along the river. There are rocks you can walk on out into the river, and wa la, you're practically standing in the middle of the Umpqua.

Absolutely gorgeous, well manicured, with professional looking flower beds, and spotlessly clean restrooms that are very ADA accessible. A beautiful view of the Umpqua River.

This is a first-class small city park with boat launch ramp picnic tables and excellent river access right out a couple blocks from the heart of town. Free! Nice clean restrooms.

Beautiful rest-stop on the way to the coast. Nice and clean bathrooms, but even if you don't have to go, stop for the beautiful views of the river (and maybe even a quick dip!)
