Milwaukie is a quaint little city in Clackamas County, Oregon. With only a little over 20,000 people living in the city this is a great friendly place to visit. I’ve visited there briefly for a friend’s wedding and loved the area and the kindness of the people. I was even able to see George Strait’s son at the rodeo at the county fair. Fun memories! If your family is taking a trip to Milwaukie Oregon, check out these attractions!
- The Portland Aquarium – What person doesn’t like an aquarium? If they exist, I haven’t met them! The wonder of wildlife is always alluring to kids young and old.
- Milwaukie Museum – Take a stroll back into time and explore some history at the Milwaukie Museum.
- Milwaukie Farmer’s Market – Featuring over 75 vendors, Milwaukie Farmer’s Market offers a variety of items including fresh produce, baked goods, plants and handmade items. The market also provides live music and services including massage and face painting. Fun for the whole family!
- Tour Bob’s Red Mill – Our family uses a lot of Bob’s Red Mill products and I would love to tour their traditional stone-milling facility that makes organic and gluten-free products. You can end the tour with a nice trip to their store or restaurant to enjoy their delicious products.
- Foothills Park – Enjoy the beauty that this riverfront park has to offer! It spans 9 acres on the Willamette River. The park boasts of a large grass amphitheater, a picnic pavilion, walking trails, a pier lookout, and a boating dock. This sounds like a relaxing place to spend the day.
- Take a Drive – While, this isn’t native to Oregon, taking a drive with the windows down is always an enjoyable way to spend a lazy summer day!
