North Bend Oregon

North Bend, Oregon (Cities) image

On a peninsula formed by the great bend in the Coos River as it flows to the Pacific Ocean, North Bend (Coos County) thrives on commercial fisheries, lumber, manufacturing and tourism. This community is also the gateway to the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area. Coos Bay is the sister city to North Bend, which leads to the fishing village of Charleston.

North Bend's history dates back to the 1850s, when there were sawmills and a handful of houses. A lumberman, Louis Simpson settled and named the town. Simpson’s father started the town’s original sawmill and expanded with machines shops and foundry, a woolen mill, a furniture factory, brewery and two shipyards, which turned out a steady stream of wooden schooners that took Simpson lumber to San Francisco and other distant markets. North Bend was incorporated in 1903.
