Apartment in Milwaukie, OR
Reasons to book
About this apartment rental
Seven miles south of Portland, Milwaukie doesn't get nearly enough credit — and guests who find this townhome tend to figure that out fast. You're close enough to the city to spend a day in the Pearl District or catch a show, but the pace here is different. There's a creek on the property. There are food trucks. There's a deck made for evenings that don't end on schedule. If your version of a good trip involves a little outdoor time, a real kitchen, and a neighborhood that feels lived-in rather than touristy, this is a strong fit.
The Space
This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom townhome sleeps up to eight guests across three bedrooms and a living room sleeper sofa, with an additional twin air mattress available if needed. The layout works well for families, groups of friends, or multi-generational travel — and one bedroom and one full bathroom are located on the first floor, which helps if stairs are a consideration. There's one step at the entry.
The living area is set up for actual relaxation: Smart TV, mood lighting throughout the home, and enough seating to get everyone in the same room. The kitchen is genuinely equipped — full stove and oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, crockpot, and a De'Longhi espresso machine with a custom tea kettle for the mornings when coffee is the whole plan. The dining table and breakfast bar handle meals whether you're feeding two or eight.
Both bathrooms are well-appointed. The primary bath features a walk-in shower with jets, a built-in seat, and a handheld showerhead — a detail that earns its keep after a day of activity. The second bath has a shower/tub combo.

Outside
The furnished deck is the natural gathering spot — beverage table, seating, and a gas grill that makes outdoor dinners easy. The backyard is fenced and shared with the on-site tenant, who lives in a completely separate unit. The creek runs through the property and offers genuine on-site fishing access, which is a rare find in a vacation rental. Note that the creek area is secured with an electric fence used to contain the owner's goats — this area is not recommended for young children, and pets should be kept clear of the fence.
Guests are welcome to bring dogs (pet fee applies, paid prior to arrival).
The Neighborhood
The property sits near Kellogg Creek, which flows into the Willamette River — a natural corridor that connects the neighborhood to some of Milwaukie's best outdoor access. Milwaukie Bay Park is a short drive for summer swimming and waterfront time. Downtown Milwaukie's food truck scene and local eateries are close by for easy meals out. Portland's core — the Pearl District, Powell's Books, the Hawthorne District — is about 7 miles north and reachable by car or public transit.
A Few Things to Know
A tenant lives on-site in a separate, self-contained unit and may be present during your stay. The backyard is shared. Quiet hours are observed from 10:00 PM to 7:00 AM. A shared washer and dryer are available on the property. The garage is not available for guest use. Three off-street parking spaces are included. One exterior security camera faces the front entryway — it is outward-facing, records video and audio when motion-activated, and does not capture any interior spaces.
