Serene beauty close to the city
This day-use park is our closest to Portland and Salem and is great for disc golf and picnicking.
Timber Park is along Estacada Lake above River Mill Dam. There’s shoreline for fishing and paddling, as well as ball fields for organizing sporting events. Two picnic shelters, which can accommodate 100 people, may be reserved for gatherings. There is also a small nature play area for all ages.

If you want to reserve a picnic shelter or part of the park for a private group, there is a small day-use fee. Phone reservations and email requests for the upcoming season will be accepted beginning the first business day in March at 8 a.m. Please make a reservation using the Day Use Area Permit Application. Contact Timber Park at 503-630-5120.

We’re committed to keeping our parks safe, clean, sustainable and welcoming – but we need your help.
Make a plan: Check for road closures on your route and research your destination for the possibility of fire bans, reservoir-swimming restrictions or other conditions that may affect your visit.
…and a plan B: Make a backup plan in case of crowds. If the parking lot is full when you arrive, come back another day. (Tip: try visiting on weekdays or at off-peak times to beat the crowd!)
Keep it clear: Park only in designated areas. Do not double-park or block entrances.
Stop the spread: Wear a mask around people outside of your own party and practice social distancing.
Leave no trace: Help us protect these natural areas by staying on-trail, packing out your trash, and admiring wildlife from a distance.
