Riverwood Retreat: hot tub, outdoor sauna/shower on the Cheakamus River

Welcome! Peace and quiet envelope this riverside home. From your doorstep stroll lush forest trails, hike to alpine lakes, fish. Warm your soul and deeply relax in our new cedar sauna! Re energize with an outdoor shower or river plunge. Gather around a fire under the starry sky after a fulfilling day of fresh air. Hot tub after a rainy walk. Lounge on one of our two decks either overlooking the river or by the comfort of your home. This is a special remote spot for adventuring, relaxing and connecting to nature.
The space:
This new modern Mint tiny home is on a two acre property on the banks of the Chekamus River in Paradise Valley.
A private driveway amongst the trees opens up to a cheery bright dwelling that provides the comforts needed for indoor and outdoor living.

The interior has a clean and simplistic vibe with vaulted ceiling and accents of wood.
The kitchen has coffee, tea, oil and spices for cooking. Drink the water! The water is glacial fed well water.
The bathroom has shampoo, conditioner and body soap with plenty of space.
The queen bed is firm and if a less firm bed is desired than a topper can be added. Let me know!

Cook and dine inside or outside!
The outside has a new covered cedar deck. Its custom made couch and cushions are great for taking in the serenity of the forest views. The deck has an outside eating area as well as space for a morning yoga routine!
There is a fire pit for enjoyment outside at night, warm by the fire, under the dark and starry sky.

A path from this private spot meanders towards the river and the sauna.
The sauna is a brand new cube Nootka cedar sauna. It’s designed for pouring water over the hot rocks to make steam. Cool off with a cool shower or an even cooler river dip!

It’s a short distance from the sauna to the river deck and the river’s edge. A large cedar deck overlooks the stunning Chekamus River. It’s the perfect place to lay back on deck chairs and rest before another sauna round.

Dogs are welcome! I live on the property with my daughter and three dogs. I am happy to help you find your way around if you have questions or need anything.

I am passionate about sharing the magic of this special spot with you!
It truely is a paradise here tucked away from the hustle and bustle of modern life.

The new sauna makes this spot a perfect year round destination.


Winter. Whistler is a 50 min drive to world class ski conditions. Locally the Squamish Sea to Sky Gondola provides access to cross country ski and snowshoe trails.

Summer is great for hiking, mountain biking, lake swimming, river kayaking and rock climbing. The Chekamus River is a great way to cool off.
Fall is fishing and mushroom season. Hiking is vibrant with colour and camp fire bans are lifted.
Spring is awe inspiring to witness in the valley as the earth comes back to life and the birds return. The diversity of plant and animal life is remarkable!

The most beautiful and peaceful stay

The host’s only mission is to make sure you enjoy your stay and the amenities provided. It is such a beautiful spot, and has remained true to the Squamish culture. I could not recommend this place more, and highly suggest it.

A little piece of Paradise

This tiny home is BIG on style and amenities! The home had absolutely everything we needed for a comfortable three day stay - even a lemon zester. The sauna, hot tub and outdoor shower made us feel like we were at the spa! Lindsay and her three little pups were extremely welcoming to us and our dog. Lindsay was responsive to all questions and requests. The river here is beautiful and there are trails galore! This was the perfect city escape.

Amazing!

Exactly as described, adorable tiny home nestled in the woods. Private, quiet, friendly welcome and incredibly helpful hostess. We turned weekend wedding getaway into a vacation for ourselves and were so pleased with our stay start to finish. The cozy property was beautiful, the sauna was amazing and had beautiful views all the way around, we did not swim in the river but took a walk alongside it and it was a magical experience. The forest was like walking into a mythical land. The porch was my favorite place to spend mornings with coffee and a fire in the hammock. The bathroom was an extremely comfortable size for the space and the host was a gem, providing an iron and ironing board in a pinch and a bbq for the back porch. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a quiet, potentially adventurous getaway.
