Special Dietary Needs: When communicated in advance, we generally can provide menu items that will accommodate vegetarian and gluten-free needs. Outside of these, we need you to bring the special food items you require. Food allergies should always be communicated directly with the site. There are some complex needs that we may not be able to accommodate.
Site Reservations: Wallowa Lake Camp is available for use by individuals and families in addition to many nonprofit groups.
