The Backcountry Bungalow is a wonderful romantic retreat or escape for your small family. The cute knotty pine interior takes you back in time, providing a sweet, rustic, cabin-in-the-woods feel.
Relax and unwind with plenty of living room seating and a dining table that sits in front of a glass sliding door that frames your fenced backyard. In that lovely outdoor space, you'll have a Trex-type deck with a built-in picnic table and a seasonal grill for afternoon barbecues. Luckily, the yard backs up to a vacant natural area with lots of natural grasses and trees, making you feel a little more removed from the activities on the resort side of Wallowa Lake.
Through the living room is a galley-like kitchen with just enough space to comfortably prepare meals and another door that opens to the backyard. At night, you'll find that the bedroom has an adjoining bathroom (with a shower stall only).
While the home does not have air conditioning, two box fans are provided to keep you cool and comfortable during your stay.
This sweet little cabin is the perfect place for your couple's retreat, your small family vacation, or an opportunity to get away from it all!

This place was a perfect little getaway cabin for wintertime! The bed was very comfortable, the shower was actually very nice and the kitchen had all the amenities we needed for good breakfasts. The VHS player with all the movies was a huge hit with my husband, felt so nostalgic! Being able to bring our dogs along with us was also nice, we appreciated the fenced yard! It is a very rustic, comfortable, older cabin - if you want the cozy feels in the wintertime like we were going for, this is the place!
The cabin was initially pretty cold, but once everything got to temperature, it stayed very cozy. Having a company oversee the rental did make it feel less personal, would like to have clearer check-out information in the cabin rather than having to rely on text and or the app from the company. Overall it was a quiet and restful getaway.

Great bungalow
We loved the cozy and charming bungalow. We would definitely stay again!
Cabin was very cute and well appointed with every thing a small family would need. Heat and water pressure were great, tons of beauty in the area to soak in and enjoy.
It was a perfect quiet woodsey getaway within walking distance to everything you could want. The fenced yard was great for our cockapoo.! We’ll definitely stay there again!

Perfect Location!
Cute little rustic cabin in the heart of the alpine area at Wallowa Lake. Walking distance to the lake and tram. Our dog enjoyed the fenced backyard for short breaks.
Very comfortable furnishings and slept good. We had to wash a few dishes that were sticky but otherwise had everything we needed to make meals and relax.

Cozy cabin near the lake
We have stayed at this cabin several times and it is always very clean, quiet and cozy. It has a fenced backyard area which has been nice when we’ve brought our dog with us. The kitchen is well-equipped with everything we could possibly need, and more. I can’t wait to return!
Cozy little cabin, close to everything! You can walk to the tram, lake, and the lodge. It was small but two adults fit on the pull out and two in the bedroom just fine. The grill was a great bonus and all the deer in the backyard.
