Located in North Eastern Oregon about one mile south of quaint art town of Joseph Oregon and seven miles south of the largest town in the County, Enterprise, Oregon (pop. 1710). This distant, end of the road location prevents the usual onslaught of most tourist destinations and sets the state for an incredible Oregon Romantic Getaway.
The Lake is 3.7 miles long and ¾ mile wide with a depth of 290 ft. Elevation is 4,372 ft and sometimes freezes solid in the winter. The weather at Wallowa Lake is typically 80 – 90 in the summer. Nighttime temps usually fall quickly. Occasional thunderstorms build in the afternoons creating a light show with echoing thunder through the mountains. How romantic is that?
