Plush is an unincorporated rural community in the Warner Valley of Lake County, in the U.S. state of Oregon.〔 The community is in an arid, sparsely populated part of the state about northeast of Lakeview. The valley surrounding Plush contains many marshes and shallow lakes, most of them intermittent.
Frequented by Native Americans for many thousands of years, the valley became a region of sheep grazing and cattle ranching by the late 19th century. Plush's infrastructure includes a store, an elementary school, and a church. Nearby attractions include Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge, Warner Wetlands, and the Oregon Sunstone Public Collection Area.
==History==
People have lived in the Warner Valley for more than 10,000 years. Evidence of Native American occupation includes petroglyphs, hunting blinds, flakes from obsidian tools, and other material artifacts. By historic times, the Kidütökadö band of Northern Paiute frequented the valley and the uplands of Hart Mountain, the fault block ridge to the east.
The Euro-American settler community of Plush developed in the late 19th century around sheep grazing and small cattle ranches. Catholics from Ireland found work here as shepherds; their surnames and their churches are part of the regional heritage.
The name ''Plush'' is said to have derived from a mispronunciation of the word ''flush'' during a 19th century poker game played in the community. The Plush post office was established in 1888, and David R. Jones was the first postmaster.〔 Daniel Boone, a relative of the famous Kentucky pathfinder of the same name, became postmaster in 1898 and opened a general store in conjunction with the post office.
