    Adorable motel that is very clean and quiet. Will definitely stay again when in the Wallowa area.

    Spotlessly clean and lovingly maintained property. Priced right. Nice staff. Small older TV....but good reception and plenty of channels.

    Oh come on with the poor reviews. The Wallowa Lake Lodge is exactly what it is suppose to be. A…read morehistoric lake front lodge in a national forest. Okay, the food isn't "foodie" worthy, but it is decent. The drinks - including a nice assortment of cocktails, are all well curated and fairly priced. The atmosphere is great. The back deck overlooks a grassy area with picnic tables and plenty of area to relax. Yes, the property is a no pet property, and that isn't all bad - especially as some folks are allergic or just plain don't care for pets. I think being a no pet property is great - and I am a take my dog everywhere person. I suggest going to the Wallow Lake Lodge for the Happy Hour. Get some fries, and then grab your dog and walk down to the lake off the property to end a great evening.

    We haven't stayed at the lodge in years since moving to Joseph (3 miles away) in 2015, so we are…read morenow locals. This review concerns the dining. At best our dining experiance has been just (3) stars, very disappointing for the historic lodge. There are two dining options, Restaurant side and the Bar side. The Restaurant menu has something for everyone, but bring some extra bucks. Our eating experiance here is from really good to cold food having to be Microwaved back to an edible temperature. The Restaurant seating area is typical of the era when the lodge was built, very comfortable. The bar seating area inside the lodge is fine, typical lodge atmosphere but with a bar in the corner. Seating areas for reading, Dominos or quiet conversation. My issue is the outside deck area, over looking the Park like landscape. The Restaurant dining area takes up 2/3 of the spacious deck and has the most uncomfortable metal chairs, literally grinding into ones back, Why? The Bar section has Andirondack (sp) chairs with a small table between pairs of chairs. Great for a drink and an appetizer plate. Definitely not for enjoying a Burger. Foodwise, basic bar menu; a little spendy a few bucks higher than a typical Joseph eatery. The staff is friendly, timely; not intrusive. IMHO

    The hotel is probably the best in this small town. The property was clean, both outside and inside…read more My room wasn't cleaned on my third night and the clerk didn't seem to take notice of my complaint. At check in I was assigned a room on the second floor. When given instructions on the best stairwell to access my room I learned there was no elevator. Due to health conditions I find climbing stairs to be extremely difficult. I asked if he could change m3 to a first floor room and he said that would not be possible though it appeared to me that I was an early check in he should have easily charged room assignment. Apparently he was not authorized to make any decisions as I heard him tell other guests that he would have to call the owner or manager. I'm a loyal Best Western traveler and though this hotel was just "okay" I find that their sub brands are not nearly as nice as their core brand. The free breakfast while adequate was the same each morning, sausage gravy, biscuits, sausage links and sausage patties and pre fried eggs. No fresh fruit but three cold cereals and selection of breads.

    Wow, So we had just driven from the Bay Area California…read moreSTRAIGHT through to Enterprise (overall almost 20 HOURS!) and we were BEAT! We saw online about this place and really weren't expecting TOO much. Boy were we surprised! Upon arrival we were greeted with GORGEOUS views of Oregon! Absolutely breathtaking! The front desk clerk Andy was really nice and welcoming. Made checking in super simple. He explained all the amenities perfectly. And got us to our room in a hurry which we loved cause we were so tired. He explained that there was no elevator which we didn't mind cause we traveled light. When we got to the room it was exactly what we needed. Everything was clean and and in great working order. Only thing is the DirectTv left a lot of channels to be desired. In the morning the continental breakfast is from 6-10. I over slept so didnt get in till 7. When I opened the warmer they were out of eggs and biscuits. I was slightly bummed but knew it was my fault so I didn't mind too much. Well the day time lady (forget her name) came out in a hurry with a HUGE good morning and noticed and immediately asked if I'd like some and made me some FRESH! I ate alot and went back to sleep. Oops over slept again! It was 10 and check out is at 11! I called down to inquire about a late checkout and the super nice clerk gave me untill 12! What great service! PROS: Great service Good continental breakfast Great value CONS: No elevator TV channels lacking

The lodge is historic and there is a lot of cool history. There are a lot of cool pictures off the lodge I days past hanging on the walls which gives it a "Shining" ambiance. Getting in the tubs first thing in the morning and watching the steam come off the lake while soaking and relaxing is a wonderful start to the day. Overall I highly recommend the experience.

I went back prior to covid with my mom and we had a great time when it was renovated and turned into a hotel/museum for people to visit during the day. We spent two days there and had so much fun with the authentic antique feeling the place had. Now, fast forward to 2026, I was on a road trip from LA to visit a friend in Idaho and I thought I'd stop by. Sadly, this place now has turned into a full fledged mini resort and it looks like they are trying to coverup its past with every turn. I barely recognized the inside and any mention of the word "Haunted" is utter blasphemy. I asked the bartender about it, thinking she gets asked that all the time, and she read me the riot act. As, I back pedaled out of the bar area, I realized this place is not at all what it used to be and it was time to leave. As I left, I let the front desk know that I have told hundreds of people about this place but, this was the last time. A few of the employees were nice, the grounds are kept, and outside of a few smells it's not too bad on the outside. Inside, save your money (rooms are expensive), they think they banished all of the ghosts, and the female bartender is now the scariest part about the place. Take a few pics from outside and then just keep driving. Needless to say, I might go back one day when the ghosts take back over,
