Explore Covered Bridges and Beyond in Cottage Grove, Oregon
As you walk through the first of the six covered bridges in Cottage Grove, you will find yourself feeling the emotions of decades of the towns residents.
Romantic and nostalgic, beautiful, pastoral and quaint.
Historic Downtown, with the many building walls artistically-painted with Murals reminiscent of his era. But indeed they depict the history of Cottage Grove.
And then you'll discover that Beyond the Bridges, there are recreational activities that rival any found in the larger cities of Oregon. Whether you choose to explore the Covered Bridge route by bicycle or car, you'll find yourself breathing in the fresh air of the glorious scenery surrounding each bridge.
By bike, you'll ride the 38 miles of paved path designated as one of only two family-friendly paths in Oregon. The deep blue waters and tall trees of the slopes surrounding Dorena Lake will beckon you to stop along the way and drink in the beauty.
By car, you might drive the route that allows you to roll through a covered bridge and then continue to spectacular Brice Creek Falls to the southeast, or to the winery tasting rooms found in every direction outside of town. Or spend the day Geocaching the Territorial GeoTour Loop.
By now you've realized that there is just too much to do in one day and you've not yet enjoyed dining in one of the many fine restaurants or taken in a live performance at the local Cottage Theatre.
To remedy your desire to spend more time in Cottage Grove, find your way to lodge at Village Green Resort and Gardens (featuring over 14 acres of spectacular flora and fauna) and then spend the following day visiting Territorial Seed Company or maybe playing 18 holes at the city's beautiful Middlefield Golf Course.
Arrive by car (just off I-5) or by private aircraft, landing at the municipal airport and enjoy a town of annual festivals and historical museums. See artifacts from the area's gold mining years at the Bohemia Gold Mining Museum, visit the Oregon Aviation Historical Society's Museum or learn about the city's rich history at the Cottage Grove Museum. This is a city with a main street embellished with hanging flower baskets, shops with unique goods and friendly merchants who love this city and take pride in being residents.
Come to Cottage Grove, visit the Covered Bridges, and then explore beyond them to ride the routes, play in the lakes and waterfalls, and step back in time to enjoy the spirit of welcome we extend.

Oregon Ghost Towns: Musick Mine, Bohemia City, and Bohemia Mountain
We recently traveled to Bohemia Mountain which sits nestled in the Cascade Mountain Range in the Umpqua National Forest about 25 miles southeast of Cottage Grove, OR. Near Bohemia Mountain is the ghost town of Bohemia City which once consisted of houses, hotels and a saloon, but now only an old post office (1893-1922) and some mining equipment remain, as well as the now closed off Musick Mine. The first gold in this area was discovered in 1858. In 1863 Bohemia Johnson (an outlaw who was on the run for killing an American Indian in Roseburg) found lode gold while dressing a deer. He and some other miners formed the mining district in 1867. Musick Mine was named after James Musick who came to mine the area in 1891 and discovered more gold in the area. The area is known to have been mined for gold, silver, lead, copper, and zinc.

In the late 1600s, a Spanish galleon from Manila went down in a storm off the Oregon coast. Its cargo? A bounty of beeswax, used for candles to light the churches and major institutions of the Spanish colonies. Beeswax and other artifacts from the epic shipwreck are still being found on beaches today. In this edition of Mossback's Northwest, Knute Berger recalls the complicated journey that some observers say resulted in the first-ever contact between Europeans and Northwest indigenous peoples.
