Travel just 23 miles east from the heart of Portland for a retreat like no other. Camp Crestview
sits on over 50 acres of land, overlooking the majestic Columbia River Gorge and boasting
lush woodlands, wild flowers, nature trails, panoramic views and breath taking sunsets. The
facilities original character remains intact with a full spectrum of modern conveniences added
to enhance your experience.
A Spectacular Setting for Any Occasion
Since 1953, Camp Crestview has welcomed thousands of guests to enjoy its distinctive
warmth and beauty. Edward Ehrman, a Portland wholesale grocer, constructed this
mansion, earlier known as "Ehrmanor," as a summer home for his family. Architect
A.E. Doyle, who also designed structures such as the Multnomah County Library, the
first Menucha mansion, and the Multnomah Falls Lodge, designed this beautiful
structure in the English Cottage style. The Manor was constructed over a two-year
period using imported stone from Italy and the finest cherry wood for its interior.
Located high atop the cliffs overlooking a spectacular view of the Columbia River
Gorge, this original 11,000 square foot summer retreat included amenities such as an
open truss ceiling, three large fireplaces, banks of French doors, tennis court,
swimming pool and a reflecting pond.
In 1933, the Ehrman family sold the estate
to second owner, Jim Roby who stayed at
the manor during the summers. The third
owner, Edwin Hollinshead, acquired the
property and changed the name to
"Crestview Manor" as a place for large
business parties and formal balls. Patrioti-
cally supporting the home front during
World War II , the carriage house and barn were remodeled into apartments to pro-
vide free housing for local school teachers.
Then in 1952, the Northwest District of the International Church of the Foursquare
Gospel purchased the property, developing a whole new purpose for the former show
piece. 1953 marked the first summer of youth and children's camps held at Crestview,
a tradition that continues to this day.
Today
Camp Crestview is owned and operated by the International Church of the
Foursquare Gospel. Crestview serves several thousand guests annually by
hosting camps, retreats, conferences, banquets, weddings and special
events.
