Million Dollar River View: spacious, light-filled top floor corner unit downtown
About this condo rental
Nestled in Portland, this lovely condo for $138 per night is a great option for your next vacation. Centrally located downtown overlooking the lively Riverplace Esplanade with lots of restaurants and boutiques right downstairs. We are making our second home available to you for that truly special extended stay. The first thing you'll notice in this top floor corner unit is the light filling the rooms from the large East-facing windows. Next, you'll be greeted with a 180 degree view up and down the river where you can see SIX of Portland's famous bridges through the big windows in the living, dining and bedrooms. Only then will you notice the tasteful, elegant contemporary furnishings and the peaceful, relaxing ambiance. But it's really all about the view. In the morning, make coffee in the well-equipped kitchen and enjoy it on the balcony overlooking the river or go out to one of the 3 cafes that are less than a block away. In the afternoon, sip a glass of wine on the deck and watch the dragon boats on the river below. Relax in the deep chaise and read a book or just enjoy the view of the bridges and the East Side. In the evening, go to one of the many restaurants, wine bars or pubs that are all within a block or two of your front door. Or just stay in and watch the game on the big screen TV. Sleeps up to 4 (the couch converts into a surprisingly comfortable queen-sized bed), an open, spacious-feeling 845 sq. ft. with Berber carpets throughout. One designated parking space is included, located in the secure garage below the unit (additional paid parking is available if you need it in one of the public garages nearby). The parking space is conveniently located right next to the elevator. The bedroom features a king size bed with Italian linens and blackout blinds if you choose to sleep in. There is plenty of storage available in the large walk-in closet. The big East-facing windows allow you to sit in bed and look out over the river. The Italian marble full kitchen is equipped with a dinnerware service for 8, a set of pots & pans, toaster, coffee pot, press pot, electric kettle, rice cooker, waffle iron, microwave, fridge, dishwasher & ceramic top stove. The dining room seats four with its own large window looking down the river, taking in the bridges and East side. The living room has the most impressive view of all. The bathroom features a spacious shower with two separate shower heads, one at each end. The Italian marble topped vanity is equipped with two sinks and large mirrors. There are a full-sized washer and dryer in the separate laundry closet. High speed internet >=100mbps standard (up to 600mbps available for extra charge) Access to your streaming services via Roku Printer and scanner Restaurants and more are right outside your door with easy access to OHSU, PSU, Keller Auditorium and waterfront parks, all within 5 blocks. Convenient to the Portland Streetcar (3 blocks away). Children are welcome, but there is a deck and large windows that open fairly wide - use your judgment. No pets (really). 31 night minimum. Why? The City of Portland classifies any stay of less than 31 nights as a ‘short term’ rental and requires that guests pay an additional 12.5% lodging tax and requires that owners have a special permit. HomeAway/VRBO automatically collects these taxes on all stays of less than 31 nights. For stays of 31 nights or longer there is no tax. The HOA and the City both require that we complete lease paperwork covering your stay. Other nearby services: - 24 Hour Fitness, OHSU Wellness & Fitness Center - Biketown bicycle rental station - Farmer's market: South Waterfront on Thursdays (in season) - Jogging, biking & walking path right out front Events within walking distance: All Year Portland Farmers Market at PSU The Portland Saturday Market Waterfront Park February Portland International Film Festival Waterfront Park Portland Jazz Festival Waterfront Park May Cinco de Mayo Waterfront Park Rock n' Roll Marathon Waterfront Park Rose Festival City Fair Waterfront Park Festival of Flowers Pioneer Courthouse Square June Starlight Parade Downtown Dragon Boat Races Right outside Cider Summit Caruthers Park (OHSU tram) July 4th of July Fireworks THE BEST VIEW IN THE CITY IS RIGHT OUTSIDE YOUR WINDOW Waterfront Blues Festival Waterfront Park Sand in the City (sand castle competition) Pioneer Square Oregon Brewer's Festival Waterfront Park August Bite of Oregon Waterfront Park September Dragon Boat Races October Portland Marathon Waterfront Park finish line December Christmas Ship Parade View from the balcony

This condo is a perfect place to stay while visitIng Portland. It is centrally and conveniently located with great access to downtown and many restaurants and shops. The condo is clean and very well appointed with everything you’ll need for a great visit. The owners are very responsive to your requests and it’s easy to communicate with them. The best part is the view. Being on the river is an ever changing pallet of color and activity, day and night. Many thanks to Paul and Jenn

If you are looking to relax and unwind, this is the place for you. Almost every day, I found myself sitting and just gazing out the window overlooking the river and marina and feeling instant calm. The unit had everything we needed for our month long stay and I enjoyed having the riverfront walkway just outside our door. We took advantage of the cafes and restaurants there as well. The owners, Paul & Jennifer, checked in a couple of times to make sure we had everything we needed.

The condo is in a great location & the window views are fantastic
The condo location is great. It is a quick walk to downtown or a block to the freeway. The view from the condo is absolutely fantastic. There are great shops and restaurants on the river walkway. We would lease it again.

Slice of Portland Heaven
From the very start, our trip to the NW was made perfect in every way. This property was exactly the way it looks, with thoughtful details, high quality linens, comfortable beds and the most breathtaking views at all hours of the day! The communication with the property owner was the best I’ve ever had. He was quick to respond on any matter. It was such a peaceful place to wake up in everyday. The location is ideal—close to shops, walking, parks and amazing restaurants. As my son noted in the guest book, “it’s not IF, it’s WHEN, we return!” Can’t be soon enough!! Thank you for every last detail and sharing your beautiful property!! See you again soon!!

Perfect Portland Getaway
We spent the month of July 2019 at this property. In one word it was awesome. Spectacular views of the Wilamette River and the bridges connecting the west and east sides of the city. We only had a car for the first two days of our stay and got around by bike, walking and the occasional Lyft or Uber. Very convenient location. We have already booked again for next summer (2020). Highly recommend. Property owner is very responsive and handled all our questions and inquiries within a matter of minutes.

Waterfront escape
Bright, clean, beautiful view on the waterfront. Fun to walk the promenade, watch the dragon boats, or have coffee/glass of wine on the balcony. The owner keeps everything pristine, provides all household supplies you need. Very pleasant stay.

PDX Perfection
We spent two enjoyable months here in Portland. From the minute we walked in and saw the expansive views of the Willamette and the marina below, we knew it was the perfect place. The location is second to none. We were able to go to plays, concerts, museums, and top-rated restaurants, all within a fifteen minute or less walk. Bikes are available for rent within a half block away, making it convenient for exploring the bridges and paths along the riverfront. There was a secure underground garage, and the parking space was just steps from the elevator right up to the top floor where the condo was located. The condo was stunning and perfectly representative of the pictures posted on the website. Paul was always very responsive and very accommodating. We happily recommend this place for anyone looking to experience the best of Portland.

Wonderful home away from home!
Thank you for this clean and bright condo on the riverfront!. Location is everything. We loved the view, morning, noon and night. The convenience of the shops below made for a neighborhood feel. We had great instructions and follow up with our host. Thank you for making this trip so comfortable.

A wonderful home away from home!
We felt this place was better than expected. The included parking and in-unit laundry were huge plusses for our stay, and it's location was wonderful - close to restaurants, grocery shopping, and so many activities downtown.
The place was very clean and well maintained - and the bed was even more comfortable than our bed at home (which rarely happens in rentals). Plenty of storage in the closets, a great set-up in the living room for TV (full cable channels), a full kitchen that was easy to use for preparing meals or snacks, and a great dinning area useful for eating or setting up a computer.
Wi-Fi worked terrific, and we sometimes had phones, pads, and a laptop connected (not all at the same time, though).
Our host/owner/contact Paul was extremely easy to work with - very responsive to any questions before renting, during the rental, and after.
We would very highly recommend this to anyone we know for a long stay in Portland, and plan to keep it in mind for some frineds who may be visiting in the coming year (although it's pretty popular, and it seems pretty well booked).
Our most fun activities for the area were walking along the river, and watching the view out the living and dining room windows at the river and the Hawthorne Bridge. Lots to see there, and very soothing.
We were having work done on our primary home in Portland, so we were definitely looking for a home away from home - and we live in Portland. This fit the bill for us perfectly.
We just can't recommend this place enough. We feel very lucky to have found it, and been able to stay there.

Excellent Apartment- Stunning view
My husband and I stayed for a month here. The apartment had everything we needed throughout our time. The living room window offered a stunning view of the river and a view of Portland's bridges. We enjoyed adventuring in the city and then coming back to cook dinner in the well stocked kitchen. Really enjoyed the convenience of the apartment to the downtown and transportation. The ice cream/breakfast place below the apartment on the riverwalk is a must try!

Healing views and comfortable, efficient dwelling!
We stayed in this property from March 22- June 3. My husband needed a place to recover from a serious procedure that would put us within easy distance to OHSU. I have to say...I thank myself over and over for choosing this property as it really contributed to his healing and a positive outcome. The views and activity along the waterfront were both soothing and engaging...that included blue herons and a resident osprey who entertained us daily.One of his favorite sights was watching the Hawthorne bridge go up and down for the bigger boats. Because of the proximity to downtown we both got out and walked early on in his recovery, riding the streetcar everywhere. Living temporarily at this location helped us uncover a Portland food scene we never new about...but more importantly the optimum way to reduce the stress of a serious medical recovery. Sandy and David

Lovely Portland Condo
It seems that photos of a property often overstate its quality. Not so in this condo's case. The views of the Willamette River and city lights at night are amazing!
My wife and I spent the months of January and February at this condo. A well appointed kitchen was very important to us and this one filled all of our needs. We were also delighted to find that we could easily walk to Safeway, Whole Foods and the PSU Farmers Market to do our grocery shopping.
Parking a car in Portland can be a challenge. So we really appreciated having a safe assigned parking space directly below the condo. But this town is so walker-friendly we were able to leave our car parked through nearly our entire stay.
Lastly, the owners made the whole rental process so easy, with timely email/phone contacts along the way.
This property will be on our short list of place to stay in Portland!

Perfection!
We spent an unforgettable month on the Portland waterfront, taking in all the events and energy that the city provides. Superb location, top floor condo, fantastic views from many angles, balcony, quiet building, great security and convenient protected parking, the AC performed well in July, close to public transportation, 20 minute walk to downtown, and restaurants and happy hours just below. Wonderful. The condo is terrific, clean, and doesn't lack for amenities. Oh yes, ask the owner where to eat in downtown and surrounding Portland, he is an expert and provides a long list of written recommendations. We're sad to leave this very unique and absorbing city but it's back to the heat, stickers, thorns, and things that snap and bite at you.

WOW!
When I first walked in my first thought was WOW! Spectacular view of the Willamette River and the Marina. The place was bright and clean. The owner was pleasant and responsive, super easy to work with. It was everything I expected.

Always a wonderful time
This was the second time we have stayed at this property. Easy access to streetcar for Portland adventures, but also a short and safe walking distance to SW Portland. With such a well equipped kitchen, we don't have to pack our own gear. Even if you are staying home, the boat traffic is exciting, there is usually lots of bridge action, there is always something going on at the marina, and lots of pedestrians 4 floors down on sunny days strolling on the promenade. The lights of the city at night are amazing. We hope to come back some day.

A Magical PDX Escape
Add us to the list of renters who have fallen in love with this magical place. I have just reread the reviews and it was like being reminded of all we enjoyed here and possibilities for the future
Kudos to the landlords for exceptionally outfitting their condo and for the perfect way they shared it with us.

Comfort and convenience with a stunning river view
This condo is an ideal blend of convenience, comfort, and vista views. It is well-stocked with any items one might need on a stay away from home. It is convenient to cook in or eat out and the owners have done a consummate job of providing suggestions/reviews for dining, entertainment and any needed sundries around town. Watching the activity on the river, even mid-winter, is delightful. Communication with the owners is friendly, prompt, and helpful. I highly recommend this location for any extended-stay visit to the Portland area.
