    It's a mural on the side of the Emeral Art Gallery. Pop into the gallery for a picture with the life size Simpson family. Walk the half block down away from Main St and check out the other Simpsons murals. It's free and fun!

    We were there to do some practice photography with the new camera my daughter got. We enjoyed the trails and the historic farm vibe. The fall colors where nice. And most guests where curtious to others. We did notice that someone had gone through and broken the mushrooms that they could find which was disappointing since one of the things my daughter was practicing was macro photography and wanted fungus pictures.

    Over all the park offers a great deal for walkers and people that like living history, just be aware that after school starts the rest rooms appear to be closed.

    This museum is in downtown Springfield. It is free of charge. They had a special exhibit about the history of the Springfield Police. The regular exhibits featured exhibits on history, agriculture and the Simpsons of Springfield.

    Cute little gallery. 2D and 3D art by local artist. This was my first visit, but I was told the gallery changes their art every month. Several stunning pieces and the Simpson couch was a fun addition for a few pictures. Gallery is kid friendly.

    What a wonderful afternoon! We were greeted by your gracious staff and had one of the best red wine/charcuterie board combos I ever had. I was just traveling through, had heard from a local about this tasting room, was pleased to experience; it's filled with great wines, art and great service. I look forward to returning soon!

    Recently visited the Splash wave park with my 4 year old granddaughter and family. Very reasonable family rates and clean, indoor facility. It is the first 'wave' park I've visited. Zero entry on one end and 7ft on the other made this fun for all ages. The waves were pretty big on the deep end, not so much on the shallow end. Lift vests available. Inflatable rings. Plenty of lifeguards. Also had a slide, lap swim lanes, wading pool and a large hot tub (adults only).Concession stand and seating. Area for parties. Very nice facility. Changing rooms were pretty open but family dress area available.

    the paths to the east of the boat ramp parkinglot get flooded and very muddy nov-mar but if you are brave enough to cross a few bogs and knee high creeks you have the whole shore to yourself. great for off the leash dogs and bird watching. expect more homeless camps in warmer months the farther back in you go but the trails through meadow and woods to the far east river access are lovely and not super crowded farther back in.

    The Uketober Festival held their Saturday night headliner concert last weekend at this amazing venue. It was a perfect place for the intimacy of the ukulele and also the hall accommodated the larger ensembles as well. Kudos to the sound production crew! Lighting, sound, seating - all great. Highly recommend!

    This park is located close to an LTD bus line making it accessible to most all families. Lots of shade trees, benches and tables. Restrooms and playground equipment for family fun.

    Lots of grassy areas. BEWARE there are so many DUCKS or GEESE that sitting on the grass might be something to reconsider.

    I have always felt safe and welcomed at this park. Parking at the East end of the park.

    I take my own drinking water. There are faucets in the summer. A covered pavilion for shade is available. Not sure if those can be reserved and rented.

    We stopped here to get some local info and trip advice. The staff was knowledgable, helpful, and provided great assistance in ascertaining info we sought. Great displays and wonderful Oregon souvenirs.

    We went with our three teens and did The Cabin escape room. We had a blast! We made it through with seconds to spare. The pace was great and the rooms had lots of surprises and lots of novel puzzles to solve.

    It’s been deteriorating for a while, and it’s gotten worse over time. They removed the food court, and pretty much everything in the mall. Almost all of the stores in it have shut down, or are abandoned. The cinema was fine though. Overall, it was fine.

    Also, the main sign still has “Sears” on it. Even though it closed years ago.
