Summit is an unincorporated community and census-designated place in Benton County, Oregon, United States. At the 2010 census, it had a population of 82.[1] Summit lies on Oregon Route 180 northwest of Blodgett.

Since 1980 – at least up to 2012 – Summit is known locally for its small Summit Summer Festival, a Hippie-style gathering with food and music, at which artisans offer their products, e.g. hand made knives, quilting; artists make their shows e.g. big soap bubbles and visitors get involved.[2][3]
