In Short
Built in 1916, Vista House is a monument to Oregon pioneers. The octagonal building sits 733 feet above the Columbia River at the top of Crown Point State Park. The house offers an exhibit on the history of the project, an art gallery, a gift shop and rental of the facility for weddings or other events. Although the actual building has limited hours, visitors can enjoy the views any time.
