This wonderfully comfortable lakeside house offers guests all the comforts of home. The living room, dining room, and kitchen all share an open floor plan and guests can sit in any one of these areas to enjoy a view of Wallowa Lake. The large primary bedroom has a sliding glass door that opens up onto the deck overlooking Wallowa Lake. You'll love soaking in the private hot tub off of the main bedroom. The two queen bedrooms are on the other side of the house along with another full bathroom.

The full kitchen is equipped with everything you need to prepare your favorite meals and includes a view of Wallowa Lake. The breakfast bar and dining table provide plenty of comfortable seating for your guests. The living room has large picture windows that overlook Wallowa Lake, plus a gas stove and a large TV for movie nights with the gang. The long deck spans the front of the house and includes stairway access to the seasonal dock. It really is the perfect place to enjoy your days at Wallowa Lake! You'll love relaxing in the saltwater hot tub under a canopy of starlight.

THINGS TO KNOW
Seasonal private docks are typically placed for Memorial Day thru Labor Day. These are placed and pulled by a 3rd party and several variables come into play such as lake levels, snow and company availability. We do our best, but these items are non refundable items if a problem occurs with their timing of putting in the water and pulling from the water.
Seasonal bbqs are available from Memorial Day thru Labor Day. BBQs are propane and tanks are provided. We strongly encourage you to review your tank level in the morning and if a replacement is needed please reach out to your local contact for a tank replacement.
Seasonal summer use of the bunkroom can be added to your stay at no additional cost. Please reach out to your local host upon arrival for more information on how to access the bunkroom during the months of June, July, August, and September.
Please note: guests have commented that showers in this home may appear smaller than average.

This Vacasa Guestworks vacation rental is operated and managed locally by an independent host.

Prior to your arrival, you will receive local host contact information, who will manage your guest reservation. Your local host will provide in-stay support, secure entry, and arrange pre- and post-stay housekeeping services.

If you need anything during your stay, the home’s independent local host is ready to help 24/7! Guestworks is a service offering of Vacasa that allows homeowners to smoothly and efficiently manage their own properties.


Parking notes: There is free parking available for 2 vehicles.

Dock details: * seasonal
Docks are seasonal which means access to the lake from some lakefront homes is seasonal too. If the dock is not in the water we urge you to not try and access the lake from the home and by doing so will be at your own risk.



Damage waiver: The total cost of your reservation for this Property includes a nightly damage waiver fee, plus tax if applicable (the “Damage Waiver”). (A discount may be applied for stays of 28 nights or longer, if permitted.) The Damage Waiver covers you for up to $3,000 of accidental damage to the Property or its contents (such as furniture, fixtures, and appliances) as long as you report the incident to the host prior to checking out. The Damage Waiver fee eliminates the need for a traditional security deposit.
More information can be downloaded from the "Rental Agreement" on the checkout page.

Due to local laws or HOA requirements, guests must be at least 21 years of age to book. Guests under 21 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian for the duration of the reservation.

Great Fall Stay
Excellent stay at our favorite vacation community - Joseph! Place was great. Very comfortable living room, bedrooms and well-equipped kitchen. Very nice views and access to the lake. The place is below the road elevation and very quiet. Host was exceptional in responding to a couple items we had. Definitely would stay again!

Nice Lake House
Had a great 3 night stay at this house on Lake Wallowa. It had just the right blend of rustic and modern. The kitchen is very well appointed - had everything we needed. Beds were clean and comfortable enough that everyone slept well. We docked our boat on the beautiful private dock great for fishing and swimming, and used the BBQ for grilling. What a nice summer vacation spot!

Dreamy oasis
My husband and another couple stayed at this wonderful home on Memorial Day weekend. It was such a peaceful getaway and the retreat we were looking for. The beds are comfortable, kitchen was well appointed, the deck and access to the lake was amazing. Even though it wasn’t warm enough to get in the lake we enjoyed the dock and fishing with spectacular views. We cooked in the house throughout the weekend and have had everything we needed. The water heater is noisy in the primary bedroom but that didn’t stop us from loving the house and our stay. We would absolutely stay here again. Being on the lake we were just a few minute drive to downtown or the hiking trails. Very peaceful stay!

Spacious and well keep cabin
We loved our stay in this cabin. The views to the lake and mountains are spectacular. Rooms are spacious and there’s plenty of board/cards games for the family to enjoy. The hot tub was a great deal to have available during our stay, we used it every night. The only negative thing about the property is the sizes of the showers, there are on the small size. Besides that everything else was shown in pictures. Beautiful place to stay. We would stay here again.

Stay in the Winter
The hot tub was great and the area is beautiful and quiet in the winter. As everyone else said, the showers are very small. I am 5'1" and 125 pounds and I had a gard time showering. The dock was down because of the winter but we were still able to go down to the water and look at the wildlife. I loved the gates to the water and the hot tub so littles dont get into water. Great place to stay.

Not worth the money.
We really wanted to love this cabin but there were alot of things that were hard to ignore. The internet on the smart tv kept stalling daily… internet issue. So many of the doors throughout the house are not level so they’re hard to open/hard to close. Biggest complaint was the noise. We are a family of 5 and none of us got good rest during our 4 night stay… Inside of the master bedroom is the tankless water heater that is only behind a curtain. Which is right next to the bed… Anytime anyone uses any running water it makes such loud noises. So in the middle of the night, when someone uses the restroom and washes their hands it would wake us up. It sounds like a leaf blower, impossible to ignore. The scenic lake view is beautiful. But in our opinion it was NOT worth what we paid…

Lake front charmer
Cute 'cottage' on the lake. Great deck and dock to enjoy the view and water. Layout of the house works well and the kitchen with second refrigerator (outside) has what you need for your stay. We did not utilize the hot tub but it looks clean and inviting. Enjoy this rental as we certainly did!

Hot tub
Little disappointed the hot tub was serviced on the day before we left so we couldn’t use it on our last night. Other than that, we had a great time in a very nice vacation home.

Professional and Detailed Service
Requested and was granted a 3pm arrival. Great floor plan, very up to date appliances and televisions (large screens in living and master). A serious array of kitchen utensils and bathroom products like I've never seen before. I was contacted by an actual person (Cindi), prior to our arrival, giving me detailed check in instructions. Driveway was cleared of snow just prior to our arrival, thank you. Excellent views of the lake. Will stay here again.
