The Martin Luther King Jr. Park features natural meadow areas with upland prairie and riparian habitats. It is known for being home to Walnut Barn, a converted barn that is available to rent for parties and events.

The park includes a badminton turf area, and 2 horseshoe pits. There is a paved multi-modal path to Ponderosa Ave. and a one-mile dirt and gravel trail that includes two small bridges spanning Lamprey Creek and ascends the hill to a scenic view. There are good wildflower displays here in spring and summer. The park also has a designated "dogs off-leash" area.

Planning is underway for the Capital Improvement Project at this location - to learn more, see renderings and support the MLK Park Project go to mlkparkcorvallis.org
