Short-Term vs. Conventional Leases

Which one fits your lifestyle at Gordon Lofts?

Life doesn’t always fit neatly into a one-year lease and at Gordon Lofts, it doesn’t have to. Whether you’re relocating to Eugene for work, testing out the city before putting down roots or simply craving flexibility, our community offers both furnished short-term leases and unfurnished long-term homes — each designed to match the rhythm of your life.


The Short-Term Stay:

Flexibility Meets Convenience

For those who need a place that feels like home without the long-term commitment, Gordon Lofts’ furnished short-term apartments make it easy.


Each residence comes thoughtfully equipped: furniture, décor, kitchen essentials and modern conveniences already in place, so you can focus on living, not moving boxes.


Ideal for:

• Professionals on business assignments or extended projects in Eugene

• Relocators exploring the city before buying or signing a long-term lease

• Academics, visiting faculty or travel nurses seeking housing

• Those who simply want a turn-key urban experience near everything


Top perks:
