About this property

Casita 4 · Whimsical cozy tiny home in nature near water

Let the world slow down at "The Maple," a peaceful micro-cabin at Selah Place Resort designed for deep rest. Inside, soothing textures, a luxe rain shower, and soft lighting set the tone. Outside, explore tranquil paths, dip in the pool, or fish the lake. No alarms, no rush—just quiet rhythms and soul-deep stillness.

- Curated add-on experiences available upon request. -

-------------------
The Maple was designed for slow moments, meaningful connection, and time that feels set apart from the everyday.

With a warm, calming palette and a simple, inviting layout, this casita creates a space where you can fully relax and be present with one another. Whether you are celebrating something special or simply stepping away for a while, the atmosphere encourages you to slow down and stay a little longer.

Inside, you will find a comfortable bed, a spa-style rain shower, and thoughtful touches that make the space feel cozy without distraction. After a walk by the lake or a quiet afternoon by the pool, return to your space and settle into the ease of the evening. Here, moments feel softer, and time feels shared.

Enhance your stay with curated Selah experiences, from cozy fire-lit evenings to in-home comforts designed for deeper connection.

Great place!

We were looking for a outdoor experience while being able to work from him during the day. This place was perfect! Small cozy room with outdoor fire pit to cook, a small desk to work and Great Lakes near by to to access with our boat!
