Saint Helens sits on the Columbia River north of Portland, a riverfront Oregon town of an old waterfront district that has stood in for movie sets and a courthouse square above the water. The Best Western Oak Meadows Inn makes a comfortable base in Saint Helens, Oregon, close to the riverfront, the historic district, the Portland suburbs, and the farms and forests of Columbia County.
Along the Columbia River north of Portland, the hotel makes a quiet base in a riverfront town. A free breakfast opens the morning, the rooms hold a flat-screen TV, microwave, and refrigerator, and free parking sits right outside. Saint Helens' old waterfront district, with its brick storefronts above the river, has stood in for film towns. Sand Island and the river beaches give Saint Helens easy access to the Columbia for boating and fishing.
Downtown riverfront strolls, the county's farms, and Portland beyond all sit close by. Settle in and let the Columbia set the pace.
