Enchanted Forest - Travel Oregon

This 20-acre outdoor theme park, nestled in a forested setting just off I-5 in Salem, is something of an Oregon icon. It has been family owned and operated since opening its doors in 1971. Today, there are kiddy rides, slides and storybook lane for the younger set, and a haunted house, Big Timber Log Ride (the biggest log ride in the Northwest) and a roller coaster for the slightly older bunch.

If you’re a kid, or kid at heart, you’ll love Enchanted Forest

OK I’ll admit it… I am a 59-year-old woman who still feels like a kid, so when I added this to my our itinerary while visiting Oregon, my husband was generous enough to indulge my fancy. It is such a cute little amusement park. I loved all the creative ways they brought the fairytales to life. We bought some tickets and toured the haunted house, which I’m not really a fan of haunted houses, but this one was perfect for me as it was not too scary. I took lots of photos and even ran into a grumpy dwarf….besides my husband.🙄. We were disappointed with their limited staff and hours but I guess that is something that can’t be helped right now. The gift shop was also very disappointing with very few items.

A step back in time

What a cute whimsical treat! Takes you back to your childhood of fairy tales. Definitely a must see! Love the personal feel of this park. You can definitely tell the love that was put into the creations here. Loved the Cinderella show....hilarious! Just moved to Oregon and this will be a on our list to see again.

Fun for all ages

Enchanted Forest has been a part of our family since we moved here 45 years ago. Some of my kids have worked here as teenagers, my grandchildren love coming to visit, knowing they will be treated to a day of Enchantment. Some of our favorite things? Definitely the log ride, the haunted house, the water show and our very favorite would be the live theater. So many good times equal happy memories. Thank you Roger Tofte. Keep up the good work.

Great experience just as I remember as a kid

This place is so great. I went many times as a kid but hadn't been back since the 90s. Decided to go with my girlfriend and we both had a really fun time. There were many things to see and do, and the vibe of the park was just very pleasant. The workers were friendly, park was clean and the attractions were well maintained. It was also much more extensive than I remember. That attractions are long and there's clearly a strong attention to detail throughout the park. There is a magical quirky element to it that is nostalgic and hard to find in other theme parks nowadays. Probably what Disneyland had in its early days that it wasn't able to retain as it expanded. The prices were also very fair.
