Small riverside park and public boat ramp on the Columbia/Nehalem area offering wide water vistas, mirror reflections, marsh edges and migrating waterfowl. Best at sunrise/sunset for warm side-light and reflections; spring/fall bring bird migration. Easy roadside parking, no fee; accessible ramp and trails. Expect wind off the river—calm mornings are best. Quiet small‑town setting good for intimate landscape and wildlife shots.
