Vista Brook Park, Portland OR

We live close and regularly go to VB park. It's great how it's along the Fanno Creek trail, so we jog/cycle there. Love the pond and native plants, frogs, birds, and care taken by the city to remove invasive plants. Decent play structures and nice little sandbox.

Park has a little bit of everything. Tennis courts, outdoor workout machines. Even a duck pond. All in a pretty small area.

Amazing neighbor hood park great trails and adorable play ground gif 1-6 years
Clean / tennis court and a broad walk for lake view

A great tucked away park for everyone! There's a basketball court, tennis courts, a playground, exercise circuit and look out onto a duck pond.

Wonderful walk off garden home by the community center, then a little nugget of a park with outdoor workout equipment that my daughter and I laughed at ourselves everytimewe used them! Thanks for the workout;) and laughs

Wonderful multiuse park! One Porta potty, drinking fountain with 3 levels (one for dogs!), a couple picnic tables, a number of benches and things to sit on, shaded playground, little kids playground area does get full sun later in the day, paved trails, 2 tennis courts, large open grassy area in full sun, 3 half court basket ball courts, railed deck overlooking pond/mud depending on rainfall, and exercise machines including one exclusively for the wheelchair bound. Very small parking lot. Directly off of the Fannow Creek Trail. Our favorite local park, hands down!

Lots of play opportunities for small to medium kids in two compact playgrounds. Built in benches and tables for their parents, but not necessarily shaded. Tennis courts, basketball, and a surprising amount of adult exercise equipment. The only things lacking are restroom facilities (the single porta potty lacked TP and hand sanitizer on our late week visit) and parking. I'm guessing the immediate neighbors get annoyed at all the visitors taking up their street parking in season!

Super park - everything you need (play structure, tennis courts, walking loop, fitness equipment - Wowie!

What a great little park! It has tennis, basketball and workout stations! (And a playground) (and a nice little pond)

This park actually has weight training equipment that uses your own body weight. I wish more parks had options like this. So cool! Tennis courts, bathrooms very nice little park right by fanno creek trail.

Neat little park with trails and workout equipment. Plenty of space for kids to run around. Well maintained.

This park consists of Tennis Courts (I am currently unsure if these are private and related to the nearby Portland Country Club, a workout circuit and surrounding paths, fun rocks under large Redwoods to picnic near and two playgrounds.

On one side you have a train play structure suitable for the 1 to 6 year old crowd, a teeter_totter (seesaw) and sitting spinners.

The other side (right next door so you can watch children both big and small play safely while enjoying your morning coffee) involves slides, a standing spinner, a globe type spinner for multiple children, monkey bars and a swing set.

The park is very clean, plenty of trash cans for rubbish placement and parking is right in front of the playgrounds (please be advised it fills fast due to the tennis crowd but some parking can be found in the neighborhood.please be polite and respectful of property owners and do not block their mailboxes or driveways)

There is also ample greenspace formsoccer, running, jumping and everything else to help your children play and get some excercise.

It should be noted that this park is popular (especially the tennis courts) so come before the late morning and before the post lunch rush (1pm things seemed to calm down a bit)

Post Covid: Normally you will.also have access to a Porta toilet, drinking fountains as well as a sand box.here's to Summer 2021.

Stay well, be safe and Happy Holidays.

I just now read all the reviews of this park and I can’t tell you how much it warms my heart. You see, this place, this park, this wetlands was my family’s home for almost 30 years. My family bought and built our home on the 10 acres that surround the wetlands and that the entire park now rests on. It is sacred space. I can still remember going to bed at night as a child listening to the bullfrogs, red winged blackbirds and roosting mallards coming in to land. In winter we would skate on the pond when it froze. All year we rode our horses around the property and their was a full jump course where the tennis courts now sit. Many of the fir trees now grown were once our Christmas trees in our living room. Fanno creek was heaven for kids to play, get dirty and find crawdads. The trails extending behind the Portland golf course and behind the park were once a fully functioning train track. Some of the big ties still exist I imagine. Although our house is no longer there (the city used it for burn practice when they purchased it) my memories of this warm comforting place remain. A piece of it will always exist in me and live in my heart. I am so very grateful to see it carry on as a place for children to laugh and play, free to be kids, building their own forever memories. Thank you for loving it.

It’s a nice park! Very friendly atmosphere, not too crowded. People go to play, families with young children are able to play on the playground and run. There are many benches, a big tennis court and definitely some nice peaceful walking trails! Highly recommend. There is a pond scenery that you can look at for peace hidden behind the park that you can walk to!

Such a fun park, the exercise equipment is a nice touch, but be careful during covid times
