This OPRD park has a newly improved boat ramp as of the fall of 2012. Paddlers will also appreciate the enlarged eddy to launch into before hitting the current.

Whitely Landing is no longer FREE to park at it now has a $4 fee for all parked cars and there is no where on site to pay the fee and get permit

Correct, you should have a Lane County Parks permit to use this parking lot. The permits are $4 and can be picked up at the Bi-Mart or REI in Eugene, as well as through the Lane County Parks Office (541-682-2000). Though it has improved in recent years, this somewhat remote location is not ideal for leaving your vehicle for an extended period of time due to break-ins.
