Reserved parking for 1 car right outside your front door!

You will have one assigned parking spot directly next to the condo (10 feet away) and a second spot is available (it is a compact spot that requires you to coordinate parking both cars as it overlaps partially with your main spot.

Over 1000 SF! Sunny and bright two bedrooms, large bathroom, full kitchen, large living room, creekside condo just blocks from downtown Salem. Wonderful view of historic Mill Creek and large balcony overlooking the creek. Reserved parking . Three blocks from Salem Center Mall, five blocks from State Capital and six from Willamette University. This is in an apartment building, it is on the first floor so you will have a neighbor above and to the side of you. You will hear other people which is part of life when sharing walls. If that is not something you want please look for a home that would better suit you. Thanks for understanding!

With the creek view, you feel like you are camping but with the convenience of being in the City Center.

This is a mid century modern building that was built in the 1964, it is VERY well maintained and well built with unique stone aggregate siding. It is not a new building but it is well built with large units and an amazing location right on the creek. All units have been updated, but please be aware of the age of the building as some people have commented it was older. It has a lot of character that you do not get in a modern building.

You are in the downtown area and though it is very safe (the new police station is being built only 4 blocks away), this is a metro area and there are two homeless support facilities in the downtown area so you will see the people they support. We have never had any issues or any of our guests, but it is a part of life in many cities and you should be aware of it, if this will be a concern for you we recommend you look for a property outside of the downtown area.

We have a SMART Roku TV and high speed internet. The TV has apps on it for all popular streaming services that you can use your account with (Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, You Tube Premium) as well as many free apps for different types of TV. We try to keep costs down by cutting cable so normal broadcast TV is not available.

During the summer the unit has an AC installed. We take it out for fall and winter but there are box fans if you get too warm (unlikely in OR as it is usually VERY mild). The AC is in the main bedroom and it will cool the unit, please use the box fans to move the air through the unit. Most guests find this is sufficient, however if you require it to be constantly under 72 degrees we recommend looking for another property with central AC.

You are 6 blocks (10 minutes) from the state capital and if you go up 1 block (east) to Historic Cottage street you will walk buy many historic homes and then into the Capital gardens which is my favorite way to approach the capital building. You are 5-6 blocks from Macys and Salem Center mall which is the northers end of the old downtown with lots of shops and restaurants. You can also walk a bit further west and go to the park and carousel along the Willammette River, take the pedestrian bridge over to Minto Island park or a favorite of mine is to take the old railroad trestle (NOW a pedestrian walkway) over the river to the park on the other side which is a short walk to a great Grocery store (Roths Fresh Market) with a awesome Deli and salad bar and KILLER local wine selection. Also in that shopping center is a starbucks so it makes for a nice walk!

We were there to help move our daughter into college and it was a good location and was a really nice place to stay. Sitting on the balcony and hearing the water and watching the ducks was a very nice addition.

Take a second look. When we first arrived at this property, we felt concerned. The building is old, it is near a medical office for indigent patients and the first thing we heard was the train. Fortunately, when we settled in none of that mattered. The condo itself was quiet. Sitting on the back porch was delightful, listening to the creek and enjoying a drink. The location was ideal for walking to a highly rated Mexican restaurant, a wonderful coffee house and the farmer's market. The boys enjoyed the evening at an axe throwing business around the corner. The condo itself was clean, but definitely older. The experience was overall good.

The property location is less than desirable but the unit itself was very nice. A lot of homeless people frequent the area. It was pet friendly but there was not very many close areas for pets to go. Overall we enjoyed the stay.

This was our second stay with the owner. No issues at all. Generally walking distance to downtown and most amenities. Will certainly stay again if we’re in town.

Loved the creek side location. My mom kept her window open all night to listen to the water, and we enjoyed tea on the balcony in the morning. We had an issue with the condo when we checked in, but the landlord was very responsive and addressed the problem quickly.

My friend and I stayed at this cute and clean condo for 4 nights and found it to be well appointed, clean and with a wonderful view of the creek from the balcony. It was so nice to have the sound of water at any time. The beds were very comfortable. Amanda was detailed in her instructions and the property is wonderful and easy to get to. Would definitely stay again.
