Scottsburg

Built around a landing on the Umpqua River, Scottsburg grew into a small riverside community in Oregon’s Coast Range foothills. Pioneer Levi Scott founded the settlement in 1846, and it was named in his honour. During the 19th century, Scottsburg functioned as an inland shipping point for agricultural goods moving along the Umpqua; it also briefly served as the seat of the former Umpqua County. Today, the community sits amid the rural Umpqua Valley, where wooded slopes and grazing land follow the river corridor.
