Easy, scenic getaway
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 open seasonally 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.

Thinking ahead
We’re committed to keeping our parks safe, clean, sustainable and welcoming – but we need your help.
Before you go
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!)
During your visit
Stop campfires from becoming wildfires! Keep campfires small, make sure your tent and anything that can burn is a safe distance from your fire, keep water nearby and never leave a fire unattended.
Keep it clear: Park only in designated areas. Do not double-park or block entrances.
Leave no trace: Help us protect these natural areas by staying on-trail, packing out your trash, and admiring wildlife from a distance.
