Jackson Bottom Wetlands Preserve

Reviewed By Momrat3 - Hillsboro, United States

Even on a cool, misty December day, it is refreshing to take a walk at Jackson Bottom. There will always be things to see, and you will feel that you are miles away from any city. The Visitor Center is exceptional and educational, too. What a gift we have here in Hillsboro!

There is no way to describe this place in a way that would make it sound as truly amazing as it is. The place is room after room of wonder and your imagination can not help but go into overdrive. I highly recommend this for all ages.

This is one of the best parks you can find in the Portland area. I walk my dog in this park. The fun thing about this park is that it has some many different areas: 1) Tennis courts 2) Playground 3) Walking/running paths 4) Small pond/lake 5) Picnic areas 6) Lawns / green areas 7) Walk through the forest 8) Walk along a river 9) In the spring & summer they have a small stream water feature that runs through the part. I trained my dog to jump over it. 10) Buildings for meetings & receptions

Reviewed By lovebasketball123 - Spokane, United States

This park is SO nice! There are 3 separate areas. A "winter" or "rainy season" gravel area, a small dog section, and then a large area for all dogs. We frequent this park and always have great experiences. Theres enough room for the owners to walk laps and get exercise as well. Our favorite dog park in the area.

At baseball games and football games, we usually don't have much of a problem getting parking. There is plenty of spaces. Seating is comfortable and concessions are nice. Great place on a nicer day in Oregon, unless you are a foul weather sports fan, then knock yourself out.

Roloff Farms

Reviewed By Hillontheluse

This was our first year going to Roloff farms , and I have to say that even with all the restrictions because of Covid we still had a great time . Everything was well organized , We, as in my mother n law , my three kids (ages 4 and twins 2 ) and myself enkpyed every minute of it . Every one was so nice , we had the pleasure of getting to meet some of the Roloffs and they were all so pleasant and definitely made our trip even more special. In the gift shop we were able to acquire a beautifully written book for the kiddos , written by Matt Roloff , my daughter especially loved it , as she deals with a condition called Selective mutism , she told me she wanted to be as brave as Lucy , we have already read the book a dozen times, and we to the farm on Sunday .
