Serene Japanese Home with Breathtaking Views in Oregon — Only 15 Min to Joseph
Welcome to Zen House Kominka – A Soulful Japanese Retreat in Oregon
Discover peace at Zen House Kominka, where centuries-old Japanese tradition meets the raw beauty of northeast Oregon. This serene escape features timbers and beams reclaimed from historic Japanese farmhouses—some over 200 years old—thoughtfully preserved to celebrate timeless craftsmanship.
Nestled among panoramic mountain vistas, our home is a tranquil haven for rest and reflection. From misty mornings to golden sunsets, every moment here invites stillness and connection.
Ideally located just 10 minutes from downtown Enterprise and 15 minutes from Joseph—an artsy mountain town filled with galleries, great dining, and outdoor fun. Wallowa Lake, a sparkling gem for nature lovers, is only 20 minutes away.
Zen House Kominka is designed for adults seeking calm and inspiration. We kindly do not accommodate guests under 18.
The Space
Immerse yourself in a setting that honors simplicity, balance, and nature. Our design blends ancient Japanese aesthetics with modern comfort—ideal for mindful retreats, creative inspiration, or peaceful downtime.
Other Things to Note
While the views are vast and awe-inspiring, they’re also a gift of nature—ever-changing and weather-dependent. Regardless of the sky’s mood, Kominka remains a deeply grounding experience.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a dining table.

Kominka Paradise
We spent our honeymoon at Kominka. It was the most peaceful, relaxing and stunning way to begin our marriage. Our host was more generous and hospitable than we could have ever dreamed. The views were breathtaking and the house which smelled of wood was zen, clean and orderly. We sat for hours outside listening to the rustling breeze through the tall grass, enjoying "bird TV" in the skies overhead and watching the deer roam past. At night we gazed at the crisp stars, so close we could touch. We were very tired after wedding preparations and we will be forever thankful for this rejuvenating escape. Thank you!
