Just so you know.. There was a town under Hagg lake. My grandpaw had the contract to clear timber and the buildings out. My family lived in the town schoolhouse for a week during the summer while my Father helped out. My family still has some of the old school desks and textbooks and some other misc. stuff from that school. I don’t have any info on all the spooky stuff though.

There is no town under Hagg Lake. The low lying land in Scoggins Valley was bought up by the bureau of reclamation in the early 1970′s and the dam was placed in 1972. My grandparents used to own the house we live in now and it’s as close as you can get to the lake without being in the park. Yes, they want to raise the dam 40′ but recent seismic testing has confirmed a fault line that runs under the western end of the dam. The earliest the raise would happen would be 2019, and no, it will not take out Cherry Grove which is located on the other side of a ridge that has a height of approximately 580 feet that it would have to go over (that’s approximately 210 feet above the proposed dam height increase). Not to mention the cost of having to buy all the land for water. I’m trying to get the project board just to buy my front 5 acres because it’ll put my house so close to the new road location as to seriously affect our quality of life. Of course, the lake will only be about 60 feet from our property line but it’s not worth it so we can provide water to Wilsonville and Beaverton.

I live on Hagg Lake and I have never seen said roads or where the buildings were. My grandma lived in the valley before it was turned into a lake and then bought a house on the edge of the valley where my mother grew up. I have always felt uneasy about being home alone but never had bad feelings down by the lake. They demolished all the houses and a church but there is still the cemetery down there. I have seen the searches for missing people. I dont think its haunted but there may be spirits around.

i grew up in forest grove and have heard all of these stories. i know that the grand lodge is very haunted. i have not experienced anything myself, but have heard many stories from friends. also, hagg lake is the place where alot of dead bodies show up. even some bodies of people they didnt even know were missing. about 2 bodies a year actually are found. the lake gets really low, but i have never actually seen anything underneath. there are rumors that when the water gets low enough, you can see some kind of tower that is still there over by the dam, but i dont believe it.

I boat at hagg lake almost every weekend and would like to know more about the history of it. When can do they drain the lake? I would like to find out so we can go see what is under us all summer long.

Yes the Grand Lodge is haunted! So is Knight Hall and Old College Hall. I am currently writing a book using the history of Forest Grove, which I hope to have published by late summer. I also belong to a local ghost hunting group which will be conducting an investigation of these places very soon – we hope! Happy Haunting!
