Beautiful private location

Beautiful home, beautiful scenery and very nice owners. This was a perfect location for our yearly family trip. We had a family pics down here, it was a perfect location. Loved sitting around the dining table for family dinners and front porch sitting with the beautiful mountain scape while the kiddos ran in the yard. The horses coming to visit thru out the day was a big hit with everyone. Highly recommend the Evans Farm 👍👏

Wonderful stay

Brought my adult kids and their families out for 5 nights and days to explore the beautiful Wallowa area. The house and surroundings exceeded our expectations. Hosts were amazing, wildlife everywhere plus horses, goats and breathtaking views. Perfect spot for basecamp with everything to do just a short drive away.
