Since 1901 the W.H. Robinson House has stood, relatively unchanged, in its current location on Salmon Creek Avenue. The house is a good example of Pioneer style and features a very large porch, gable roof, and many fine folk details. Inside the home many doorways, fireplaces, and the stair case are still accented by hand-carved designs that are very likely unique to this house.
The home was originally part of a farm greater than 200 acres in size. The farm had been homesteaded by Abraham Gentis who crossed the Oregon Trail in 1852. The farm has since been developed as a residential subdivision.
