About North Santiam State Recreation Area

No specific size, year, or count is available beyond what the facts strip already covers. The land sits along the North Santiam River, giving visitors access to the water itself rather than just a view of it. The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department administers the site as a recreation area, meaning its purpose is geared toward river access and outdoor use rather than protecting a historic structure or a distinct natural feature.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
