Perfect

There were eight of us staying at Selah Cabin. The location in the country was pretty and peaceful. The cabin has a wonderful kitchen, four bedrooms and three bathrooms, perfect for eight females. There was plenty of room for us to enjoy our sister weekend. We enjoyed our outings into Hannibal and Monroe City. We would all recommend Selah Cabin.

Beautiful Family Cabin

Selah Cabin was a perfect place for our large family of twelve. The location is beautiful and so is the cabin. There were plenty of beds to sleep and space to spread out. The kids enjoyed playing pool downstairs and spending time outside. There is a vast grassy area to play or take a walk. Or relax on the upper deck or lower porch. I personally, enjoyed the porch swing in the evenings watching fireflies and listening to frogs. The host is very friendly, responsive, and thoughtful she even set up a crib for our toddler. Cabin was clean and bedding and towels were clean. It felt very welcoming. My family all loved Selah Cabin and wish we could have stayed longer. Highly recommend staying here!

Wedding guests

We had a family wedding in nearby Monroe City, and we needed a place to stay. This place worked perfectly for us. We enjoyed the quiet setting. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well-stocked. We were able to find everything we needed…including an iron and steamer for those dress clothes. We would definitely stay again!

This was a perfect place to have a Summer Family gathering. The house was wonderfully designed and the host had the place extremely well supplied. There were also very accommodating to any questions or requests. We had very little contact with the host only because they ensured the wasnt a need. Even a game library-room contained games for every age from the youngest child to oldest adults and a variety of likes and skills.Loved the balcony overlooking the large yard area. Great for watching the birds, fireflies, bats, and even deer at one point. Place was close to Hannibal for sight seeing. And the beach at the lake.

About the host

Hosted by Rachel

Host profile image
We are an active family of 12. We love showing hospitality, cooking and smoking different foods, working outdoors, and singing together.

Why they chose this property

From the property, you would never guess we are less than a half mile from Hwy 24/36. It is so relaxing to sit under the walnut trees playing horse shoes or corn hole, or to sit on the porches watching deer or birds cross the field, or to watch a glorious sunrise from either of the eastern-facing bedrooms.

What makes this property unique

We like to think of this house as a place to stop and rest from the busyness of everyday life. Whether you need space to spend some quiet time thinking or want a place for some family fun, we hope you’ll be comfortable here.
