Beautiful Parks Near You For Earth Day

There is no better way to spend Earth Day than at a beautiful state park with your friends or family! But choosing one can be challenging when there are so many. Allow us to help! This weekend, why not discover Powell Butte Nature Park, just minutes from the Lodges at Lake Salish.

While Salish Ponds City Park is right in our own backyard, it is often nice to get out and explore a new park! Powell Butte Nature Park is one of the most expansive parks in the area, guaranteeing something for everyone. The sixty-one-acre parks feature over eight miles of trails, ranging in difficulty from easy to challenging. The trails are not just a great way to break a sweat, but also get great views of the park, as well as its plant and wildlife. The park also features a fantastic view, dubbed the “Summit of Endless Views,” so if you plan on hiking up, be sure to bring a camera!

Don’t wait any longer, make a plan to visit Powell Butte Nature Park today! The park is located at 16160 SE Powell Blvd, Portland, OR 97236, just a fifteen-minute drive from the Lodges at Lake Salish Apartments in Fairview, OR.

Labor Day Weekend is Upon Us!

Labor Day Weekend is just around the corner. This is the time for enjoying a much needed three day weekend, plus gathering together with family and friends for grilling and fun activities! We have a couple suggestions to add to your holiday weekend schedule.

If you’re the outdoors, nature lover type, you should check out the Blue Lake Regional Park! Just like its namesake, there is a beautiful lake where you can swim and boat, and there’s also fishing, an 18-hole disc golf course, hiking and biking trails, plus so, so much more! If you’d rather do something indoors and you’ve got a babysitter (or the kids are grown!), check out Ye Old Grog Distillery. They hand make all their own drinks, have tours and tastings, and even make ice cream for adults.

Overall, Fairview, Oregon has plenty to do for the weekend warriors and for those who want to relax. Have a safe and fun holiday weekend with those you love.
