Vernonia Springs is just far enough away from the city to get a full immersion in REAL nature, yet is only a 30-minute drive from Beaverton, Hillsboro and Portland. Your out-of-town guests will enjoy a day trip to Cannon Beach (just one-hour) or they can cruise a bike on the famous Banks-Vernonia State Trail, which connects to Vernonia Springs.
Do a group ride with your guests the day before your wedding to relax, unwind and reconnect with friends and family! Other activities include hiking trails on the property, lawn games, strolling the forest farm vegetable and flower garden, walking through the perennial flower garden and fruit orchard (where the wedding ceremony will take place), spiral through the labyrinth for good luck, or just relax next to the spring fed lake. Stub Stewart State Park is also just four miles up the bike trail for more hiking, mountain biking, frisbee golf and more. Vernonia golf course is three miles down the highway.
Come enjoy the lake, pastures, springs, creeks and more. As you are hiking the property, keep your eyes open for all of the abundant wildlife and marvel at the natural features of the property. You won’t be disappointed!
At night, relax and enjoy reconnecting with your friends and family around the campfire, while enjoying incredible
