Skamania County approved a rural event center proposal at 591 Sasquatch Way in Cougar. The project by Pine Creek Cabin, LLC includes a 2,700-square-foot cabin facility for events like weddings and family reunions. The facility will host 45-150 people per event, with four to six events monthly.
The project requires gas-powered utilities, water, and parking. Restroom facilities include the cabin plus mobile units. The county issued the SEPA notice on August 5, 2026, with public comments due by August 25. The notice does not specify costs or zoning changes.
Residents in Cougar and surrounding areas may see increased event activity at the site. The county's next step is reviewing public comments before finalizing the approval.
