Situated on the Willamette River, the park is the site of significant Native American activity over 10,000 years ago, as well as the center of Lake Oswego's industrial iron history. The park is 26 acres and contains athletic fields, tennis courts, children's playground, picnic areas, riverfront access, walking trails, and a large natural area.

One of the best views of the Willamette River can be found near the furnace in the lower park.
