Umatilla

Nestled on the shores of the Columbia River, Umatilla is the fastest-growing city in Eastern Oregon.

It blends small-town charm with new opportunities. Once a booming hub during the Western gold rush, the city continues to thrive with expanding industries and a strong connection to the rivers.

The Umatilla National Wildlife Refuge teems with burrowing owls, badgers, deer, and migratory birds. Enjoy a round at Big River Golf Course, observe spawning chinook and steelhead at the fish hatchery, or set out by boat to explore the vast treasures of the Columbia River.
