You really need a car to get to most of the restaurants in the area, and it's quite a way uphill from the lake, but if you're just using this as a stop while travelling through, or wanted a really peaceful retreat, then this is perfect. The decor is a little dated by now, but everything was very comfortable and highly recommended, especially for an overnight stay. My biggest criticism was that I'd booked this because it had B&B in its name but after booking it the hosts contacted me to confirm there was no food available at the property. I didn't cancel the booking as I had enough time to plan an alternative (Hello Toast in Kamloops, 1 hour away) but was a little annoying.

This was the perfect location for a stop while travelling on the trans-Canada highway, about 6 hours from Calgary and such a pretty and quiet location. The room was really well equipped and comfortable and the hosts were very friendly and welcoming. The bed was large and extremely comfortable, the shower hot, there was parking outside and we were able to stream on the TV. There was also a separate seating area and plenty of space to open up two large cases, so it was perfect for what we needed.

The television stations did not deserve any of our time. Might as well not have a TV.

Great location, and facilities! Like a home away from home, garden was beautiful.

Room was a bit small, with no writing desk and a double bed.

Beautiful view from the large deck. Perfect location for our needs.

Not a thing!

We were provided with coffee and large delicious homemade cookies for breakfast. There were flowers on the table, a small fridge, large TV and the supplies in the bathroom included shampoo etc and hairdryer. The room was very large and the bed linens were exceptionally soft and comfortable. The garden was beautiful with sitting areas available to the guests. The owners were delightful. We will definitely be back!

The location is perfect and the house is beautiful. The hosts were very generous to upgrade my room to a suite and I appreciated every moment I spent there.

There was only one chair and no table in the room and the fridge was a 1/4 fridge not a typical under the counter half fridge. The traffic noise from Canada Hwy 1 was noticeable on the patio and somewhat in the room when trying to get to sleep.

The hosts were excellent and the property was very clean and had high end finishings.

The location is amazing and it truly is a hidden gem. Not only is the place clean and well kept the magnificent backyard is a world of its own/ with little relaxing nooks and paths surrounded by trees and flowers! Above all, the hosts are truly gracious and were expressly accommodating when we couldn’t make it on the set dates due to illness. We d recommend Selah retreat to anyone in a heartbeat!

Everything. Very, very friendly owners. Beautiful place with all we needed. It’s a shame we only booked for one night. Tip: book at least for two nights, it’s worth it and there is enough to do in the area.

The decor is very dated

A nice place but dated. I suggest the stay should be about $50 less.

This is an exceptional accommodation, matched by the beautiful owners. We were greeted by Rick and Adela and advised that they had given us a complimentary upgrade to a self contained unit. The unit was very spacious, very clean and had a large comfortable bed. The extra touches were appreciated - yummy cookies on arrival, and delicious muffins to take with us on departure. The unit had lots of information books on things to do in the area, and our hosts were really helpful with lots of tips as well. I would thoroughly recommend staying here.

Already talked to owners about confusing map printed on booking confirmation. Google maps can be inaccurate in our experience in both urban & rural areas at times & so we always print human made directions if possible. A North arrow, location of lake printed on map or distance to turnoff from highway at Hilltop Rd from a landmark would have been helpful esp b/c postal address & actual location are different.

Everything Else....10/5 star rating! 😀 😃 🙂 Wrote lots in guest book! Will return if in area again & recommend to others!

Selah is a tranquil oasis overlooking Shuswap Lake in the Okanagan Valley. The garden was so inviting with places to sit and chat or just reflect in peace. The apartment was lovely and so thoughtfully decorated. Rick and Adela were most gracious and helpful. We loved our stay and will make this our regular stop in future travels through BC.
