Washougal Housing Stock
Washougal's housing reflects its history as a small mill and manufacturing town along the Columbia. The older downtown core holds early-to-mid-1900s homes with real character and dated systems, while newer development climbs the hills above the Washougal River with more recent construction. Like Camas, Washougal sits at the entrance to the Columbia River Gorge, so consistent wind exposure — not just rain — is a real design factor for siding, roofing, and exterior trim, alongside the moisture management every Pacific Northwest exterior needs.
