Waterfront holiday rentals in Willamette Valley

Cannot say enough about the wonderful experience we had staying at Rivers Retreat. It truly is a magical place right next to the Washougal River where you are surrounded by nature and can hear the peaceful river below. The hosts are more than helpful and we were grateful for their recommendations. We enjoyed watching the bald eagles and relaxing by the bonfire. The indoor space was very well kept and full of amenities. We will definitely return for another stay if ever in the area.

I had a wonderful stay at Sygarry’s place. The private bedroom and bathroom provided the perfect level of comfort and privacy. The location was ideal, as it was within walking distance to downtown/PSU and had easy access to transportation options like buses, street cars, and the Max. The host was incredibly friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this Airbnb for anyone visiting Portland!

Dave’s place was clean, adorable, peaceful and quiet. We loved our stay here! It has a flight of stairs so if you have mobility issues, it wouldn’t be a good choice. We didn’t use the kitchenette but it was clean and nicely stocked. The bathroom shower was lovely and was well stocked with towels, etc. The bed was comfy with the softest, warmest bedding. We’d go back in a heartbeat! The setting is surrounded by trees and the lake. It’s a great get-away, and so peaceful. Loved it!

I had a fabulous stay at Therese’s place! It was incredibly peaceful and calm, with stunning views of the river right from the bedroom — such a perfect way to start the day. Therese was so friendly and kind, and as it was my first time visiting Portland, she went above and beyond by recommending lots of great things to do and see. She even brought us our favorite breakfast items to enjoy— such a thoughtful touch! I would definitely stay here again anytime I visit Portland. Highly recommend!

Our stay was lovely! So many thoughtful touches, such a lovely space. Would be great for use as a base for winter fun on the mountain or summer by the river. 10/10 no notes!

Best experiance ever for an Airbnb!!! 5 stars is not enough. i am already making plans to come back again. The property is beautiful, the inside is perfection, and felt like a retreat the moment we stepped out of the car. we felt spoiled and enjoyed every moment we were there. the only downside was having to leave. the bar is now set so high for anywhere else we go its going to be almost impossible to match this stay. I will be back again soon for sure...

We stayed for a week and loved it! The river was in walking distance and the downtown area was beautiful (we visited the soda shop multiple times). The space itself was perfect for the two of us. It was clean and the duckies in the pond were one of our favorite things. Additionally, any time we had issues the host responded almost instantly. We thoroughly enjoyed our nice, quiet stay.

This two bed, one bath ADU is lovely. The private deck looks out on the water. There is a shared pier with chairs. We sat there and watched the Bald Eagles. The place is very quiet and private. The hosts are friendly and accommodating. I would return to this place in a heartbeat!

This stay was everything we needed. It was peaceful, relaxing, clean, beautiful, and gorgeous! The river front property allows you to hear the river with the windows open for relaxing white noise at all times. The landscape was beautiful and the house was so comfortable. Allison was kind and left very clear instructions. She was also quick to respond and help us out when we needed it! HIGHLY recommend!

Great house that probably functions as a ski lease. Comfy beds, amazing location for journeys around Mt. Hood. River in the back is beautiful, nice porch, and cozy living room. Only main issues were some elements of the house manual missing (instructions for window coverings), window controller seemed not to work, and lighting is a little low in the lower bedrooms. Otherwise pretty clean, great amenities. Note no phone service in the area but there's a landlines and some slower internet if you need it.

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!

This home is one of my top places I have stayed in on Airbnb. I walked into that home and out to the back door absolutely breathtaking views. This home is 3 adventures in one. 1st the deck BBQ, fire pit and Hot tub(wood is provided). 2nd the yard below the home, has a huge open grass area with a big fire pit, close to the river. 3rd the river great spot for chairs and family private. Very lucky it was hot outside, we got to go swimming 3 times. The house was super clean 5 stars. This home had all the things and more needed to cook in the kitchen mama was stocked up. Book this home and enjoy being unplugged from the world, I flet like I was at grown up camp. Thank you for the treats and birthday candle 🕯 💕

This was the perfect location for our stay during our son’s wedding weekend at Horning’s Hideout. We hosted a family brunch and the house was the perfect setting with everything we needed and more. Our guests loved the setting and felt right at home. We are grateful for our time at the house in North Plains and would not hesitate to visit again.

This house worked great for us and the family adventures we had planned for the week. The property is beautiful and sitting by the Abiquia having a cup of coffee in the morning was very peaceful.

I can’t even describe the beauty of this place. Falling asleep to the sound of the river was everything we needed. The windows slide and have screens so it’s perfect. The beds were comfortable, It was clean, and the house was equipped with everything we needed. We had a blast playing the Nintendo, grilling dinner on the porch, and playing in the yard. It was far enough out to be peaceful but convenient to everything we wanted to do like Multnomah Falls. I also have to mention something that probably doesn’t matter to everyone but most places you stay give you scratchy small towels. Not this place. They are equipped with plush bath sheets. It’s those details that put this place at the top of my list! We did not want to leave!!! Thank you for an excellent stay!

Place was great! Abby and Clint were very responsive and it was a relaxing, easy entry and exit!

This was a lovely condo, very homey and comfortable, spacious, and the kitchen had everything we needed to bbq and enjoy nice dinners in.

The views from this place are much more beautiful than expected. The river was absolutely gorgeous. Bonus we saw a beautiful doe walking just below the house along the riverfront. We enjoyed our morning coffee watching the massive views of the river. We even saw the USS Jack H. Lucas sail by on its way home from fleet week. 💙. Go Navy!! We would definitely stay again.

This apartment is in a great location with an great view of the River. we enjoyed sitting and watching the sailboats in the evening. The kitchen was well stocked for preparing food. Checkout was easy. We would definitely stay again.

This place was the perfect location for me. I love the proximity of the Riverwalk river walk. I also thought the little patio outside was a great place to sit and relax. I would highly recommend this as a great place to stay in Portland.

The Airbnb itself was clean, spacious, and clearly well-maintained. You can tell the host has put a lot of effort into making the space feel welcoming, and they may still be in the process of improving it even more. One of the highlights was the beautiful river right out back—a peaceful bonus that added to the overall experience. While the neighborhood felt a bit sketchy and there were quite a few transients around, it’s important to note that those issues are outside of the host’s control. Once inside, the space felt safe and comfortable. Parking could have been tricky, but the host provided clear and detailed instructions that made it easy to find. Overall, it was a solid stay with some nice touches in a developing area.

Taylor’s place was amazing! It was safe and comfortable. I would definitely book again! It’s close to everything in Portland

Thank you Michelle and Sarah for a wonderful stay! Communication was excellent from start to finish. Michelle and Sarah were so accommodating with all of our requests, and were so kind to give us suggestions/recommendations since we aren’t totally familiar with the area yet. The place was so cozy, and a great location close to restaurants and shops! We will definitely be back, and will absolutely book with Michelle and Sarah again!

Loren is a great host. I cannot recommend her enough. She is an amazing person, and the house was beautiful and spacious. She is kind and helpful. If you are visiting Portland or Oregon City, stay with Loren!
