Newell Pioneer Village is a historical site operated by the Oregon State Society Daughters of the American Revolution (OSSDAR) since 1954. The Village has four historic buildings available to tour – The Robert Newell House, Pioneer Mothers Memorial Cabin, Old Butteville Jail, and the Butteville Academy and Teacherage.


Our guests would like to share…

“Thank you SO very much for renting Newell Pioneer Village to us on June 14 for our 50th Anniversary celebration!!! The location was PERFECT!!! And the tables and croquet already set up helped so very much!!! We had a fabulous time with family and friends, renewed our vows, and enjoyed the lovely setting (along with the welcome breeze that cooled down the heat of that day). We couldn’t have chosen a better venue! Your help in answering questions and having things so nicely prepared in advance is greatly appreciated! Your venue will come highly recommended by us to others looking for a great place to enjoy their special event! Thanks again so much!!!”
