Trust me, you will never have a bad day visiting this beautiful park. Lots of spaces to walk, run and chill. I love the small beach/lake access view. The only minor is bathroom was not clean and had too many trashes nearby

Beautiful Park nestled by the Willamette River. The park has picnic tables, dirt trails, big grass area for dogs to play, and there is a boat ramp for river access.

Pretty nice park. Great place to bring your dogs. I went with friends that live in the area and took their dog Lydia. She was able to meet and interact with other dogs and so did we! There were so many adorable furry four legged...Read More

Great place to enjoy the sun! I went this morning from 8-10:30am, and pretty much had the whole area to myself. …

This is the ultimate secret spot for dogs that love water. There are sticks galore and not alot of little kids so big dogs can run and chase each other and shake and roll in the sand. This usn't a spot for a romantic picnic...Read More

Love this park, but it gets very busy on warm days. The off-leash area is huge and dogs have fun playing in the water. The trails are beautiful and maintained. Good place to have a family day, or take a walk. The restrooms were surprisingly...Read More

I had a fantastic Sunday afternoon here! The park was easily accessible from the nearby bike path, although there were not many places I saw to lock up my bike. There is a parking lot here but it was very full upon my arrival around...Read More

Family friendly, not too many benches and picnic tables available but can easily find a space to sit on the grass or along the dock. Can swim and jump off the dock. Water isn’t very clean though but still enjoy a swim. Many dogs around....Read More

This is a great spot to bring your 4 legged friends. Our dog had never been near a body of water (she's less than 2 years old) and she took to it in a minute here at the River. …

Great park! You can take your dog offleash along the river. My boys love it and swim like crazy. It can be crowded on weekend afternoons when the weather is warm but the people are friendly. A lot of people use the dock to launch...Read More

Great open area for people and respectful dogs, a local beach walk, but everyone aware and kind. A good place to meet happy people.

No playground, just an open field, beach access, docks, trails, snd next to an all-ages amusement park.They’re at the entrance of the park next in the parking lot.Thankfully (and hopefully) respectful dogs only. It is open area and not fenced in, obedient dogs work best here.Plenty of spots, an entire beach, and next to an amusement park as well.

Beautiful park on the Willamette River. Easy access by car. Great jumping off point for biking/running/walking Springwater Corridor along the East bank of the Willamette River. Easy connections to all Portland bridges and places N/S/E/W.

Sellwood riverfront park is the best place for a picnic or swim! The doc is a great place for diving, or jumping in. The grass is close enough to the water to have a picnic. And it’s super dog friendly!

This is one of the best dog friendly parks around! Always tons of off leash doggos running around, and swimming!The big grassy lawn is perfect for a picnic! But watch out as there is lots of dogs running around off leash.

Wonder grassy area next to the water. Plenty of bank access and beach space. Parking fills quickly so get there early. Great place for a picnic, float and pet friendly.

No playgroundKind of maintained restrooms. But they are there!Plenty of other dogs to run around and play with. Trash and doggy bags usually available but you should always bring your own!

Great access to the water. Sandy beaches, some rocky. Paddlesports, kids playing and wading, chilling - every time with good vibes. Love going here with the family

Decent. Old and not in the nicest shape, but fully functional and reasonably clean for park/beach/dog park use.Everybody brings dogs! I think it might be a dog park that is people-friendly 😉

One of our favorite places. Nice beach for the kids and dogs to play at. Shady in the morning, sunny in the afternoon. Often busy and always loads of dogs.
