Cherryville is an unincorporated community and former town[2] in Clackamas County, Oregon, United States,[1] founded in 1884. It is located approximately 6 miles (9.7 km) east of Sandy on U.S. Route 26,[3] near the route of the Barlow Road.[4]

The town population had dwindled to 50 in 1915, and the majority of the town was demolished in 1950 after the construction of the Mount Hood Highway. The Cherryville Cemetery still exists, and in 2014 was designated as a local historic site.
