Nana's House at the Lake
Escape to the beauty of Northeast Oregon at this peaceful riverfront retreat near Joseph, just minutes from the stunning Wallowa Lake and the breathtaking Wallowa Mountains. Nestled along a quiet stretch of River Road, this spacious home offers the perfect combination of comfort, privacy, and outdoor adventure—ideal for family vacations, couples retreats, or a relaxing mountain getaway.
Just out the back door is a small stream running through the property with a bridge that takes you to a grassy area to sit and enjoy the river with an amazing view of the Eagle Cap Mountains. Surrounded by fresh mountain air, and the sound of a rushing river you’ll be within walking distance of hiking trails, a mountain-top tramway, go carts, scenic lake views, miniature golf courses and the fun atmosphere of the Head of Wallowa Lake, considered the Alps of Oregon. A ten minute drive around the beautiful lake will take you to the charming shops, art galleries, and restaurants of downtown Joseph.

• Large open living area with cozy seating and natural light • Fully equipped kitchen for cooking and gathering • Comfortable bedrooms designed for restful nights if you open the windows you may sleep to the peaceful sound of the river • Private outdoor space perfect for enjoying the peaceful surroundings • WiFi may be intermittent due to the remote location, and cell service is often very poor • Washer and dryer

The outdoor space is partially shared with the neighboring home, which is also a short-term rental. There is no fence separating the properties, and the designated yard area for this home is limited to a small section closest to the house (approximately 6 feet out). We kindly ask guests to be respectful of the neighboring property and avoid using their yard space.
A beautiful river runs near the property, creating a relaxing and natural backdrop to your stay. The home also features a small deck to take in the surroundings, though it is not equipped with a railing. For safety, we recommend close supervision of children at all times.
