Custom Home Builder in Yamhill County, Oregon

Yamhill County is where Creekside Homes was founded, where we're headquartered, and where we've built more custom homes than anywhere else. From McMinnville to Newberg, Dundee to Sheridan, we know every community, every permitting office, and every subcontractor in this county. Yamhill County is Oregon wine country — and it's home.

Building in Yamhill County

Yamhill County's building landscape spans urban lots in McMinnville and Newberg, suburban development in the Highway 99W corridor, and vast rural acreage throughout the surrounding hills and valleys. County permitting governs most builds outside city limits, with each incorporated city managing its own development code within town. We've built under every jurisdiction in the county and know the specific requirements, timelines, and relationships that keep projects moving.

Building across Yamhill County means adapting to diverse terrain — from flat valley-floor sites in Dayton and Lafayette to steep hillside parcels in the Dundee Hills and Chehalem Mountains. Soil conditions vary from volcanic Jory to valley clay, each requiring different foundation approaches. Well and septic systems are common on rural parcels. Our two decades of building here mean we don't encounter surprises — we anticipate them.
