Enchant your Guests by Hosting your Private Event on the Columbia Gorge in Oregon!

The Sternwheeler would love to host your private party.  We are the ideal platform for family reunions, birthday celebrations, anniversaries, and get-togethers.  Our captain is a licensed and ordained minister, so not only can we host your rehearsal dinner, wedding, or reception, we can perform the ceremony on board with the majesty of the Columbia Gorge as your backdrop.

Conveniently located near Portland and Mt. Hood, the Sternwheeler departs from the picturesque town of Cascade Locks. Host your next event and experience the grandeur and beauty of the Columbia Gorge. Your guests will rave about it.
