Holman State Wayside, State park in Polk County, Oregon
The wooded area spans 10 acres at the base of Eola Hills, containing Douglas firs, Oregon white oaks, and bigleaf maple trees.
Thomas and Cora Holman allowed public access to their property's natural spring in 1922, leading to the state's acquisition of the land.
The natural spring played an essential role for early settlers who used the water source for livestock and drinking purposes.
While closed to vehicles since 2007, the state park remains open to pedestrians and cyclists who can explore the walking trails.
The park contains a natural spring that dates back to pioneer times and continues to flow through the forested hillside property.
