Fun Facts
Here are some of our favorite facts, quotes, and history about the Tucannon valley!
Location
The Tucannon valley is located between Dayton and Pomeroy, two great, historic towns. While the distance between the two is just 15 miles as the crow flies, the drive either through or around the deep Tucannon valley takes on average 37 minutes.
Lewis and Clark
Lewis and Clark first encountered the Tucannon river in October of 1805, as they were traveling by canoe down the Snake River. "This creek rises in the southwest [Blue] mountains, and though only twelve yards wide discharges a considerable body of water into Lewis' river (the Snake River), a few miles above the narrows. Its bed is pebbled... (I)n its narrow bottoms are found some cottonwood, willow and the underbrush which grows equally on the east branch of the Wollawollah [Touchet]".

The Last Resort
As far as we're aware, The Last Resort, which is a store and RV park, is the only place to buy food, drinks, and fishing supplies on Tucannon Road. It truly is A LAST RESORT! As kids, the owners would often be found looking for ice cream at the Last Resort after a long day of fishing.
Gone Fishing!
If you ever find yourself fishing at one of the 8 wonderful lakes in the Tucannon valley, then there is a chance you'll bump into the owners and some of our staff! These lakes are near and dear, or Deer (Lake), to many.
