ENDLESS ADVENTURE A haven for lovers of the great outdoors

isitors to the historic town of Cottage Grove will find it and the surrounding area to be literally a gold mine of activity and exploration for all ages. There are nuggets to be found in both the town and country for those willing to search them out.

Dorena Lake is six miles east of Cottage Grove by way of Row River Road. This large lake covers 1,900 acres when full and features camping, a large boat ramp and picnic area at nearby Baker Bay Park. Schwarz Park is nearby and also offers camping.

The entire family will want to explore our historic downtown with its beautiful city parks, colorful murals, museums and small businesses.

Umpqua National Forest boasts a wide selection of hiking trails, campgrounds, picnicking spots, waterfalls and places to commune with nature. The forest covers 984,602 acres of mountain woodlands and is about 15 miles east of town, beyond Dorena Lake.

Recreation opportunities abound for those who are inclined to get out and explore the countryside, including a covered bridge tour and the Bohemia mining district. There are two U.S. Army Corps of Engineer reservoirs located outside of town that draw locals and visitors from around the state to their shores. Serene Cottage Grove Lake is a short five-mile drive south of town going out Sixth Street to London and Reservoir roads. The lake is three miles long and covers 1,158 acres when it’s full. Tent and RV camping are available at Pine Meadows Campground, in addition to a nearby primitive campground. Swimming, fishing and picnicking are also available at Shortridge and Wilson Creek Parks.

The Row River Trail is a popular Rails-to-Trails project that begins in Cottage Grove and winds 17 miles along the Row River, passing Dorena Lake along the way. It is a safe, scenic path that is paved for walking, biking or horseback riding. The gentle hills are possible for most stages of fitness, and the gorgeous scenery makes the effort worthwhile. Culture comes in many forms and includes performances at the Cottage Theatre’s beautiful state-of-the-art, $1 million facility that attracts and features local actors in a variety of plays. Other annual events include the rodeo and Bohemia Mining Days celebration in July, the WOE Heritage Fair in August, and the December lighting of the Main Street Christmas tree.

CULTURE AND CLASS A taste of the finer things

Cottage Theatre

he Cottage Theatre has a reputation as one of Lane County’s finest community theatres. Now in its 33rd year, sold-out shows are not uncommon, and the theatre has added Thursday night performances to its traditional weekend schedule in order to meet this growing demand. Currently Cottage Theatre performs to audiences of more than 11,000 people each year in its 151-seat facility. Part of the mission of the theatre is to provide a creative outlet for the community members. CT actors, directors, designers and crewmembers are all volunteers with a

passion for theatre. New volunteers are always welcome. Cottage Theatre currently produces a year-round main season of six productions annually. The 2015 season opened with “12th Night” in January and continues April 10-May 3 with the epic Broadway musical, “Les Misérables.” A story of love, genius and instability, “Proof,” is on stage June 12-28, followed by a musical patchwork of pioneer life, “Quilt,” Aug. 14-30. Next is “Jesus Christ Superstar,” the soul-stirring rock musical about the Passion of Christ (Oct. 2-25). Cottage Theatre’s

2015 season concludes with a fantastical journey into the world of Narnia in “The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe,” Dec. 4-20. In addition to its main season, Cottage Theatre offers camps for youth ages 5 to 14 each summer. SKIT Camp, which will be held June 2226 this year, is a week-long morning day camp especially for young actors ages 5-8. The camp includes instruction in acting, singing and dance and culminates in an informal performance for families. From July 6-17, Cottage Theatre will host its annual Melodrama Camp, a

performance camp for actors 9-14. Melodrama Camp culminates in three public performances of an original melodrama (written by Cottage Grove playwright Keith Kessler) on July 17, 18 and 19 during Bohemia Mining Days. Cottage Theatre is located at 700 Village Drive in Cottage Grove, just across the street from the hospital. For more information about becoming involved, or for a current show schedule, visit www. cottagetheatre.org or call the theatre box office at (541) 942-8001.

The Cottage Theatre wowed theater lovers with their version of the classic “Fiddler on the Roof.”

COVERED BRIDGE CAPITAL OF OREGON Centennial Bridge This bridge was constructed in 1987 by volunteer labor to celebrate Cottage Grove’s centennial. It rests on abutments of the old Main Street Bridge, which stood until the 1950s. Swinging Bridge Located a half-mile upstream from Centennial Bridge, Swinging Bridge was built for foot and bicycle traffic and was mostly used by children crossing the Coast Fork to get to school. Chambers Railroad Bridge Built in 1925 by lumberman J.H. Chambers to cross the Coast Fork of the Willamette River from his sawmill to the timberlands west of town, this is the only covered railroad bridge west of the Mississippi River. Mosby Creek Bridge Constructed in 1920 and restored in 1990, this is the oldest bridge in Lane County. Its one lane remains open to traffic today.

Stewart Bridge Constructed in 1930 and restored in 1996, this structure has semi-circular portal arches, ribbon openings at the eaves, and decorative S-curve brackets. The deep water below the bridge is considered one of the best swimming holes in the county. Dorena Bridge Constructed in 1949 and restored in 1996, this bridge was built after the construction of Dorena Dam on the Row River, forming the present day lake. The Dorena Bridge once tied the roads on the north and south sides of the lake. Closed to traffic, the bridge is a popular wedding site. Currin Bridge Constructed in 1925 and restored in 1995, this bridge features white portals and red sides. Currin Bridge replaced an earlier covered bridge built in 1883 by a prominent local bridge builder, Nels Roney.

A stroll around Cottage Grove just isn’t complete without a walk over the Centennial Bridge, constructed in 1987.

The Currin Bridge and its counterparts are one of the most frequently cited reasons for a visit to Cottage Grove by out-of-towners.

HISTORY AND ITS STEWARDS Bridging the past and future Cottage Grove history

he Kalapuya Indians called the southern Willamette Valley and northern Douglas County home, though their numbers quickly diminished as some left the area to avoid the white setters who began arriving here in 1848. Disease and a move to reservations reduced local Kalapuya populations, and Sam Fern, the last fullblooded Kalapuya, passed away Sept. 4, 1919. Many early settlers traveled to Cottage Grove on the Applegate Trail, which left the Oregon Trail in Idaho, crossed Nevada and came into southern Oregon over the Cascade Mountains. Other settlers followed the northern route down the Columbia River to Oregon

City and then traveled south through the Willamette Valley to Lane County. The Donation Land Claim Act brought more Americans to seek a life in Oregon. James Chapin came to the Willamette Valley from the west, crossing the Coast Range after his ship floundered off the Oregon Coast. He settled south of Cottage Grove and his house-built in 1865-stands derelict today on Dugan Lane. A cottage owned by Greenbery C. Pearce was home to the first post office in 1855. It was located in an oak grove near Creswell — hence the name Cottage Grove. After the railroad arrived in 1872, a feud broke out between west siders and

those east of the river in the town of Lemati over which side of the river the post office would occupy. Over time, homes and businesses filled in between the two settlements and they became known as Cottage Grove. Travel by horseback and wagons gave way to the railroad until the Pacific Highway was constructed at the site of present-day River Road. Later, Highway 99 became the main north-south route on the Pacific Coast. In 1957, Interstate 5 opened on the east side of the city. Agriculture and timber have been among the town’s major industries from its earliest days, and after World War II, mills in the area expanded as a building boom drove the nation’s economy.

Mining was also a means for early residents to fill their purses. As early as 1863 gold was discovered in the Bohemia Mountains (so named for one of its early miners, James “Bohemia” Johnson). Bohemia City was founded in 1866 and mining began in earnest in the 1890s, bringing an influx of businesses into Cottage Grove. Flooding was a common problem in Cottage Grove until the 1940s, when the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers constructed Cottage Grove Reservoir on the Coast Fork and Dorena Reservoir on Row River.

Museums and historical libraries

oday, a snapshot of the area’s history is displayed at the Cottage Grove Museum, located at H Street and Birch Avenue in an octagonal building that once was home to the Catholic Church. The Cottage Grove Historical Library, located at 737 Main St., also contains much information about businesses, buildings, churches and schools that pertains to the development of the area. Residents and business people have worked to preserve the flavor of the community by preserving many historic buildings and adding murals, creating a bridge between yesterday and today.
