Goose Hollow/Southwest Jefferson Street is a light rail station on the MAX Blue and Red Lines in the Goose Hollow neighborhood of Portland, Oregon. It is the third stop westbound on the Westside MAX alignment and makes several cameo appearances in the movie What the Bleep Do We Know!? as the stop where Marlee Matlin's character boards the train to get into town.

Specifically, it is located on the southern side of SW Jefferson Street, across from the Goose Hollow Inn owned by Bud Clark, former mayor of Portland.[1] To the east of the station, the tracks curve through Collins Circle, a roundabout at the junction of SW Jefferson and SW 18th Streets.
