So beautiful at William Clark park and cottonwood beach. Lots of walkers, bicyclists and families with young children. The children playing on the beach in the sand, getting dirty, wet oh how much fun is that. Mom is right there watching over her flock, 3 sm children having a fun afternoon. Walked more than a mile, first time since my multiple fractured big toe, no to surgery...it was great, to walk among mother natures beauty, again....

Gorgeous beach. In the summer, it gets pretty packed on hot days, especially weekends. Unfortunately a lot of wakes from jet skis make the water stinky and rough for stand up paddle boarding. Lots of loud country music in certain areas of the beach, not everybody’s favorite. Hardly anyone around in cooler days and has great views of Mt Hood if you get out in the water. Pretty clean thankfully.

I loved walking this beach! It is the closest thing to a beach experience without driving far. There were only a handful of people here at the Columbia since it is October and a little chilly & windy. The water is too cold to swim, but scenery is gorgeous. It is also a close walking distance from the lake; about 1.5 miles away once you get past all the industrial stuff.

We have been here several times now & its such a great place for the kids. Parking can get a bit tricky, if the parking areas are full you might have to walk a bit (approx a couple blocks worth) to get there but its better than no parking at all..esp on a hot day!! Really nice sandy beach & shallow waters & you can see the sun set, too if you want. Really beautiful!

I really enjoy the walk I’ve done through here, and the beach is nice, but the mosquitoes are REALLY bad. I couldn’t be down on the sand without feeling miserable and swatting at myself constantly. The park itself is clean enough (sometimes the trash bins are overflowed) and is for the most part pretty quiet.

This is my new secret hiding spot. So nice and relaxing to watch the small waves and just chill by the sand. There's barely anyone there during the week, so if you're looking for somewhere peaceful to go to for a breather this is the spot. And they allow dogs too! Very clean.
