Founded as a timber town and a home for workers at the Cazadero hydroelectric dam over a century ago, Estacada is a symbol of resilience and adaptability. Our community has evolved and redefined itself time and again. One thing has remained constant, however, and that is the Clackamas River, which has been the lifeblood of the region across cultures and time. Its mountain waters have powered the region, provided unlimited recreation, inspired art, and forged our identity for generations. Still unknown to many, in spite of being just 30 minutes from Portland, Estacada is unexpected. The wild and scenic Clackamas River and the surrounding wilderness remains untamed and ready to explore. Come spend a day, a week, or a lifetime with us; we are confident your time here will be unforgettable. As a municipality, we are forward-thinking and welcoming to growth and industry.
