The Cottage Grove Dam, completed in 1942, stores up to 33,000 acre-feet of water and provides valuable flood control as well as irrigation, recreation and improved navigation downstream. The area is also managed to provide habitat for a wide variety of wildlife species, including waterfowl, black-tail deer, upland game birds, songbirds, bald eagles, osprey and many other species. |

| Washburne State Wayside | | The wayside rests on the border between Lane and Benton Counties. This wayside makes a great picnic spot, especially if guests have decided to travel through the Willamette Valley along Hwy 99W instead of the interstate. This is a well-shaded park thanks to the Douglas fir trees. Wildlife watching and bird viewing are very entertaining. A walking trail stretches deep into the forest. It is an easy trail for all ages to hike. Guests are welcome to travel back into the woods and set up a camp site. |
