“Gorgeous theater really nice people, I do have one complaint the 70 year old kept walking up and down the aisle not shining her light at anybody except for my husband and myself she made it so I wasn't able to see for the rest of the evening which was very disappointing my husband had asked her several times to please stop shining her light in my eyes I'm disabled we are in the disabled section. she was a boomer and took it as like don't tell me what to do and just kept doing it very disappointed in that.. I did end up getting up and complaining about her and I didn't see her for the rest of the evening. But who does that? Ask lady please don't shine light in my eyes it I am disabled and I actually need eye surgery. Worker shines light and I five more times very frustrated with that she didn't stop until I had to go tattle on her.”

2250 SE Water Ave, Portland, OR 97214, United States

“This place is so cool and a great way to bring out your inner child! My partner and I took a weekend ride on the holiday express during night, so it was hard to see outside but the train itself was such a fun experience. Some of the volunteers were much more lively than others which was understandable but you do get a lot from the ride. They have you order the tickets in advance so it shouldn't get too crowded inside. I would definitely recommend it to get into the holiday spirit, would love to try it again next year during daylight.”

6704 SE 122nd Ave, Portland, OR 97236, United States

“Loved my visit with the family to the botanical gardens. I’ve been meaning to go here for a few years now and finally paid it a visit. I am glad I did, it is very beautiful. My son loved the elevated tree walk and looking at the view. Tons of amazing plants and trees. Highly recommend. Great place to get your steps in and enjoy a beautiful garden and learn about some PNW history.”

Avalon Theatre, 3451 SE Belmont St, Portland, OR 97214, United States

“The Escape Rooms were absolutely incredible. We have played over 50 rooms across the region, and these two were some of the best. Murder in London is one of the most impressively immersive and clever experiences we have done. Our game master was a blast, gave fantastic hints, and really cared. It didn't hurt that we got to kill time between games playing the best-priced arcade games in the area.”

2311 Powell Blvd, Gresham, OR 97080, United States

“Our family went to Mt Hood Lanes recently. The kids had so much bowling. We loved that the bumpers for the littles were automatic. We can’t wait to go back!”

11175 NW Pacific Coast Hwy, Seal Rock, OR 97376, United States

“This place was amazing! What a cute little shop with so much natural light to display the glass art pieces. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Our son absolutely loved watching the glass blowing demonstration!”

115 SW 2nd St, Corvallis, OR 97333, United States

“Theater itself is good, good actors and good performances. For those who are considering auditioning, some directors are not inclusive and already have clique groups they cast from without giving opportunities to people outside of those groups. If you're looking for an opportunity to hone new skills and be apart of plays, ask more information about the directors first. Harriet and Jack are very good directors who are actually inclusive and encouraged diversity without nepotism. Volunteering in tech and other capacities is very fun though! Staff are nice and helpful, non director volunteers are wonderful!”

66200-66292 McKenzie-Bend Hwy, Bend, OR 97701, United States

“Nice place to stop and watch the sunset right off the highway. Can see several mountains from this point. They are far away but the expansive view is nice.”

39128 Dexter Rd, Dexter, OR 97431, United States

“Cool bar with good food. Stopped in for lunch after playing disc golf at Dexter state park which is across the road. Lots of Animal House photos. They also have video poker.”

1875 Marine Dr, Astoria, OR 97103, United States

“I used to like coming here, but the popcorn was extremely stale. As cold as the theater. At $9. The GM looked me in the eyes and stated in front of the rest of the staff that he had popped it in the last half-hour. It’s a mystery why attendance is low. One clerk explained it’s probably due to poor writing. I do agree and do believe there are better writers & actors in customer service positions right now. I wonder if writers blame low box office on stale popcorn? Anyways, the movie I saw certainly felt more fresh than the popcorn.”

Portland, OR 97227, United States

“First time over, i took the rail tram from my hotel by the Convention Center to the downtown area. It looked cool then. From the restaurant, I decided to walk back to the hotel. At night. 1.1 miles. In the dark. Oh noes! All the streets from Carlitas to the crowne Plaza had sidewalks. Had pedestrian push buttons and controls to get right off way. No problems with any other pedestrians nor cars. Going over the bridge though was the highlight. Took my time. Checked out the city scene with all the lights. Pretty cool for sure.”

2669, 2600 Center St NE, Salem, OR 97301, United States

“Amazing experience in the museum. The staff are retired medical professionals in the mental health field but very knowledgeable about the history of the museum. Military, veteran and senior discount available. Well worth the trip and time. I highly recommend this location.”

Portland, OR 97209, United States

“So it's not the best breed to pick the walkover for the scenery because it's windy as heck like being on the top of the Empire State Building but it's beautiful scraper night walk did you get photos of the Portland sign especially if it's somebody from out of town.”

303 Willamette St, Eugene, OR 97401, United States

“Very worth your $5! It was interesting to learn about the families who lived there through the self guided tour book. The house is really lovely, however, it is a little tacked up with posters on the walls in some rooms advertising current …”

17112 SE Powell Blvd, Portland, OR 97236, United States

“Firstly, this place is smack dab in the middle of the ghetto… It’s centered in a rundown outdoor shopping mall surrounded by cheap apartments. Once you get inside, the place is HUGE. This could be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on your child. The jungle gym itself is massive and is at least eight panels deep by eight panels wide. Which means if you are on one side, you cannot see all the way through to the other side. AKA you cannot really watch your child from the outside. Therefore, if you have a little-little, you have to follow them INTO the jungle gym, just to keep an eye on them. For me, this was a huge downside. I came to this place hoping for a break from chasing a toddler and instead I got more of a workout than a normal day. Next, is the price of this place. It’s much more expensive than any of the other place that I’ve been to. I think that speaks to the fact that it’s really aimed towards older/bigger children. They do have a half price day & that was worth it for us. Finally, there is an arcade section that is not set up in an ideal manner. There is a violent, Jurassic Park, shoot em up game that is placed directly next to the jungle gym area. So, even though I was able to peel my small child away from the appeal of a screen in the arcade area, she found her way back to it once she was inside the play structure. They should really move this game away from everything else. Overall, if you have kids that you are not concerned with keeping an eye on, this place is great. But, if you have smaller children that you’d like to be able to see, be aware that you will be following them into the structure. In addition, they will be surrounded by lots of kids of varying ages. We went on a Wednesday afternoon and I would not want to see what this place looks like on a weekend.”
