Glenn Otto Community Park

Together, Glenn Otto Community Park and Lewis and Clark State Recreation Site present the best open beaches and swimming opportunities on the Sandy River.  When the high heat of mid-summer arrives, this half-mile long riverbank park, named for Troutdale's former mayor, becomes one of the Portland area's most popular weekend day-trips.

Beyond the refreshing draw of the Sandy River, the park also has a more manicured section closer to the parking lot that includes a meeting hall, a caretaker's home, irrigated lawn, a picnic shelter, a barbeque pavilion, a basketball half-court and a playground.
