Great activity for a day trip to the coast. We had a great experience here watching how glassblowing is done and witnessing the various pieces created by the artisans. One of the artists even made us a custom piece right on the spot! A great activity do do on a rainy day.

About 20 min from Marquam Hideaway, this is a great place to explore. Natural playgrounds don’t come much bigger than Sauvie Island — at 24,000 acres, it's one of the largest river islands in the country and sits at the confluence of the Willamette and Columbia Rivers just 10 miles northwest of downtown Portland. And from one end to the other, families can find an entire day’s worth of adventures; it’s a hot spot for fruits and veggies, as well as a paradise for bird-watchers, beach-goers, bicyclists and kayakers.
