The Spring Creek Project offers two-week collaborative residencies in August and September to pairs of poets, fiction writers, and creative nonfiction writers at the Cabin at Shotpouch Creek in the Oregon Coast Range. The residency is open to writers who wish to pursue a collaborative project, and whose work takes inspiration from the natural world. Residents are provided with lodging in a two-bedroom cabin and a $250 stipend each. For residencies in 2020, writers submitted 8 to 10 pages of poetry or 10 to 15 pages of prose, a one-page project description, and a curriculum vitae by May 1. There was no application fee. Visit the website for an application and complete guidelines.

An accessible apartment, restroom, dining hall, meeting rooms, accessible parking, and some accessible sidewalks are available at the H. J. Andrews Experimental Forest site.
