Reviews of Overlook Park (Park)

Kenneth Schopp

Graffiti on the tables. Not really a great view. You can see a few bridges but mostly storage containers and industrial trains. The soccer fields aren’t bad though.

Brennan Degen

Overlook park has a great northern view of downtown Portland. It looks out over the Fremont bridge and beyond to Portland. Great place to visit at night. It also has a lot of free space and facilities.

What a great place too spend an afternoon.I enjoyed this park it has beautiful trees and a large grassy area.The park was fairly emlty when I was there around 3pm.I would recommend visiting the park if you need some exercise after dinner or a place to bring the family.

Leah Herrera

Great park but also depends who else is there.

Would be great if it wasn't so dirty.

Justin Dean

Beautiful north Portland park overlooking the rail yard. Nice view of downtown, forest park, and the mighty Fremont bridge. Baseball diamond, swing set, jungle gym, covered picnic area and open air picnic tables as well. Max yellow line stops right in front of the park making it a convenient destination. The best part is the enormous tree in the middle. Not sure what kind of tree but it so so cool!

Dope, my homie who's leaving today took me here and we watched the trains pass and swung on swings. Clean and relaxing.

Elena Escobedo

Super dirty park. So many cigarettes.

Briana Williams

Great park to take a break and just relax

Bill Westervelt

We host an annual bbq here. Nice covered area that needs reservation s.

omari priestley

One of the sadest parks in Portland with alot of potential. Nice kids area but plenty of trash from the homeless and about 6 people just sleeping . Views limited here by all the trees cant even see the beautiful view. Get it together pdx

Killian Shields

Beautiful view of downtown across the river

Jesse Lopez

Nice park for a baseball game but parking is very limited

John Sellers

An open little park that's great for letting your dog run or catching a view of the train depot and the 405 bridge. There are some play structures for kids but they are pretty minimal. We mostly visit to see the trains.

Justin Feldman

Pleasant hilly park. Soccer fields, too.

Sirene Raven

Love this park.

Andrew ONeil

Great family park!

Waqas Mustafeez

Please overlook this park. There is dog poop everywhere from the ground to the "keep pets on leash" sign. Maybe that's why no one can read that thing.

Rainbeaux

One of Portland's best parks for a view. Public restrooms, safe location. Watch fireworks from here.

Leszek Erazmus

Really nice place for a relaxed walk with your dog with good views of the west side of the city.

T Major

Fun park! Great views, super fun old school/new school playground and the shelter is very nice. Lots of space for picnics and a huge field for games. Bathrooms are kinda gross but thats expected.

Cami Ferguson

Good view of Portland! Cute grassy area to let my dog run free!

Aruni de Silva

This is where Kaiser Permanente Interstate offices are located. It is very conveniently accessed by Max rail. Take yellow line /Expo center and get off at stop Overlook Park. There is an ER, Urgent care and various other departments and lab services. Pharmacy is very efficient and fast and friendly service. Use pharmacy entrance between East and West buildings to get direct access to the pharmacy. Vitamins and over the counter meds are few dollars cheaper than store prices. Urgent care here is always crowded and I have not had good experience. ER is way better and more effective. Recommended to call before as many services are on the East building and those with walking difficulties could be challenged. Cafeteria (on the Ground floor) serves quite nice soups and breakfast and lunch items. Reasonably priced and quite tasty food. Nice thing about this cafe is Both healthy and not so healthy food (Like Bbq Ribs) is available. Their baked squash is very good. They close after lunch by 3 or so. (Not sure of exact time)

Nolan Callender

Nice park with a large playground.

Warren Pulling

A bigger basketball court would be awesome or even just another basketball hoop.

Matt Wing

Nice park, the homeless probably won't hassle you.

DeAnna Welch

Not quite the view I had hoped for and there were some sketchy looking people around.

nickpdx

This park is definitely a place you should visit while coming to Portland. From the pleasant garden & fountain, to the playground, everything here feels great out in the open doors.

Trump Supporter Ann

I wanted to see what the view was like, as id heard of the park but in 9 years have never been to it. It's a small park (I'm used to pdx parks being more like wooded forests lol) and it views both the city bridges and train yard. Nothing remarkable, but okay. It has picnic benches and restrooms.

Ian Laursen

Nice place and has bathrooms

Elias Enyart

A heroin addict threataned to piss on me and I still had a blast

It's a park with kids playground, a small communal covered house, water fountains, baseball field, and plenty of space to run around for dogs and humans.

Thomas Greer

Big enough space to run the dog around. They have an infield and the scenery is okay

Gramma Burnett

It's open area and special specific areas, like for children, large group picnic covered area, etc

Kimba Arivaderci

Worked the Blues Fest and the park is comfortable as always. The folk who attended the festival was a mixed crowd most days they were nice and traditional Portland well mannered. Saturday was the hottest and weirdest.

Paul Davis

Large park, hilly terrain, large very over industry and train yard. Swings, slide, climbing etc for a normal playground. Parking can be tricky.

Katie Urmann

Love parks

Brian Inskeep

I used to run across Overlook Park after my piano lesson with Melissa Thornburg at the Overlook house. Miss this lady.

Samantha Rose

Its below where I work, I have never been there, but you keep thinking I have been.

BRENT SWORDS

Another of Portland's great parks. Plenty of picnic tables, great fields, nice views, big stone shelter, playground with swings. I like it a lot.

Raymond Lindgren

Would be a great view and nice place if they trimmed trees, picked up garbage and my son and I weren't afraid of being mugged and molested while being first time travelers on the Maxi going to OMSI from delta park!! Portland has a homeless, drug use, epidemic and they need to do something drastic about it! It's pitiful and heart breaking! These people needs serious help!!

Bence Pálos

One of my favourites, there is an amazin view of Freemont, big area, all kinds of sportsfields

Bart Simpson

Jonathan Loppnow

Great place

James Thornton

A good view of down town

Luciano De Lopes

Very green, clean lawn, very poor playground.

Peter Schneider

I really enjoyed accompanying my sweetheart to this park and a really nice sunny afternoon. The park was just gorgeous and everyone else present were having a really good day. We really enjoyed our time spent at this park. In fact, this park would be a five star winner had not the unisex bathroom been such a dump. It was absolutely filthy, and I mean really filthy. There was a used pair of underpants and pajama pants littered on the ground, apparently abandoned. To top it off, there is no soap or towels/blow dryer for the sink. Honestly, if you're at this park, please hold it. Because using this bathroom will just ruin your good time.

Brent Hasty

Good playground

Kenneth Gillispie

Barney Burnett

We, a small group of people who are elderly and disabled, and thus have special needs. All needs were accoodated, with multiple options to choose from, we had a lovely ol fashioned fried chicken picnic with games, safe paved walk, accessible bathroom etc. Reminiscent of the good times of our childhoods 50+ years ago, great day.

Zach Powers

Our office's go to park for events. Close to downtown, great view, accessible by Max, covered area in case of rain, and playground and sports fields for the kids. Only thing missing is a splash pad.

Nice open fields with room to throw a blanket down. Played frisbee here during the summer. Good views, some ball fields and a playground with public restrooms close by.

Thomas Bogert

Park smelled like fresh cut grass, dog poo, and gasoline. Bathrooms are like middle age prison bathrooms. Parking is limited.

Melinda Lepinski

Sat in the grass at the top of a hill in the shade of trees. The views were great and even though it was busy, we had a ton of room to spread out.

Would give 5 stars if there was more than street parking available. Good place for kids and large parties both.

Amber C

Beautiful, open, for all ages. During the week around noon you can usually watch a game of ultimate Frisbee. Dogs are allowed leash free. Play structure for kids, swings, teeter totter, baseball diamonds. Con: many homeless that can be very distracting ( yelling, fighting, and inappropriate behavior for a park)

Michel Carter

Beautiful place with a wonderful viewpoint. Dog friendly place. Many homeless people, but it is not a park problem, but a society and community.
