The Marshall House is named in honor of General George C. Marshall, who lived there from 1936 to 1938, serving as Commander of the Barracks and the regional Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC). This home’s Queen Anne architecture serves a striking example of late 19th century American architecture, with ornate features including stained glass, decorative woodwork, and a round turret. The museum-like setting features period furnishings, military memorabilia, and an interpretation of Marshall’s study.
Some historians credit Marshall’s stay here and experience directing thousands of young CCC workers across the Pacific Northwest with his later success integrating an estimated eight million draftees into a cohesive, motivated fighting force in World War II.
Some of the public areas in our buildings may not be fully accessible to visitors with limited mobility. Please call in advance for more specific information: 360-992-1800.

1301 Officers Row, Vancouver, WA 98661Santa at the Marshall House presented by Columbia Credit Union
Reservations are FREE and will be available starting Friday, November 6, 2026. The Marshall House will be beautifully decorated and ready for your holiday photos. Santa will be here receiving hand-delivered letters and wish lists from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm. Guests can make holiday crafts, write a letter to Santa, listen to a holiday story, and simply enjoy some quality family time. Children will get to take home a special “snowman soup” hot cocoa packet – while supplies last.
The first hour of Santa’s visit, 9:00 am to 10:00 am, will be reserved for individuals and groups with neurodiverse members who require a less-stimulating environment. Fewer reservations will be taken and sounds and stimuli will be restrained. Please help us share holiday magic with our entire community by only reserving spots during this time if a member of your party has sensory issues.
The Marshall House is located at 1301 Officers Row, Vancouver, WA 98661.
Thank you to our presenting sponsor, Columbia Credit Union!
