ADU Builder Serving Myrtle Creek, OR

Thinking about an ADU in Myrtle Creek? A backyard ADU adds rental income, room for family, and lasting property value — and Red Umbrella has been building garages, ADUs, and additions across Douglas County since 1969. Myrtle Creek’s South Umpqua River frontage is gorgeous but puts riparian setbacks in play — we site garages and ADUs to stay clear of those buffers while still making the most of the river views.

Building an ADU in Myrtle Creek

Myrtle Creek sits 93 mi south of Eugene via I-5. Follows a river corridor, so floodplain mapping and riparian setbacks are real factors we plan around from day one. Building permits here go through City of Myrtle Creek — a process we know well — and for an ADU, that shapes how utilities connect and whether a detached cottage or an attached unit fits best.

Locally, Myrtle Creek is known for South Umpqua River, Scott-Applegate Trail remnant, shortest covered bridge in Oregon, pioneer grist-mill site, and we tailor every build to fit the lot, the neighborhood, and how you actually live.
