Lookup Skamania County Correctional Facility Inmates

Skamania County Correctional Facility Overview

Skamania County Correctional Facility, also referred to as Skamania County Jail, is operated by the Skamania County Sheriff's Office. The sheriff's corrections page says the jail is responsible for the housing and welfare of all subjects arrested within Skamania County. It also notes that Skamania contracts with the Washington Department of Corrections and with Battle Ground, Washougal, and Camas Municipal Courts to house inmates. That makes the facility both a local jail and a regional contract-housing point for certain court or agency holds.

The facility is an adult local correctional facility. Classification and housing assignment are handled by jail staff. The current sheriff page does not publish a rated bed count. A 2015 Clark County staff report referenced 67 beds in a jail-services context, but that should be treated as historical context rather than current official capacity. The public daily roster inspected on July 2, 2026 showed 23 numbered current population rows, which is a point-in-time count rather than average daily population.

Skamania County Correctional Facility Population

The facility's public population information comes through the sheriff's Daily Population roster. It is not a live dashboard with booking trends, releases, capacity pressure, or average length of stay. The July 2, 2026 sheet showed rows tied to Superior Court, District Court, Stevenson Municipal or Other, DOC, Clark County Sheriff's Office, and other court or contract contexts. Several rows had Sent. Y/N values, but the public page does not define that flag.

Who Skamania County Jail Holds

The facility holds adults arrested within Skamania County, but the holding authority can vary from row to row. The roster legend includes Superior Court, District Court, Other Courts, Camas Municipal, Washougal Municipal, Battle Ground Municipal, Department of Corrections, Stevenson Municipal, and Clark County Sheriff's Office abbreviations. A person housed in Stevenson may therefore be tied to a Skamania case, a municipal court contract, a DOC issue, a Clark County-related hold, or a court order from another listed source.

This is why release and records questions should start with the row's court or agency code. A local Skamania charge may move through District Court or Superior Court. A DOC hold may require state confirmation. A municipal court placement may involve an outside court. A no-bond hold, probation violation, failure-to-appear warrant, or detainer may stop release even when another listed case appears minor. The jail can confirm current custody, but the court or agency that issued the hold controls many next steps.

Look Up Skamania Facility Inmates

The correct lookup system for Skamania County Correctional Facility is the SCSO Daily Population roster. It is a public Google Sheet, not a full inmate-profile portal. Search by using browser find or scanning the table. The roster should be used for current jail custody and contract holds housed in this facility. If a person has been sentenced and transferred to state prison, use WADOC instead.

1. Open the Daily Population roster and allow the embedded sheet to load.
2. Search the person's last name, then compare first name and middle initial.
3. Check the court or agency code, charge or hold, Arr., Sent., booking date, and time.
4. Call 509-427-9490 if the status flag, release possibility, or holding agency is unclear.
5. Use WADOC, BOP, ICE ODLS, WA VINE, or Washington Courts if the person is outside current local jail custody.

The public Skamania roster sheet shows the current facility population in row form.

The sheet format explains why phone confirmation is still important for bond, housing, court dates, and holds.

Skamania Facility Address and Contact

The best physical-address evidence in the research is the agency-supplied Public Safety Testing profile, which lists 200 NW Vancouver Ave, POB 790, Stevenson, WA 98648. SCSO pages use PO Box 790, phone 509-427-9490, and fax 509-427-4369. Do not confuse the jail with the nearby courthouse at 240 NW Vancouver Ave unless the destination is court.

The facility sits in downtown Stevenson near the county courthouse and civic offices. Visitors coming from the west generally use SR-14 eastbound from the Vancouver, Camas, and Washougal area. Visitors coming from the east use SR-14 westbound from Carson, White Salmon, or the Hood River Bridge area. From Oregon, the common route is I-84 to a Columbia River crossing such as the Bridge of the Gods, then SR-14 to Stevenson. The sheriff pages do not publish a dedicated visitor parking map or jail-specific transit route, so confirm those details locally before traveling.

Visit Skamania County Correctional Facility

The SCSO corrections page publishes visitation windows by custody group and asks visitors to schedule through the jail visitation sign-up button. The visible research did not capture a day-of-week schedule, so do not rely on third-party visitation days. Confirm the appointment, day, ID requirements, dress rules, and entry limits directly with the jail before travel. Visitors should expect screening and should not bring weapons, contraband, food, drink, or unnecessary property.

Mail, Phone, and Money at Skamania

Inmate mail should be addressed exactly as SCSO publishes it: Skamania County Correctional Facility, Attn: inmate name, PO Box 790, Stevenson, WA 98648. Use the full name that appears on the roster. Call before sending books, packages, photos, or unusual items. The inmate handbook index includes mail restrictions, legal mail, incoming and outgoing mail, and mailing supplies, but detailed rules should be verified with staff.

SCSO links to Inmate Canteen for adding money, ordering commissary, purchasing phone cards, and sending emails to inmates in the facility. Fees and limits were not posted on the SCSO corrections page, so verify vendor charges before payment.

Booking and Intake at Skamania

People enter the facility after an arrest, court order, warrant, transfer, or contract hold. The roster shows the jail records court or agency source, charge or hold, booking date, and other row data. The handbook index confirms intake-related topics such as issued property, inmate items, classification, housing assignments, searches, medical services, medication, inmate accounts, grievances, discipline, good time, work programs, and release.

Booking does not guarantee that a formal court case is already searchable. A roster hold can be an arrest charge, failure to appear, serve-time entry, probation violation, DOC hold, or another agency's request. For filed charges, use Washington Courts and the correct clerk. For release terms, call the jail or the court that set the hold.

Records and Transfers from Skamania

The daily population roster is only the first records source for Skamania County Correctional Facility. Older booking records, jail-register questions, and sheriff records that are not posted online should go through the Skamania County Public Records Center. Requests should name the person, date range, and type of record. Washington's jail-register law allows public access to basic confinement details, but many individual jail records remain confidential unless a legal exception applies.

A person can also leave the facility without appearing in another local jail search. After a state sentence, custody may transfer to WADOC reception and then to a prison outside Skamania County. After a federal case or immigration action, the lookup path may shift to BOP or ICE systems. WA VINE can help with custody notifications, but it does not clear warrants, set bond, or replace the holding agency's own records. If the Skamania roster no longer lists the person, check the court record, call the jail, and then move to the correct state or federal locator.

Programs at Skamania County Jail

Skamania's strongest locally documented program detail is the work crew. SCSO says the jail work crew uses in-custody and out-of-custody individuals and has built handicap picnic tables for the Columbia Gorge Scenic Area, manufactured information signs for the Mount St. Helens Volcanic Monument, and removed noxious weeds from Gifford Pinchot National Forest and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers property. The sheriff page also links Work Crew and Work Release applications.

The inmate handbook index adds broader facility topics, including basic rights and privileges, behavior rules, classification, living area rules, inspections, searches, clothing exchange, laundry, food and nutrition, special diets, medical and dental services, law library, professional visits, legal mail, religious material, grievances, discipline, segregation, furlough, good time, work programs, and releases. No ACA accreditation claim was found in the research.
