Martin's Bar ...
Martin's Bar is located along the Columbia River just upstream of Burke Slough and Burke and Martin Island at approximately Columbia River Mile (RM) 81.5. The Lion's Day Use Park is located next to Martin's Bar. Presumably the "Martin" in "Martin's Bar" is the same Martin as the family in nearby Martin Bluff and Martin Island.
