Great location in a quiet neighborhood just 3 blocks from town. With the fenced yard and deck, it was the perfect place for us and our lab. Lots of areas to walk, and very close to town.

This is a cute house remodeled with quality appliances. I love that they kept the 1940s vibe. Well done! Easy walking distance to shopping & dinning. Only a few minutes drive to the lake to swim or picnic. If you are here in the fall check out the spawning Kokanee moving from the lake up the river. They are beautiful.The backyard has a good fence so your pup can go out & not be supervised every moment.

Property was perfect for us.It was so clean and quiet, so much thought was put into it by the hosts. It had everything we needed including a huge fenced in yard that was clean and large. Close to downtown Joseph that we could walk to get some great food and shopping.Contact with the hosts was immediate and helpful! We will definitely be going back!

The cottage was comfortable and close enough to walk anywhere in town. We surprised about 10 deer in the back yard upon arrival, including a couple bucks. The Mountain views are great. Joseph is full of nice people and welcoming businesses, and the region is truly spectacular. Everything was just as the host described.

Very clean, comfortable beds! Easy access/check-in. I appreciate that they accept dogs, however, there was a surprise dog fee after I paíd, sent via a message from the owner. I wish that fee was initially disclosed. Good overall value. Super cute house, very large back yard.

We love being dog-friendly! The pet fee is openly disclosed and added to the reservation when the guest is honest about bring bringing their pup. This guest only made a reservation for herself and her husband--she self-disclosed that she brought her dog after check-in, which then triggered the pet fee to be added later than when she made the reservation.

Sweet little house

Great vacation home. Super clean, well equipped with everything you need. Great for families and pets because it has a fully fenced yard and a deck where you have a partial (but excellent) view of the mountains. Perfect location easy walk to Joseph’s cute little downtown. We will definitely stay here again!

So glad we went! Joseph, OR is a hidden gem. So much to do and see. All the outdoor fun you could want. This little 2 bedroom cottage was just right for our family and dog. Close to downtown, places to walk the dog around, and a fenced in spacious back yard. We look forward to returning.
