Wallowa River House

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

This beautiful Wallowa River frontage home is located at the resort side of Wallowa Lake making it a short trek to the trailhead or any of the activities like the Wallowa Lake Tramway, Vali's Restaurant, and so much more!

This beautiful custom-built home has plenty of living space. The large living room has beautiful tall windows overlooking the Wallowa River. The flatscreen TV is mounted at the ceiling, so while it is available to watch, you may just decide to watch the water roll by instead. The dining room has a convenient dining table and a propane fireplace with a glass door that opens onto the wrap-around deck that overlooks the Wallowa River. Just beyond the living and dining areas is a gorgeous kitchen with tile countertops and all the conveniences of home.

Tuck into a main-floor queen bedroom, or walk upstairs and find two additional bedrooms - one with a queen bed and the primary bedroom with a king bed, small wet bar, sitting area, and another propane stove. The upstairs bathroom features a soaking tub.

The outside living of this home is focused on being located on the Wallowa River. The wrap-around deck with a variety of seating/dining options is a highlight for many repeat guests that love to watch the Wallowa River flow by.

Also, the weather changes rapidly at this mountain location. We suggest preparing for the worst. Also, many Les Schwab Tire Centers have the ability to purchase tire chains, and if you don't use them, will take them on return.

Great stay
A pretty location by the river and a well kept, spotless house. A couple of minor maintenance issues fixed would make this a perfect stay, but it was still great and we’d happily return. Note: it was a heat wave when we stayed but the house still stayed cool thanks to the river!

Breath taking
The location of the home was next to a stream which sounded wonderful in the evening. It was in a quiet neighborhood. The home itself was beautiful and very clean. Would definitely recommend as a family getaway and would definitely stay again.

Spacious, beautiful home in a great location! This property is located in a quiet neighborhood close to parks and a two minute drive to the lake. During the day, we enjoyed exploring the Wallowa area and our evenings relaxing in the vacation home. We highly recommend this VRBO!

Great location but limited parking
This house was amazing and fit our family perfectly. Super close (walking distance) to all the fun activities. The only issue was parking was tight. It says you can fit three vehicles but we had just enough space for two.

Winter wonderland
This is an amazing house. We are local so we have been to area many times and have stayed in many different houses and we have a new favorite. It was very clean, the kitchen was well stocked for cooking all of our meals, and the decorations and furnishings were so warm and cozy. We truly loved everything about it and can’t wait to return.

3 days at the lake
The house was in a good location. The river was very nice behind the house and very nice ambience. However, getting into the house was a little bit difficult, and I had to talk to somebody that had a very strong accent from the Middle East so I could not understand the numbers. He was telling me so that I could open the door the address also was not the same at the street as it was on the house, as it was in might email from vacasa, so it was very confusing. But once we all got in and Rectified, the mishap of getting in, we had a lovely time

Quite Home with Space
This home worked well for our two families to have separate areas. However, it was not the cleanest- hide-a-bed was dirty, trash can smelt very bad, and parts of areas hadn't been swept/vacuumed well. The couch cushions kept falling off and the bathrooms are a bit small. Overall, it worked well for us, but would have loved to have it a bit nicer.

Beautiful setting - beautiful home
Custom wood work throughout home - high end details. Clearly built by an artist! Located next to roaring river with great deck and deck chairs. Light and bright with windows everywhere. Loved the community and all the amenities within walking distance. Walk to trail head, walk to tram, and long walk to historic lodge. Weather was perfect.

Peaceful Retreat in Joseph
We were lucky to visit this beautiful home in late October, which was perfect for us with fewer people and cooler temps (and just before the snow). The home is very well appointed and perfect for two couples with lots of extra space (it would've worked well for 3 couples, but we liked having our own parts of the home and not sharing bathrooms). The furniture was cozy, and while the kitchen was small, it had everything we needed. The star of the stay was how close we were to the river. Sitting on the deck or a few steps down to the river's edge was the perfect way to relax (especially after all of the hiking we did). Prior to the pandemic, Joseph was an annual retreat for us. We hope to restart the tradition, especially if the Wallowa River House is available.

Wallowa Lake House vacation
We loved this house and the location. It was perfect. The Kokanee were spawning while we were there. You could walk right down to the river and watch them. The river would lull us to sleep at night in our nice comfortable king bed. The pilot light needed to be lit when we first got there in the fireplace. A very nice gentleman came right over and got it going. Just one little note….the stairs were a bit steep for my elderly parents. They stayed downstairs in bedroom with bathroom. I just wanted to note this for people traveling with elderly parents. Thank you so much for our wonderful vacation.

Beautiful River Mountain Cabin
We loved staying in this cabin. Thank you for having a recliner. I dont sleep well in a bed so that helped me alot! We have family that lives in Joseph. It was very convenient being able to stay so close to them. We loved the views of mountain river and pine trees. It was lovely! Thank you for sharing your beautiful cabin.

Right on the river
Newer cabin very well kept and clean. Literally 10 ft from the river, which is pretty special. Well equipped kitchen and comfortable furniture. Couldn’t be much closer to the Wallowa Lake trailhead with 3 trails if you like to walk. Good experience with the management company Two things to be aware of: being in the river canyon it is dark much of the day (we found ourselves leaving the area in the evening to walk in the sun) and the neighbors are very close

Wallowa River House.....Aug 2022
Everything.....except the toilets! So LOW! Not good for anyone that has any height, or knee issues. We had to go buy a toilet riser. The Kitchen was well equipped!l Beds were comfortable. Loved the sheets! Beautiful deck setting! So peaceful by the river. This was a perfect place to kick back and relax!
