Family-friendly holiday rentals in Minnehaha

All the rave reviews were accurate! We had a great time and the same has everything you might need. Immediate relaxation!

The Little House was peaceful & quiet, with a nice private yard for me & my dogs! Chris was helpful and friendly, I would recommend his place to anyone!

Gem of SE is right. Walkable to coffee shops and all of Hawthorne without being in the hussle. Air conditioning during a Portland summer, oh ya, theve got it! Very peaceful backyard. Felt secluded in the hot tub. This place is great! The shower is missing a door but other than that, everything was amazing.

This home was a great stay for myself, my wife, and my 3 boys! The kids loved the hot tub. We even went for a walk up the hill past the vineyard and they loved that also. The forest environment was just what they had asked for. We would definitely consider coming back again!

It’s more comfortable and more beautiful than all the pictures. The river is completely visible from the living room and you can hear it all night. Within a 20 minute drive you can find amazing spots for hiking, swimming, scenic views, a few local restaurants(Pacific Northwest Pizza is amazing!), and just about anything else you would want from a location like this. If you’re willing to go an hour or two away you can get to Mt. St. Helens, the Gifford Pinchot National Forest, the Columbia River Gorge, and plenty more. The only hiccup we had for our stay was when we accidentally locked ourselves out and the Wi-Fi happened to be down(the provider’s issue, not our wonderful hosts’!). Thankfully someone was at the other house on the property to help us. The hosts were always very friendly and respectful of our privacy. We loved our time here so much and would recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful, peaceful, and fun place to get away. We hope to come back some day!

Our stay was incredible! Rachel And Rico perfectly described their lovely home, and even then, it was more thanwhat we could have thought. Perfectly located near Sandy, we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. Relaxing in the hot tub and hearing the river near the property was very relaxing. Rachel And Rico were incredibly helpful and responsive, and even checked on us during our stay. When I one day come back to Oregon again, I will definitely stay here again.

An absolute gem of a place to stay. Do not hesitate to book. Beautifully designed. Wonderful wolf gas rage in a state full of electric stoves. A wonderful place to stay with friends, we didn’t want to leave. We will be back. Bigger than I expected from the photos. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

An unforgettable and peaceful getaway! Our stay at this Airbnb was truly amazing. From the moment we arrived, the hosts were incredibly accommodating and helpful, making sure we had everything we needed for a relaxing and enjoyable trip. The property itself was peaceful and beautifully maintained—perfect for unwinding and disconnecting. One of the unexpected highlights was the collection of musical instruments available to use, which added such a unique and fun touch to the stay. Overall, it was a memorable experience and the perfect escape. Highly recommended—we can’t wait to come back!

The cabin was very peaceful situated right next to a creek. My favorite part of my stay was drinking my coffee while sitting right next to the creek in the morning. Such a beautiful place, the cabin has everything you could need and felt very cozy. We enjoyed our one night stay and found it hard to leave the next day. We definitely recommend if you are needing a relaxing getaway near Portland!

We loved staying here! It was quite warm in Portland but the temperature was perfect during our stay at the apartment. We walked to restaurants and shops on Alberta and the near by parks were great for our dogs. The hosts were very welcoming and we would love to stay again on our next Portland trip!

Exactly what we needed. This spot is in a very quiet, beautiful neighborhood. 10/10

We stayed here Thurs-Sun for friend weekend without kids and pets and tbere were 6 of us who stayed and we had a few friends stop by for a BBQ one night and this place was perfect for our needs. We had lots of space and the home wasn't cluttered and was very well cleaned. The home is really close to all the amenities you need and only about 10 mins from the cascade amphitheater. Unfortunately the garbage disposal backed up during our stay and the grill was reeeeally dirty so we had to give it a hard scrub to be usable. Otherwise no complaints the host is super friendly and accommodating and there were tons of towels and pillows for everyone (which a lot of airbnbs go cheap on or bare minimum). Overall very happy with our stay!

We had a lovely stay at Stephen’s place! Hidden away behind the main house, the place felt secluded and private. It was equipped with everything we needed to cook, and stocked with thoughtful toiletries. Close to all the main grocery stores, and walking distance to Hollywood Theater. I highly recommend staying here!

This was my second stay with Andrea and it didn’t disappoint. Cozy and calm retreat within walking distance of all the Mississippi fun. Loved having morning coffee with my dog on the outdoor patio space. This is earmarked on my Portland list for my future trips.

Awesome stay at Denny’s place. This is the second time I stayed there because the location is perfect and the apartment is sweet. It is everything you could need for a fun visit to Portland especially if you are a walker! My dog Ozzie gives five stars for the private backyard.

Immaculate place, most comfortable bed ever, peaceful and quiet.

Very clean and well kept space! Would definitely stay again, we loved it. Bridget was very kind and responsive as well!

The Pickle was a great place for our family. Kitchen has everything you need and the place was clean. It’s in a small neighborhood which was quiet during our stay.

WOW, nice little gem we. And across when I saw this listing. We loved it so much we stayed another extra day. The place is clean and so relaxing. We will be back for sure.

The trailer was great. What an awesome idea! It was so nice being right in the middle of wine country and being able to drive down the road. The extra accoutrama like the pour over coffee and space heater made this better than it needed to be. Would definitely do this place again, thanks!

We had a great stay at Nedra’s place! We loved the walking path in the back next to the river, it was beautiful and peaceful! We also loved the rock band and spent the bad weather day inside relaxing and playing rock band as a family. Something we never do so it was super fun! There was plenty of food places nearby so we took advantage of that as well as cooked breakfast in the fully stocked kitchen! Beautiful location, fully functional house we would definitely love to stay again!

This is the second time we've stayed at Shelley's place and it was just as good the second time around. While there are a lot of posted rules and guidelines around the house, they have obviously helped keep her home immaculate for guests. She communicates incredibly well and is more than accommodating to any special needs or requests. She invited my group to come up a night early due to her previous renters checking out early and offered us a check-out at any time of the day, not rushing us out at all. The pool and view are unmatched and I highly recommend this location to others. If we're in need of a rental in Sherwood again, Shelley's place will be our first choice.

Julie was a generous host. It was a peaceful place for my family to stay and easy for our local family to come for meals and visit. Every morning we had coffee on the large private deck. We sat on the deck some evenings and enjoyed the fresh air and complete lack of mosquitoes. The two full bathrooms for the five of us were essential. We booked this house to have a great place to stay-in and have local family over but it was also close to many things in Portland. The zoo and the science museum were two of them. Julie was responsive to requests and just a very kind person.

We stayed for 5 days at this cute cabin. It was a great home base to easily go find a quick hike and then come back and relax. It was a residential neighborhood, but when you were inside or out on the back deck, it felt very private. At this time of year, during the summer, you can’t really see the river from the house, but you get a view of tall, beautiful trees swaying in the breeze and a beautiful tree covered mountain. Sitting on the deck for morning coffee and evening dinner was our absolute favorite part. The afternoon hours get too hot to be out on the deck, so that was when we went for hikes, stayed inside, read, and played foozball. My boys loved having the video games to play (I took the violent ones out), the air conditioning was awesome, the kitchen was well-stocked, lots of kitchen and bath towels. King bed was so comfortable. There is a loft with 2 beds, one right by the railing, so I wouldn’t recommend having a small child up there. Fooz table was fun! Windows and sliding door could use replacing because it is hard to see out of them and door is so hard to open and close. Place was super cute and we enjoyed our stay very much.
