We rented a unit with full kitchen, very large light and bright room, comfy beds and furniture with nice size deck out back slider. Even with the road nearby, we didn't hear a thing all night, slept great. Owner is a great guy who had helpful information about the area.

4 Ladies stayed in a teepee and it was a great experience. The site is very clean and quiet. The swimming hole is a bonus. Bathrooms/showers were good. We loved out time here!

Lovely little park! Grounds are well maintained and bathroom was clean, private and hot shower was great! I would have preferred a hand held shower head but that is a preference not a criticism! Cute cabins available at reasonable price but I opted to camp. Wish I could have stayed a couple extra days!

We've stayed here over the years and it's getting dated. Love Scott, the owner, but the faucet handles are loose, water pressure is suspect, and there are no screens on the sliding glass doors. Love the location and the price is still pretty good.

In June 2020 I did a photography-birthday-trip to Wallowa and decided to do all the overnights here! Have to say was not disappointed at all! The views are very cool! Rooms clean and nice! Pricing was very reasonable for the place you get! Just a few min. drive to Joseph! Also at that time the pictures of the rooms were not that nice in their website so as a photographer I did some nice shots of them which I'm attaching here (now they put some of my shots in the website! :)) Scott (the owner) was very friendly, we had some nice conversations. He is very caring about his business! Overall definitely recommended place!

Pleasantly surprised by this cute motel! Our friends stayed in one of the on property teepee's while we opted for an air conditioned motel room. Both were great! All immensities are clean and neat. Scott, the owner, is constantly out and about working on the property - it shows that he loves and cares for this place immensely. We will definitely stay here again! Beautiful sunset views!
