State Recreation Site make for a romantic escape with mother nature that puts visitors in a tranquil bliss full of energetic activity. On the Sandy River you can swim and fish and on the grounds hike and picnic. There is also a short slipway if you want to enjoy the clear blue waters from your boat. We stopped at the park for an hour enroute to Mt Hood.

Lewis and Clark boasts one of the best, and most accessible swimming holes in the Portland metro area, particularly for those with little ones, or for people lacking in strong swimming skills. The current here is negligible, the water relatively shallow all-throughout, and there is plenty of sand and shade to go around. Plus, free parking (no day use fee), and it's literally right off the highway! The only downside to be aware of is that the railway bridge is heavily used: during our three hour visit, no less than four trains came barreling through, roaring and blowing their horns, which spooked our young son a little each time; he would cling to me until each passed which, due to their length, lasted several minutes. People sensitive to loud noises should take note and prepare accordingly.

This place was so easy to find and even though the parking lot seemed like there would be a lot of people, the people were rather spread out and it didn’t feel overly crowded. Love that life jackets are provided here! A fun place to wade and float in a tube or inflatable boat
