Vesper’s Lakeview was home to the owners of the Wallowa Lake Lodge for the past half century. It was designed by an architect in the 50s and has a unique location and relationship to the lake unlike any other nearby rentals. It is sited on multiple forested acres with its own network of private hiking trails and East Moraine access. This home hadn’t changed ownership since it was built in the 50s and is a new to market rental on the lake this year. Entertain or sunbathe on the large and private south facing deck with mountain views with foxes, deer, eagles and owls that frequent the property. Walk to the lodge, state park, marina, or tram in minutes.

The eastside has longer daylight with sunset views over Wallowa Lake and Chief Joseph Mountain. Wallowa Lake Highway runs along the east lake edge between the lake and this property. The spacious interior features a cozy wood-burning fireplace, perfect for warming up after a day of skiing at the nearby Ferguson Ridge Ski Area or exploring the local wildlife. With amenities like a fully equipped kitchen, high-speed internet and a comfortable living area, you’ll feel right at home.
