About This Access Site
Located in Gladstone off River Road, Meldrum Bar Park offers a well-maintained boat ramp and floating dock for access to the Willamette River. The facility includes potable water and portable restrooms, making it a convenient launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboaters. The park's river access extends upstream to Dahl Beach Park and the confluence of the Clackamas River, providing good paddling opportunities along this section of the Willamette.
This is a popular regional access point that serves both local paddlers and boaters from the greater Portland area. The park itself features multiple recreational amenities beyond the water access, making it suitable for families or those looking to combine boating with other activities. When planning your visit, note that the park may be busy during organized sports seasons in summer and fall.
