I enjoy Stub Stewart. Nice cabins, great view of the rolling hills turning into the Coast Range. Lots of mountain biking trails with awesome, funny names, and a forested 18-hole disc golf course to boot!
We did the walk in camping. They have a little wagon to borrow you can use to schlep in your gear which was so handy. The camp sites are small and close to each other, but perfect for a tent. Each campsite doesn’t have a fire ring which is disappointing but totally understandable with fire concerns. Instead there are 2 large community fire rings to use. It’s very lush and green and there are bathrooms (no sinks, no plumbing) and water spigots for use. There were tons of trails thru the trees and it also is right next to the Banks to Vernonia bike path which is gorgeous and an easy ride for families. The park rangers were very nice. Big dumpsters with a ton of recycling choices in the parking lot too. Only downer was the hoards of eager mosquitoes but that was most likely from the time of year we went and the tons of rain we’ve had. Also there is no lake, creek or stream nearby. We enjoyed ourselves and would go back.
Great park. A lot of trails and open areas for day use. Cabins are very nice and useful if you have kids. Very family oriented. Kids loved it.
The newest state park also had the newest and cleanest facilities. Generously sized 2 room cabins are well insulated and heated. Plenty of sleeping space. Excellent camp for access to trails, disc golf, and weather permitting stargazing. No fishing/swimming opportunities is the only reason I can't give 5 starts
A very pleasant place to get away from city. Just 25 minutes drive west of Hillsboro/Beaverton area. I enjoyed my stay here, walk outside of the car, lookout beautiful mountain hills and a good slope of green space near parking lot. I was there a few years ago at clear sky night to watch star in summer time. Very good spot to view night sky.
