It was a quick trip to Joseph. We loved our stay.

Neat and tidy with everything you will need for a getaway in Joseph. Located only afew blocks from Main Street, it's a short walk to shops and restaurants. We were there in February over President's Day, so many places were on winter hours. We still had a lovely time with the mountain views and bright blue sky. We plan to come back in the summer.

This house was perfectly equipped, spotlessly clean, and comfortable beds. Great for a weekend in Joseph and you can walk anywhere in town. Great place to stay!

This house is charming and in a perfect location two blocks from downtown. The view of the mountains is spectacular and the beds, pillows, and linens are wonderful. The kitchen is small, doesn’t have a dishwasher and is not well stocked with quality cookware. We were glad we had pre-cooked our meals at home.

Excellent views from the deck. Really comfy bed.

Our stay in Joseph, and in this rental, was magic. The beauty and peace abounds! If you are looking in a rental for glamorous and modern, forget it. If you are willing to be transported back in time and stay in this small up-kept house straight from the 50's, you have found your dream. Yes, there are creaky floors and drawers, old style two person kitchen table, and small tub and shower but all just added to the charm. Appliances, heating, water heating, beds, and furniture were all great. And the fenced backyard, though non-assuming was spacious and PERFECT for our pup (along with the added dog bed, toy, treats and pup towels provided) For us people, the side deck was a nice place for morning coffee, and an evening vantage of beautiful sunsets. Walking the neighborhood, sooo close to the cute downtown AND to Wallowa Lake..it all felt like a big comfortable hug. I would stay here again in a heartbeat

Best pet property I've seen. Even without a pet, great place and location. A bit spendy but was happy with the stay and would do it again. Note to self....if you don't like crowds, check the calendar and avoid Chief Joseph Days. We wondered in not knowing what was going on and still enjoyed it.

My husband and I and dogs went to Jospeh to hike and have a quick getaway. The house was perfect for us! It was clean, cozy, great location to hike and go to the lake. We were also able to walk to town. Our dogs loved roaming the big yard after a long hike. We would definitely stay here again!

This little cottage is nicely furnished and great for pets as it has a large fenced back yard with deer and squirrel sightings to keep your dogs entertained. We like the improvements thus far, the hardwood floors and bathroom remodel are nice. We also appreciated the AC unit in the bedroom - as the living area and kitchen heated up. We were able to walk downtown to dinner which was great. Highly recommend Embers Brewhouse - the best service and food, and staff are great. The owner of this vacation house, Stephanie, was both nice and responsive when we reached out. Be sure to plan a day to the lake and another to the Wallowas.

A very clean, well-stocked cottage. The owner was responsive although we had no complaints (only a question). Nicely appointed and close to town. Big yard, comfortable beds.

We took a week for the kids' spring break to visit Joseph during the shoulder season. This spot is in a great location for accessing everything. IT's walking distance to downtown and a short drive to Lake Wallowa state park for fishing and hanging out on the beach, or the nearby hikes. The dog loved the back yard and the treats. We had everything we needed in the kitchen and had a wonderful cozy stay! We'd love to come back in the summer!

Great vacation home. Super clean, well equipped with everything you need. Great for families and pets because it has a fully fenced yard and a deck where you have a partial (but excellent) view of the mountains. Perfect location easy walk to Joseph’s cute little downtown. We will definitely stay here again!

The hosts are very experienced as everything possibly needed was stocked, excellent communication provided and immaculate property. Very well situated in Joseph with easy walking distance to Main St.’s bar, brewery and restaurants/shops. Thank you for a wonderful and comfortable mini pre-Thanksgiving vacation!

This is the third time we've stayed at this house, and we always enjoy it. The view is great. Our dog loves the backyard.

My kids and I adored this cottage. It is wonderful! It’s close to downtown. It’s lovely to sit on the deck. The weather did not cooperate with the outdoor activities we had planned, but we were happy and cozy hanging out here. Highly recommend!!
5.0
Just what we wanted: clean and comfortable cottage with easy walk to downtown and the rodeo. Great communication. We'd stay again.

We loved this little house. It was perfect for 3 adults and a one year old. The baby had access to the deck which was great as he’s an outdoor little dude! We did have to use the outside furniture to block off the stairs but it worked perfect for him to come and go. The views from the deck are beautiful ( minus the power lines but you gotta have electricity)! The kitchen was stocked with all necessary things for eating in however we ate out each day! The Larger bedroom bed was very comfortable; bedroom 2 bed was ok (it’s a metal platform with a real basic mattress laid on top! It had one fan but it would’ve been nice to have a few more. It said there was an AC unit provided but we did not see one; we opened all the windows at night and it cooled off enough to sleep comfortably (but if it had been any hotter; it was 87, the AC/fans would’ve been nice)! We did not ask the owner about the AC unit since we were gone most of the day anyway! It may be there and we just didn’t see it! All in all the place was comfortable and clean and close to town so it met the needs we were looking for!

Stephanie’s house is a wonderful place to stay in Joseph. We had a great time with our pups. There were a lot of nice touches to help us and our pets feel at home including dog bowls and treats. The home is walking distance from downtown restaurants snd shops. Stephanie was very easy to work with and was a great host!

This property was perfect and exactly as described. The home was spotless, beds comfortable, plush towels, well-equipped kitchen, and great views of the mountains. The location is great for walking to Joseph. The neighborhood is very quiet. The backyard is large and well maintained.

Breathtaking mountain views, very easy check in, and perfect location! The beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen was stocked with all we needed. The fully fenced yard was a huge plus for furry friends. We will 100% be staying here again!

Perfect! Perfect location, cozy accommodation and very responsive owner. We were going to bring our dog, but then chose not to. I wish we had. This VRBO was very dog friendly, they were set up to welcome Sidney. We’ll be back in the Spring or Fall. (We stayed over Christmas).

Very pleasant. Well equipped, super clean house, tasteful furnishings. Loved the deck and our dog appreciated the large and securely fenced back yard. Quiet neighborhood. Loved having deer for neighbors!
5.0
This cottage was perfect for my husband's and my stay in Joseph. With 2 bedrooms, it accommodated the 3 days that another couple stayed with us, and the large fenced yard was heaven for our 2 dogs. It's location is great for walking or biking to anywhere in Joseph or to the north end of Wallowa Lake. It is in a quiet residential neighborhood. The beds were super comfortable and the bathroom had obviously been updated recently. It was maybe a little tight for 4 adults, but fine for good friends, and ideal for just a couple. Increasing the floor space is the inviting side deck, a great place to enjoy breakfast or dinner. There is a bit more updating that could occur with the kitchen floor and side entry, but I'm sure they'll get to that. Stephanie was so easy to work with and very responsive. I definitely recommend the Serendipity Cottage.
