Three Phases.
One Estate.

We're building Lewis River Estate & Gardens the right way — in stages, with intention, without cutting corners. Here's exactly what we're building, when, and why.

Phase 1: Spring 2027 • Phase 2: Spring 2028 • Phase 3: Spring 2029 • 45 min from Portland

Lewis River Estate & Gardens — Development Phases

Lewis River Estate & Gardens opens in three phases at 3447 Old Lewis River Rd, Woodland, Washington — 45 minutes from Portland (PDX) and 30 minutes from Vancouver, WA. Phase 1 (Spring 2027): outdoor wedding and event venue — covered ceremony patio, secret garden, greenhouse, Lewis River frontage, 2 guest suites (4 on-site overnight guests), up to 150 event guests. Phase 2 (Spring 2028): first Zome glamping dome (4 guests, river views, climate-controlled), outdoor kitchen, natural pool under investigation. Phase 3 (Spring 2029): multiple Zomes, 15–20 total on-site overnight capacity. All phases include full-estate exclusive buyout — one event per date.

Why Phases?

We'd rather build it right than promise it fast.

A lot of venues overpromise. We're not doing that. The estate grounds and venue spaces come first — the bones of something special. Then accommodations. Then the full experience we've been imagining. Every phase is designed to be genuinely excellent on its own, while setting up the next one.

If you book in Phase 1, you're getting the real thing — a spectacular outdoor venue on the Lewis River, exclusively yours. What grows from there is the story we're all building together.

Every Phase

What never changes.

Some things are built in from day one and don't get added later. These are the bones of Lewis River Estate — present at every phase.

🌌

Lewis River Frontage

Direct access to the Lewis River — one of the Pacific Northwest's premier salmon and steelhead rivers. Ceremonies, fire pits, morning walks, guided fishing — all from the estate grounds.

🌿

Private Estate Grounds

Manicured botanical gardens, secret garden, greenhouse, covered patio, and expansive lawns — all exclusively yours on your date. No shared spaces, no other events.

Golf Next Door

Lewis River Golf Course is immediately adjacent — walkable from the estate. The only venue in the Pacific Northwest where you can walk from ceremony to 18 holes.

🔒

Full-Estate Exclusivity

One event per date, no exceptions. Your celebration is the only thing happening on the property — every square foot, entirely yours.

Dark Skies & Aurora

Minimal light pollution, northern exposure over the Lewis River — one of the best aurora viewing locations accessible from Portland. Milky Way and meteor showers visible most clear nights.

🌿

45 Minutes from Portland

Close enough to feel accessible, far enough to feel like a world away. 45 min from PDX, 30 min from Vancouver, WA — no destination price tag, no destination logistics.
