A Lakeside Retreat at the Meadowlark: Where Vintage Charm Meets Wallowa Wilderness
If you're dreaming of waking up to shimmering water, mountain silhouettes, the Meadowlark on Wallowa Lake delivers that magic from the moment you arrive. Set directly on the waterfront, this dog-friendly home is positioned perfectly to showcase the dramatic east moraine and the ever-changing colors of Wallowa Lake.
The Meadowlark’s charm begins the moment you step inside. The main level opens into a warm, vintage-inspired space where the kitchen and dining room welcome you with sunlight and lake views from the living room. With two dining tables, this is a home that invites long game nights, puzzle marathons, and shared meals as the lake glows outside the windows.
Just beyond, the spacious living room centers around a rustic stone fireplace—perfect for cool evenings after a day on the water. Off the living room, a large sliding glass door opens to the deck. This deck quickly becomes the heart of your stay: a place to sip your morning coffee, read in the afternoon sun, or simply sit and watch your kids play in the flat grassy yard below. And of course, the private boat dock is always calling—an irresistible invitation to swim, fish, or launch out for a quiet paddle. Please note the docks are seasonal!
On the main floor, you’ll also find a full bathroom with a shower/tub combination, along with the primary bedroom and king bed. This serene space also features its own sliding door to the deck, making sunrise wake-ups especially magical. A utility room with a washer and dryer, as well as a convenient half-bath, is tucked just off the living room.
Climb the stairs and the lake views only get better. The upper floor offers two more bedrooms, each with its own balcony—a rare treat that brings the serenity of Wallowa Lake right to your doorstep. You’ll also find another full bathroom upstairs, making the home ideal for families or groups who prefer a little extra space to spread out.
Whether you're cozying up by the fireplace, enjoying peaceful afternoons on the deck, or heading down to your private dock for a day on the water, the Meadowlark offers the perfect blend of comfort, nostalgia, and natural beauty. It’s a home that invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and settle into lakeside living—one sunrise, sunset, and star-filled night at a time.
You'll need your own form of transportation.
