Clark Cabin Road
Rockport, Washington

Constructed in 1997, Wildwood Chapel makes a good stop on the way to North Cascades National Park. This tiny chapel is located along Highway 20 near mile-marker 103.5, across the street from Clark’s Skagit River Resort.

There’s a level spot to parallel park near the nondenominational chapel and level access over to the pint-sized building. Constructed by local Tootsy & Rudy Clark, the chapel seats nine, with three two-person pews and three single seats. There’s a slight lip at the 28-inch doorway, but be careful if you wheel inside, because there’s no room to turn around. All in all, the best view is from the doorway.

It’s a pleasant shaded site near the Skagit River, and today many folks use it as a wayside chapel. And yes there have been weddings there.
