Ultimate Summer Getaway

The ultimate summer getaway. Perfect for any person of any age.

Do you enjoy traveling? Crescent bar could be the place for you. Hiking, water skiing, camping (or condos if that’s your style), golf, and first class people. This is the ultimate summer get away.

Tucked into the most northwestern part of the country, Crescent Bar is tucked between the cliffs on Washington’s Columbia River. Once the stomping grounds of the Trinidad Indians, Crescent Bar is quickly becoming Washington’s paradise. Crescent bar is a man made island, perfect for a family vacation or Labor Day retreat. On the east side of the Cascade Mountain’s, Crescent bar is nothing like that of Seattle. Although only separated by three hours Crescent bar averages a summer temperature in the high 90’s to low 100’s while Seattle is in the 70-80 range. Up river from the Gorge Amphitheater, Crescent Bar is a perfect place to stay while you await that Young Jeezy concert. With two camp grounds, a residential neighborhood, and 3 large condo complexes it is the ultimate summer get away.

During the day you have the option of staying on the local beaches or enjoying a day on the water at one of the two nearby sand dunes. Whether you are a water skier, wake boarder, knee boarder, jet skier, or just a floater looking for some sun, Crescent bar is the place for you.

Known for the elaborate Labor Day and July 4th celebrations, Crescent bar can be quite a scene. Once an erratic place for partygoers the small paradise has quickly become a family place perfect for that summer get away where you can let it all go. Summer romance is quite common as the island has a romantic vibe to it. A local store supplies all of your basic necessities while two ladies apparel shops, a large pizzeria, two golf courses, a mini putt, a driving range, and a bar supply your late afternoon and late night fun. The Sand Trap Bar and Grill is notorious for the Saturday night bikini bull riding. The kids can also enjoy a game of wiffle ball in the large 3 acre park or a tennis match on one of the six tennis courts conveniently located in the middle of town. Crescent bar is an island paradise where everybody is kin and knows each other by the first name. You are sure to fall in love with the island and the atmosphere, but that’s okay because you can come back next year.
