Look up a McMenamins pub.  There are some that are hotels too.  Killer places to stay, drink and eat.

OMSI, and catch a laser light show

Stop by and see the Spruce Goose, a titan missile, Blackbird SR-714, and bring your trunks and hit the water park.

There is the Zoo. Rose Garden.  Alot of areas to hike and see waterfalls.  The Old Columbia Historic Hwy.  Water front is cool, and under the Burnside bridge is one of the best Saturday Markets.  Since your in Battle Ground, go see Mt. St. Helens.   
Just depends on what your looking for to do.  Come to the coast and see me run the vats at the Tillamook Cheese Factory!!
