  • Charming Wallowa Lake Cabin with Mountain Views & Walkable Lake Access

    Experience the beauty of Oregon's Eagle Cap Wilderness from this charming mountain retreat just a short walk from Wallowa Lake. Nestled in a peaceful setting with stunning views of Chief Joseph Mountain and glimpses of the lake, this inviting 3-bedroom, 2-bath cabin offers the perfect home base for family vacations, outdoor adventures, and relaxing escapes.

The open-concept living area provides a comfortable gathering space complete with cozy furnishings, a wood-burning stove insert, streaming TV, and DVD player—perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring.

    The vintage-inspired kitchen combines nostalgic charm with modern convenience, featuring unique red countertops, updated appliances, and plenty of space to prepare everything from quick breakfasts to family dinners. Adjacent to the kitchen, the dining area creates the ideal setting for shared meals and memorable conversations.

    The main floor features two comfortable bedrooms and a bathroom with a shower, while the spacious upstairs suite serves as a private retreat with a king bed, twin bed, sitting area, mountain views, and an additional bathroom with a shower.

    Step outside to the large, covered deck and take in the breathtaking scenery. Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee, grilling dinner on the gas barbecue, or simply relaxing with family and friends, the deck offers panoramic mountain views, partial lake views, and comfortable outdoor dining space. A convenient access ramp makes entry easy for guests of all ages.

    Located approximately 800 feet from Wallowa Lake, you'll enjoy easy access to boating, hiking, fishing, wildlife viewing, kayaking, paddleboarding, and the many attractions of Wallowa Lake Village. Explore nearby trails, ride the famous Wallowa Lake Tramway, discover local shops and restaurants in Joseph, or simply relax and soak in the natural beauty surrounding you.

I’ve already written this in a note but I’ll try again. I am 85 and don’t do stairs so I was grateful for the ramp. The ground floor bathroom needs a little tweaking. The grab bar by the very short toilet was no help. It needs to be forward from the toilet and verticle so you can pull yourself up. The shower was frightening since it had no grab bar. I was so afraid I was going to fall. I really appreciated the recliner. And thank you so much for the use of your mixer. As a whole my family really liked the house and enjoyed the stay.
