About this property

The Cedar Casita at Selah Place

Welcome to The Cedar Casita at Selah Place, a modern micro-retreat designed for stillness and connection. Featuring a king bed with loft sleeping space, a spa-style rain shower, and a calm, minimalist design, it is ideal for couples or small groups seeking a peaceful escape in nature.

Curated add-on experiences available upon request.

Step into The Cedar, your stillness studio at Selah Place, a place where quiet moments, connection, and rest come together.

With clean design and a calming palette, this casita invites you to slow down, breathe deeper, and be fully present. Whether sharing the space with loved ones or enjoying the stillness alone, every detail is designed to feel effortless and grounding.

Inside, you will find a comfortable king bed, a cozy loft sleeping space, and an open layout that encourages both rest and togetherness. After time by the lake or pool, refresh in the spa-style rain shower and settle into the quiet rhythm of the evening. As the sun sets, the pace softens, and the space becomes your place to unwind, reconnect, and simply be.

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

Relax and enjoy

A family of three stayed in a Casita for three nights. The quaint abode added to the enjoyment. The quiet environment is definitely a plus. Accessibility to Athens is within 10 minutes, which is perfect if you want to enjoy nature and have ice cream within reach.

40th twinZ party

We had a great experience only came across a few problems. The Entranceway to the cabins wasn't so easy to locate. the parking area for the cabins were a little too small once more people started showing up to the other cabins. the latter In the cabin didn't seem stable enough and kept slipping Out from under my husband and I as we tried to climb to the top Loft area. (Mind you that we both, weigh about 200lbs each) so if there was a weight limit it. I didn't see it. Lastly no creamer at all for coffee? So may i suggest, at last a powder form. Maybe even little cheap packets. Overall, thank you so much for Lending out your space To us We had a wonderful time
