The Inspiration
The Hollows was shaped by our own years of travel, exploration, and a deep appreciation for experiences that feel both grounding and transformative. From remote cabins and backcountry campsites to hiking mountains, canoeing on quiet lakes and winding rivers, learning thermal rituals, and time spent in cities and countrysides around the world, we discovered a shared truth — the most meaningful moments are often the simplest. A crackling fire. Cold water on warm skin. Silence broken only by wind through the trees. These moments taught us the profound power of nature to restore both mind and body.
Designed with Intention
Wellness at The Hollows is intuitive, not prescriptive. We believe restoration happens naturally when you give yourself permission to slow down. Guests are encouraged to move at their own rhythm — lingering over morning coffee as sunlight filters through the trees, stargazing near a crackling fire, taking part in a Nordic thermal cycle beneath open skies, or wandering forest trails with no destination in mind.
Inspired by the elements themselves, our private sauna, cold plunge, outdoor shower, and hot tub invite guests to reconnect with heat, cold, water, and fresh air — a simple yet powerful ritual that supports clarity, circulation, and deep relaxation.
Design plays a quiet but intentional role in the experience. Every detail has been thoughtfully curated to feel refined, warm, and timeless. From natural textures and calming palettes to plush bedding and carefully selected amenities, our chalets are designed to feel like a sanctuary — a place where modern luxury blends seamlessly with the surrounding wilderness.
At its core, The Hollows is about presence. About stepping away from constant noise and rediscovering stillness. About reconnecting — with nature, with your body, and with yourself.
We created The Hollows as a place we longed for ourselves — and now we invite you to experience it too. A retreat where luxury feels effortless, nature remains untouched, and restoration happens naturally.
Who We Are
We are Paul and Sara Maybee, partners in life and business, raising a blended family of four, sharing our home with our beloved pets, and always balancing big dreams with an ever-growing to-do list.
Our love for the outdoors and understanding how restorative time in nature can be for mental and physical health, sparked the vision for The Hollows. — a place where nature isn’t something you escape to, but something you truly live within.
We wanted to create a retreat that feels elevated yet honest, luxurious yet rooted in the land. A space where comfort enhances the experience without distracting from the beauty already present.
We invite you into a stay shaped by calm, comfort, and quiet restoration.
