I've been to this park twice, and both have been great. Best park in Oregon, by far. It's VERY affordable ($14.95 for an unlimited ride bracelet AND one roller skating session) Free admission and free...

This place really is a dump but Im still glad it's there. It really reminds me of that "KISS Meets The Phantom Of The Park" T.V movie from 1978. Its too bad that they took out the Haunted Mine because...

Oaks Amusement Park is a great place for the younger kids, has a lot of rides but nothing too extreme. First went here for my dad's company picnic, seems to be a popular place for that.

My company picnic was help at Oaks Park and it was a great location for it. They had a tent set up for us. The food was good. Parking was convenient. They have rides that appeal to all ages.

This is a great place for a company picnic. There are decent rides, the skating rink and a nice area for the picnic (they pitch a tent and do a good job with set-up).

It has all the rides I remember from carnivals growing up. The kids love it, and always have so much fun. They have at least a few rides that adults can enjoy too. Plus it's cheap!
