Located at the confluence of the Okanogan and Columbia Rivers, Brewster is a unique oasis in semi-arid country. Originally, this site served as a key navigation junction for river transport. While Charles Ballard first platted the town as Swansea in 1892, development was delayed by the 1893 depression. In 1896, a steamboat company purchased land from the original homesteader, John Bruster, and established a new landing. By 1898, a post office was opened, and the town was named Brewster—an altered version of Bruster’s name. Today, Brewster is known for its welcoming blend of history and natural beauty.
