Twin Bridges Park is a hidden two-acre destination on the bank of the Siletz River, located just 3 miles from the small community of Logsden and 18 miles from Newport.

Its name comes from the pairing of the new Sams Creek Road bridge with the remnants of the old bridge. Two massive pillars stand alongside the new structure, and smaller relics can still be spotted nearby.

Visitors enjoy picnicking, nature viewing, fishing, swimming, scuba diving, boating, tubing, and other water activities. From the parking lot, you can launch from the boat ramp or walk across the bridge to find a secluded spot. Trails on both sides of the river lead to peaceful hideaways.

Parking is generous for such a small park. Twin Bridges is a free, day-use-only area with an accessible pit toilet and picnic tables.
