In the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest, there’s a remote lodge where you can visit to truly get away from it all. Surrounded by natural beauty in the heart of the Eagle Cap Wilderness, the Minam River Lodge offers a once in a lifetime opportunity to relax in luxury in the middle of the forest.
If you’re looking to truly get away from it all, then head on out to Minam River Lodge.
Located in the heart of the Eagle Cap Wilderness and surrounded by the Wallowa Mountains, this gorgeous lodge resides on what was an original homestead. You’ll be close to the Minam River, which flows right on the property.
The lodge offers many different types of accommodations.
You’ll find stand-alone cabins, attached cabins, and two grand cabins. All the cabins have at least one cozy queen bed, private baths, and waterfall showers.

There are also three glamping style options available.
Try out the walled tents, located on raised wooden platforms and outfitted with queen beds and luxury linens. This is as close to the wilderness as you can get while still enjoying all the comforts of home.
The suite has floor-to-ceiling windows and even a freestanding copper tub. There is a rustic elegance in each and every type of accommodation on the property.
All the food served is either grown on the property or flown in from local farmers.
You’ll also enjoy the fine wine selection, many from Walla Walla, while you have dinner. Or take a drink to their expansive deck that overlooks the stunning mountains nearby.
Because it’s remote, you’ll either have to hike 8.5 miles, ride a horse in, or have a small plane fly you in to the grass strip. This adds a touch of magic to your trip, reminding you of how secluded and peaceful your stay will be!
Put this incredible remote backcountry lodge on your bucket list.
A true oasis in the middle of the wilderness, this is an experience you don’t want to miss. Whether you’re looking for an active vacation or a relaxing weekend away from it all, you will have the trip of a lifetime.
