Woodland, Washington • On the Lewis River
Weddings, corporate retreats, and quiet riverside stays — on the banks of the Lewis River, with gardens we are still planting, a golf course next door, and salmon at your feet. Close enough to drive. Far enough to disappear.
One estate. Few weekends.
Whatever brings you here — a wedding, a team offsite, or a night on the water — the whole property is yours. We take few dates, on purpose, so each stay has the space it deserves.
The Estate
Wake up twenty feet from a salmon river. Walk next door to a golf course. Drive 45 minutes to the crater of Mount St. Helens. Return to a sky full of stars. The only destination wedding and retreat venue in the Pacific Northwest with all of this at one address.
Weddings
Riverside ceremonies. Garden receptions across grounds we are still planting. From 2028 we host just one or two weddings a month — the whole estate, your people, the entire weekend. We choose our couples carefully, and we get to know you before we ever set a date.
Explore Weddings →Corporate Retreats
A private corporate retreat venue no one can access without your permission. Fish at dawn. Lead a strategy session at noon. Play the golf course next door before dinner. Multi-day executive retreats near Portland — with on-site lodging so your team never leaves the property.
Explore Events →Glamping & Private Stays
Luxury glamping domes directly on the Lewis River — the closest riverside glamping to Portland. A fishing guide walks to you. Golf is next door. Stargazing from your bed. The only question is why you'd ever leave.
