Beautiful property and welcoming hosts

We had a really wonderful weekend here. Great communication with hosts and lots of good recommendations of things to check out in the area. The house was unique and cozy with enough space for eight of us. Our favorite part of the house was the yard- spent a lot of time watching the horses, sunsets, and looking at the mountains. We were conveniently close to Joseph, the lake and lots of hiking.

Wonderful stay

Brought my adult kids and their families out for 5 nights and days to explore the beautiful Wallowa area. The house and surroundings exceeded our expectations. Hosts were amazing, wildlife everywhere plus horses, goats and breathtaking views. Perfect spot for basecamp with everything to do just a short drive away.

Great property and accommodations, fit our family well as we were in the area for a wedding. 360 degree views of the spectacular Wallowas and only a mile from Joseph. Fully equipped and the owner was on hand or accessible for any questions.
