Fishhawk Lake Real Estate Ten Questions Buyers Ask A Series Part 3
Question#3
Q:Where is the closest grocery store, hospital, etc. near Fishhawk Lake?
A: There are two towns to go for grocery shopping, both about a 1/2 hour away. Clatskanie has a Safeway, pharmacy, and post office, restaurants, shops, etc. It is 18 miles from Fishhawk Lake on Hwy 47N to Hwy 30 from Mist.
Here is one of the many viewpoints while traveling on Hwy 47N through Mist Oregon on the way to Clatskanie.
Vernonia is 24 miles, but takes about the same amount of time from Hwy 202 to Hwy 47South. It has a Sentry, restaurants, two hardware stores, lots of shops, bike trails, Vernonia Lake.
The closest hospital is in Longview WA, 45 minutes away. St. John's. There are many more choices in the Portland and surrounding areas as well. For trauma, usually Emanuel or OHSU are where people are transported. We have Life Flight available as we have a helipad located by our little fire station on Northshore Drive. As a Fishhawk Lake member, you can buy a yearly membership to Life Flight and Fire Med for a nominal fee, through the Mist Birkenfeld Rural Fire Protection District located on Hwy 202, 5 miles away.

We also have a nearby restaurant and bar with live music throughout the year, called The Birk, and it's only 5 miles away, located in Birkenfeld OR on Hwy 202. Lots of great blues, rock, etc. is offered and Mike and Wendy Ingraham are great owners and offer both a variety of food and venues, inside or out, depending upon the weather.
