The park is along the Sandy River and Beaver Creek. Several drownings have occurred along the river.[2] A community organization has subsequently partnered with the city to provide lifeguard services.[3]
The park named was changed from Troutdale Community Park to Glenn Otto Park in 1995 in honor a former mayor of Troutdale, Glenn Otto.
