Mavens’ Haven

Sharing Self-Sufficiency
As A Way of Life

A unique idaho retreat on the salmon river

Mavens’ Haven invites you to restoration and healing on the banks of the Salmon River in Lucile, Idaho. Attend a unique Idaho retreat, relax in a personal getaway, create a family celebration, or facilitate your company training.

Surrounded by National Forests and Wilderness Areas, the Haven is nine miles downstream from Riggins, a popular rafting and fishing destination.

Retreat with us

Our events feature herbal medicine, healthy and local cuisine, wilderness and homesteading skills, ethical sustainability, creative writing and the humanities, and contemplative practices such as yoga and meditation. 

BOOK your Event

Plan a special weekend for your company, board, family, or group of friends. Stay a few days or several. Talk with us about whatever kind of support you need, from the kitchen to yoga to facilitation.

Accommodations

 Guests receive a beautiful space to rest, learn, and rebuild. The main house, deck, and lawn overlook the river. Enjoy the vegetable garden, fruit orchard and grape arbors, chickens, a wood-fired sauna, koi pond, beach with swimming eddy, pickleball court, and Hecate Labyrinth.

Unique accommodations include off-the-grid, custom-built sheep wagons. Each distinctive wagon features a queen-size bed with high-quality linens, wood-burning stove, bench, and table. Outside each wagon, guests have their own area to relax with table and chairs.

We also feature a vintage trailer court with two Alohas and a Silverstream. Each trailer has been refurbished and comfortably outfitted.
