Umpqua State Scenic Corridor


This small park contains a couple of picnic tables, a vault-style restroom and a short boat ramp leading into the Umpqua River. There's a small amount of room for trailer parking, but the parking lot is better suited to passenger vehicles.

Park History:

Lands were acquired between 1946 and 1982 by purchase and by gifts from Douglas County and Ian McLeod. Save the Myrtle Woods, Inc. contributed to the purchase of several tracts. Mostly located between the highway and the Umpqua River, they were acquired to preserve the fine stands of myrtle trees, maples and other native species.
