Family-friendly vacation rentals in Salem

Absolutely beautiful location and friendly & kind hosts! We had everything we needed & more. We truly felt like we were staying with family! The space was perfect for our family of four, and the hot tub was a great bonus after a day of hiking & sightseeing in the area. The location was serene and quiet and perfectly located for the activities we had planned.

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

We have been looking at this place for years never realized you could stay here ! It was amazing we loved every second of it !

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!

After staying back in 2021, this second visit felt like coming home (if home had windows that looked out in the the forest canopy and everything neat and tidy.) I just love the the view, the space itself, the trails, and above all the quiet! Susan is a responsive, friendly host who also feels to me like a guardian of the privacy.

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!

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!

We stayed here long-term while house-hunting and had the most amazing time. This space felt like home, the hosts were kind and very welcoming, and the neighborhood was a dream. Very walkable and historic. This ended up being our new favorite neighborhood in Portland! Thank you James for the most perfect stay. Highly recommended!

Had a wonderful stay here. Holly’s communication is wonderful. We were staying during a transition period in housing, brought all four dogs and a cat. We were able to store our camper trailer on the property. The sky is absolutely amazing to see out there, very peaceful, chickens roam, plenty of space to explore and relax. Absolutely will recommend to others!

A repeat visitor and it was the peaceful respite I look forward to when visiting Portland. Proximity to the city with a quiet and dream of a location for tranquility. Thank you Shaun for the warm welcome.

What a truly beautiful space. Artwork and cozy places are everywhere. I regret that we had to spend so much time away from the property for the conference we attended. This place is really great for groups looking to enjoy a peaceful space to hangout and enjoy the deer, greenery, frog song, with your own mini art gallery. Babette was so sweet to welcome us so warmly. Hopefully, we can end up in Philomath again and really get some quality time in here.

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

Very beautiful peaceful place to stay. Loved being able to walk our dogs around the property.

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.

From my 16 year old: “I think it was really good. She was very nice and responsive. The room was very clean and was nice and cozy and comfortable. And yeah, the dogs are really cute!” I’d like to add that the private entrance with secured gate was great.

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

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 very pleasant stay here! The house was beautiful and spacious, the beds were comfortable, and the amenities fit all of our needs. The host was friendly and responsive and I can’t rate this stay highly enough.

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.

Our stay was absolutely perfect! We were in the area for a wedding, it was a great remote location, clean, peaceful and serene. There was nothing missing that you might need. The water bottles, fruit and snack basket came in handy late at night when we arrived, too late to go back out for a quick bite. LeeAnne was incredibly kind, made sure we had the room we wanted and offered us muffins and yogurt for breakfast. She was quick to respond and made sure we had everything we needed! We would definitely stay again and would recommend it to anyone else in the area.

Wonderfully fun to stay in a time capsule! I was so impressed with how clean and well kept the trailers were. Felt like mint condition!

This was an amazing treehouse! The property is super awesome, peaceful, beautiful, incredibly relaxing! They were such sweet hosts as it was our anniversary and we came from a perimeter walk to a nice surprise! Very thoughtful host! I highly recommend staying here! Thank you both!! 😊
