Coffee Creek Correctional Facility is a women's prison and prisoner intake center in Wilsonville, Oregon, United States.[2][3] Operated by the Oregon Department of Corrections, the 1,684-bed facility opened in 2001 at a 108-acre (0.44 km2) campus. The selection of the location for the prison was controversial and included legal challenges. The minimum and medium security facility operates several programs designed to teach skills to inmates. Coffee Creek is the only women's prison in Oregon.[4]

Female state death row inmates in Oregon are designated to be held in this facility.[5]
