Here are some pictures from my recent visit to Stevenson Washington which is located about 45 miles East of Portland, Oregon in Skamania County in the Columbia River Gorge. While you're in Stevenson it's fun to stop by the Skamania Port Waterfront and see if any boats are at the dock. Right next door is Bob's Beach if you like to windsurf or just watch the windsurfers. There are plenty of restaurant choices for a small town, all with delicious foods and within walking distance. Have a bite to eat at the Crab Shack, Joe's El Rio, Walking Man Brewery, Andrew's Pizza, or the Big River Grill. The population in the city of Stevenson is about 1200 with a total of 10,833 population in all of Skamania County. Stevenson is the County Seat of Skamania County. Other communities in Skamania County are Skamania, North Bonneville, Carson, Hemlock, Stabler, Home Valley, Mill A, Willard, Cook, & Underwood.






The Columbia Gorge is a beautiful area in Oregon and Washington. There are many small towns on both sides of the Columbia River. Hood River is a popular destination close to many outdoor recreation activities. The popular historic downtown has galleries, restaurants, shops, wineries and breweries. The Dalles is a historic town located at the end of the Oregon Trail. White Salmon is a quaint town on the Washington side where many artists have opened shops. Stevenson, another small town in Washington has become known for it's restaurants, brewery, Skamania Lodge and close proximity to Portland.
