Lots of fun! Its free! I went on an impromptu outing here with my husband, and we enjoyed learning about Vanport and seeing the animals of the watershed (yes, thats right! Theres terrariums with frogs and a lovely window to lots of birds). Its a hidden gem; youre likely to be the only visitor. That said, this is most certainly intended for field trips. Adjust your expectations accordingly, but give it a shot.

There are free family activities every 2nd Saturday of the month that my kids like, plus an annual Sturgeon festival that is really cool (often includes live bird and reptile shows). Great recurring events to keep on the family activities calendar.

Great place to spend a rainy day with the kids. Interesting exhibits and interactive learning tools plus Sturgeon and amphibians all at no cost. Summer programs are just the kind of thing ecology minded parents love.

Beautiful setting and interesting (educational) decor. We appreciate the access given to local schools . We especially enjoy watching the local schools jazz bands perform in the upstairs meeting space.

With a few aquariums (fish and reptiles) as well as some interesting science exhibits, the water resource center is worth a 30 minute visit.

Native amphibians living in tiny stuffy plastic tanks isnt necessary for teaching us about the ecosystem.
