We was motivated to go to Maryhill Museum because of my Romanian heritage and were SO impressed. We stayed for nearly four hours taking in all the art, history, chess sets, indian artifacts, the view and the grounds. What an incredible place!

Have take a tour several times, always something different to see. Have gone to some of the activities they have. Great for family and history
This small museum on the Columbia River, near Goldendale Wa is a wonderful experience. If you are traveling North/South on highway 97 at the border between Washington and Oregon, this is a remarkable detour. Beautiful settings and a wonderful mansion built by Sam Hill will charm you ,but it's some serious art work that are at the heart of this...

Maryhill has a history that connects so many places I have been. From St. Paul Minnesota to Seattle to San Diego, then add in Romania and old-world Europe...I just love to connect the dots!
The veiw of the columbia river is great from the parking lot, but in our veiw,that is the highlight of the outing. With only about a dozen classic paintings,a few interesting scuptures,a parisian doll collection and the most amazing chess set collection to be found in Klickitat county we suggest that you look elsewhere in the Gorge for artistic enlightment.
On the patio outside the museum, there is a sculpture that I found to be amazing. As you walk past it, it seems to disappear into thin air. I took a short video of it, but it does not do it justice. The real effect is much more dramatic. I have put the video on youtube http://olivercorpsofdiscovery.info/videos/maryhill-museum-disappearing-statue/ noeldoliver@gmail.com
This museum is a must-see even if you're just in the general area. The artwork is astonishing. From floor-to-ceiling giant paintings, to incredibly intricate carvings, to a vast array of handmade original Indian works. It is bound to be fascinating to the average person, and far more fascinating still to the aspiring artist. There is a lot to learn here....

We were in the area going to the Stonehenge replica and decided last minute to stop in, what a treat! A little bit of everything... who would have thought that such beauty exists out in the middle of Eastern WA? Some classic art, some burlesque reference, some Parisian fashion that spans many decades, some religious artifacts/icons, tons of native artifacts,...

This museum was incredibly surprising. On a recent road trip to Portland we detoured to Goldendale to visit here and the Stonehenge replica. The view from the museum is breathtaking, my main advice is to bring a camera. There is a fee to enter the museum, but trust me it is completely worth any charge. There is a beautifully curated...
