From its cozy, wood-paneled rooms to its prime location at the edge of Wallowa Lake State Park, this single-story home offers a classic escape to Joseph and the Wallowas. This is a place to spend your days hiking, fishing, riding the tramway, and taking in the dramatic beauty of the Eagle Cap Wilderness Area.
This home enjoys a wonderful setting on the south side of Wallowa Lake, a six-mile drive from the small, scenic town of Joseph. Within half a mile or so, you'll find the Wallowa Lake Tramway up to the top of 8,200-foot Mt. Howard, the Wallowa Lake Trailhead, and the beloved state park with its swimming beach, great fishing spots, and picnic areas. Ferguson Ridge Ski Area is only 16 miles east as well.
Greet sunny mornings outside on the spacious front deck, the perfect spot to sip a cup of coffee with a view of the surrounding mountains. The outdoor spaces are equally lovely after a day of adventure, whether you're barbecuing on the gas grill, sipping cold drinks at one of the outdoor dining tables, or watching your kids play in the backyard and on the play structure.
Head inside with ease, thanks to front and rear entrance ramps, and make yourself at home in the open living space. Curl up by the wood-burning fireplace, set up a board game with a movie playing in the background, or get started on dinner in the kitchen. Feel free to use the office space, which includes a small desk, business chair, and additional lighting, to catch up on some remote work. The provided high-speed internet ensures you'll get things done in no time. A private washer/dryer is also on hand for your convenience.

Great location!
This is a cute little home with lots of character in a great location—walking distance to all the activities our family was excited about during our stay (horseback riding, mini golf, the tram, lake swimming and more!). Stocked kitchen for easy cooking and grilling, a Roku TV (so we could watch the Olympics!), comfy beds, a quiet road and a nice deck to hang out with the many neighborhood deer. ;) We had a lovely week of summer fun!

Good location ~ VERY in need of repairs!!
Great location. These are the VERY needed repairs!:
Door handle to the entry door loose and fell off the first day. Screen door handle to front door broken off and does not work. Upper shower head not working ~ only one working shoots straight out. Propane ran out on gas grill after 2 days. Bathroom exhaust fan clogged with dust. Deck rotting and deck gates are non-functional. Open hole in side of house, with dry rot ~ bugs going in and out of hole. Several electrical outlets not working. Handrail on deck ramp (frayed rope) very unsafe! Handrail on back yard ramp very loose and unsafe! Dishwasher connection leaking water.

Joseph House
Thank you so much for sharing this home and allowing 2 dogs on the property. The house was very comfortable and the location was perfect for my nose work competition in Joseph. Being so close to the Wallowa State Park was perfect for an evening walk. We especially enjoyed the utility room area for the dogs. Nice to have a separate area for feeding and cleaning off the dogs after my trial and hiking trails. The house was cool and had plenty of amenities to make our stay feel like a 2nd home. Thank you, M
