Joseph, the best little town in Oregon, just ask the locals! Often referred to as the “Little
Switzerland of America”, Joseph is a one-of-a-kind place rich in agriculture and history nestled
among some of the most outstanding geography you’ll ever see, topped off by the breathtaking
Wallowa mountain range of northeast Oregon.
Our town is for the art connoisseur, the outdoor enthusiast, the historian and of course the one
who loves to shop! Joseph is sprinkled with specialty shops and galleries that won’t disappoint,
world class fine art & foundries, local clothing, baked goods, chocolates, wines, and coffees, just
to name a few. The surrounding landscape is second to none and beckons to the bicycler, the
motor cycle rider, the photographer, the horse lover, the hunter, the one who loves to fish…all
those who appreciate the great out-of-doors. We host several signature events throughout the
year as well as town art walks, tastings, music events and more, we invite you to enjoy all that
suit your fancy.
Get away from it all and rest assured that you have found the perfect place, we offer comfortable
accommodations, great dining, and the friendliest folks you’ll ever meet. Some say we’re a step
