509-689-3464 In 1811, John Jacob Astor's Pacific Fur Company established Fort Okanogan just north of the present site of Brewster, which was the first American post in Washington. In 1859, the area experienced a gold rush, and by 1880, steamboats had become a common sight on the Columbia River as far north as Brewster. Most of the settlers in the area were cattle and sheep ranchers. Brewster was officially incorporated in 1910. The construction of the railroad through Brewster in 1914 created more opportunities for the region, including mining and logging. With water from both the Methow and Okanogan Rivers joining the Columbia just north and south of Brewster, you have great access to some great fishing and to some beautiful sights. Just 70 miles from Wenatchee and 25 miles from Lake Chelan, Brewster offers uncrowded parks, fishing, water recreation, water slides and friendly folks. If you are looking to relocate or for a great vacation getaway, Brewster is a wonderful place to be!
