About this property

Riverfront cabin with large yard, great deck, & fireplace

Chimney Lake

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

You'll have a spacious front yard and a large back deck overlooking the Wallowa River at Chimney Lake, a three-bedroom home where you can let the kids run and watch the water roll by on lazy evenings.

Inside the home are two bedrooms - one with a queen and one with a king. The third bedroom has an outside entrance down one flight of stairs - a perfect space for a small family or the early birds of the group. They'll get to enjoy their own coffee bar and outdoor seating as the rest of the group wakes up.

The large, open floor plan between the kitchen and the dining room keeps everyone together for game nights, meal prep, and movie-watching on the flatscreen TV mounted above the fireplace. The entry porch is where you'll probably find the kids, as the game table is located in this attached 'sleeping porch' that opens onto the wrap-around deck.

There are three bathrooms in Chimney Lake - the first has a tiled shower/tub combination and the other has a shower stall, the washer/dryer, and the third is a half-bath in the lower king bedroom.

Great place-loved our stay. The electronic key code battery was low and we had to wait about 30 minutes to get gain access to the property when we arrived. All was well in the end but good thing for cell phones and patience!

Wonderful cabin close to all the fun

The space was perfect for our three generations of family members. The river front exceeded our expectations and we were close to all the fun. Kitchen is well equipped. We had an amazing time and look forward to coming back next year.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
We liked the river, deck, beds, fabulous downstairs bedroom, price, location to activities. The table is great for the amount of people and for playing family games. What we didn't like toilet paper, pillows up stairs, no extra blankets, sheets or towels. We have already recommended to other family members and plan to stay again. It is a great relaxing place to stay.

Great property for the price!

Wonderful property, perfect location! Getting inside took a bit as the code wouldn’t work but the manager was amazing and very quick to answer. The 3rd room was a seperate entry which wasn’t an issue since my dad was staying with us and so it gave him his own space. It’s right in the middle of all the amazing attractions at Wallowa and an easy walk

We completely enjoyed our stay here. The house was very comfortable and the deck on the river was wonderful. It was close to the state park and multiple trailheads. We would definitely stay here again.

Great place for a family retreat!

The cabin was thoughtfully appointed --especially the kitchen. It's a short walk from the go-carts, miniature golf, and hiking. Comfortable retreat for our family - Cozy setting. Thank you, we had a great stay!

Perfect Getaway

We stayed for a girls weekend. It was out of season which was perfect as it was quiet and this home was a perfect place to play games, watch movies, cook and have a drink on the deck while watching the creek flow by. The place had everything we needed. I would definitely stay here again.

Great riverside home!

Great house for our family trip! Easy check in with keypad and responsive Vacasa host. Very clean, towels folded, beds made, kitchen and bathrooms very clean upon arrival. Love the extra room/apt downstairs which allows for some privacy and quiet time. Great location to walk and support the local establishments and adventures in nature!
