At the Stafford River House we have direct access to the river from our backyard where you can go swimming, fishing, kayaking, or even paddle boarding. Our house has central heating and cooling, a Nest system, to keep you comfortable for the times you want to be inside relaxing. Our home has a rustic woodsy vibe to it. Being here is more about time together, being in the woods, watching birds, using the dock and river to enjoy the natural setting. We are located on a quiet older established neighborhood.

This was a great property to stay at as a home base for day adventures both into Portland city, the coast, and Mt. Hood. While the layout is unique with one room’s access being through the bunkbed room, it worked out fine for our family with three kids, the youngest being four.

We are so Thrilled that your group enjoyed their week at our river cabin just relaxing by the river and enjoying the outdoors with family is the goal!😎🏡
The place was a great location and just what we needed for our weekend. The only thing that would have been helpful to know ahead of time was that the dock was pretty tricky to get to and the sitting area near the river was out of order. The house was great with lot of utensils and cooking supplies for the kitchen. The beds were good and we had a great weekend.

We are happy to hear you enjoyed our river cabin And that it met your groups needs
Thank You for the inform A Asian about the dock. This is the first we have heard of it. We will definitely have our Handyman look at it. We want everyone to be able to fully use the river and our amenities this summer.
Great place to stay. It has multiple places to sit outside and we used the kayaks one of our days. Rachel was extremely responsive. Six of us stayed for a week filled with a family wedding, military commissioning and college graduation. It was a perfect location for us near family on West Linn. I would recommend this house and stay again. It is on 3 levels so there are stairs to each of the bedrooms but that didn’t bother us.

WeWe are thrilled that your group enjoyed our rustic outdoor cabin. This is what we always strive for when we have visitors coming to enjoy our outdoor amenities
A wonderful location nestled in the trees with a river in the back for family fun. Cozy living room for all to hang out in. Stairs are required to get to the front door and bedrooms so if you have elderly folks with knee issues, discuss with them first.
My family and I enjoyed our stay here, we would definitely book again. The view of the river is nice. We were not too far from grocery stores or restaurants either.

We are thrilled that you enjoyed the natural beauty of our river cabin
Incredible spot to enjoy family and the river! We stayed 2 nights and had a blast. Host was fantastic. Cooked on the grill and watched the Dodgers. Lots of amenities and beautiful scenery. We are planning a return in the fall if everything aligns. Thanks again. Highly recommended. Anything less than a 10/10 review is very unfortunate for this place. One of the coolest VRBO spots we have stayed.
Excellent place for vacation ! Very quiet and wonderful view of nature

Thank you for your kind and thoughtful words.
We enjoy the peace and serenity that our river cabin in the woods can offer. Especially during the holidays
Beautiful, quiet getaway with an expansive river views and access. Just a little bit outside of Portland.The house is an updated older river home, comfortable and with an impressively large series of decks.

Liked: Check-in, communication
Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
The photos did not match what we expected. There is a lack of cleanliness as the coffee maker was moldy with old grounds, light fixture hanging from ceiling, blinds broken in bedroom, window don’t lock and toilets dirty. Recommend getting repairs, cleaning company and landscaper.

We always appreciate people who provide feedback.
Per the guidance of VRBO admin, we will not provide further review.
The Stafford River House was an amazingly unique property. We loved hour beautiful and peaceful the location was and yet it was very close to a major interstate. It was very convenient to travel to our excursions. Check-in was seamless, the home had all the amenities we needed including a reliable wi-fi connection. We enjoyed our 2-night stay very much!
Beautiful property and stay. Would highly recommend to others and stay again! Perfect size for our family and had everything we needed. One of the highlights of the trip was canoeing down the river as a family! Thanks for the memories!
Great place for our group of 6, nice proximity to Portland and stores. The view is fantastic. Host was very responsive and accommodating.
