Family-owned assisted living in SE Portland, Oregon (97216), serving families since 1989. A small, 36-resident home with a full-time RN and person-centered care from independent living all the way through end of life.
Family-owned and serving Portland since 1989, Cherry Blossom Cottage is a small, 36-resident residential care home — not a large institutional facility. Your loved one gets individual attention, consistent staff, and clinical support that grows with their needs.
A registered nurse is on staff full-time, monitoring each resident's health and coordinating with families, physicians, and visiting home-health providers.
We care for residents across the full journey — including hospice support — so many families avoid another stressful move as care needs change.
With just 36 residents, we offer familiar faces, consistent routines, and staff who genuinely know each resident as an individual — not a room number.
One- and two-person transfers with transfer poles and an electric Hoyer lift, plus catheter, ostomy, and oxygen services — care many small homes can't provide.
Three home-like seasonal meals served every day, with eating assistance and simple food modifications as needed — plus planned activities and entertainment.
We welcome family visits and coordinate openly with home-health agencies for OT, PT, and wound care. Your loved one's wellbeing is a true partnership.
Every resident at Cherry Blossom Cottage is somebody's mother, somebody's father — and that's how we care for them.
Cherry Blossom Cottage is a family-owned residential care home that has served Portland families since 1989. Owner Rebecca Meadowcroft and our team keep the home small on purpose, so care stays personal and every resident is truly known.
It's why families weighing several options so often tell us the same thing: this one simply felt like home.

Cherry Blossom Cottage is a private-pay residential care home. Call 503-256-9777 to talk through your loved one's specific needs.
We care for older adults who need anywhere from a little help to full support — including those whose needs are increasing. Families most often reach out at one of these moments:
A loved one is being discharged from a hospital, rehab, or skilled-nursing stay and can't safely go back home without ongoing assistance.
A resident has to leave an assisted living facility because their care needs have grown beyond what that setting can provide.
Two-person transfers with an electric Hoyer lift, catheter or ostomy care, oxygen services — supported by a full-time RN on staff.
Families who want their loved one cared for through end of life, with hospice support, in a familiar home rather than moving again.
