Private Celebrations · Sēlah Valley Estate
Your people. The whole valley.
Whatever the occasion — a significant birthday, an anniversary, a family reunion — the Pavilion and the valley are yours.
Up to 100 guests. Accommodation on-site for everyone who wants to stay. The setting does the work — you bring the people.
No shared venue, no strangers walking past, no neighbouring events. The whole property is exclusively yours for the duration of your celebration.
Occasions
Milestone birthdays
The whole property, exclusively yours. Everyone stays on-site and wakes up together the morning after. The birthday dinner in the Pavilion, the fire-pit late into the night.
Anniversaries
Intimate or large. The Pavilion, a private dinner, the valley as the backdrop. Accommodation on-site for the people who matter most.
Family reunions
Four ways to stay on the one property. The farm for the kids, the creek for the afternoon, the fire-pit for everyone else. No strangers, no shared resort — just family.

Everyone stays. The morning after is part of it.
The Homestead, Hillside Cabins, Creekside Lodges, and Premium Camping — all four options on the same property. No shuttles, no split groups. The party ends when you decide it ends, and everyone wakes up together.

Frequently asked questions
Milestone birthdays (50th, 60th, 70th), significant anniversaries, family reunions, and retirement celebrations are the most common. The format — exclusive property, everyone stays on-site, fire-pit and creek at your disposal — suits any occasion where you want the people who matter most to actually stay, not just come and go.
The Pavilion accommodates up to 100 guests for a seated event. For smaller, more intimate gatherings, the grounds and creek areas can host beautiful informal celebrations. The property works well from 20 guests up to the full 100.
No — day guests are welcome for the event itself, with on-site parking available for non-staying visitors. Many celebrations have a core group staying across The Homestead, Hillside Cabins, and Creekside Lodges, with broader family or friends attending for the day only.
Yes, with advance approval. All theming and décor must be pre-approved. No alterations to fixtures are permitted. Candles must be in glass vessels.
