Nestled among towering fir trees lies a cottage. Born of a bygone era,
it sits like the gateway to your imagination.
Columbia Park is a large urban park on the peninsula where the mighty
Columbia river meets the Willamette. A mile long walking path circumnavigates
vast lawns, tennis courts, picnic tables, play equipment, baseball diamonds,
an indoor pool and, of course, the cottage.
The cottage in Portland, Oregon's Columbia Park was built in 1940 and
has served as field house, dance hall and National Guard command center
to name a few. In 1989, when the city wanted build a parking lot for Columbia
Pool, the neighborhood banded together and saved the magical cottage.
Today, the refirbished cottage is a compelling location for your company
seminar, family reunion or your wedding reception. Conveniently located
near the quaint St. Johns business district, the historic Kenton neighborhood,
Portsmouth neighborhood stores, Portland International Raceway,
and Jantzen Beach and with easy access to Interstate 5, the cottage and
park are easily accessible to all your attendees.
