It all started with a vision…

In 2006 Lexie Hager had a vision… A vision to take a small cottage sitting next to a creek in Wamic, Oregon and turn it into The Cottage by the Creek. A place where the community can come to shop and have a treat. After pouring in her heart and soul and a lot of elbow grease, The Cottage by the Creek was born. As the years went by, the Cottage transformed into a staple of our community providing excellent customer service, gifts, antiques, home decor and re-homing items people no longer needed. Lexie also wanted to bring more to the Cottage and also introduced Ice Cream and Espresso. The Cottage has always prided itself on providing excellent customer service and treating all who come in like family.

Now 13 years later, in 2019, Lexie started by offering baked goods, soups , sandwiches and salads. The Cottage has added breakfast and lunch service as well transforming it into a warm inviting cafe… Now offering catering, pies and cakes for all those special occasions. Lexie’s daughter Lisa, has added an online gift shop started in 2021. The online shop called Enchantments is just another perk of The Cottage By The Creek. Enchantments offers handmade and resale items to be shipped anywhere in the world. Check out our online store on the Cottage page!

The love and support of family and friends has been astounding, the dedication is so appreciated and also the loyalty of the customers. The Cottage looks forward to serving the community for many more years. We hope that you will stop by soon, because there really is something for everyone at The Cottage by the Creek.
