33mi from Klamath River · 24 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging✨ Whisper Canyon Ranch — Nature, Community & a Little Bit of Magic ✨
Tucked into 70 private acres in the mountains of Southern Oregon’s Illinois Valley, Whisper Canyon Ranch feels like a hidden world of meadows, forest trails, and starry nights. We’re just 4 miles from Selma—easy to reach, yet surrounded by BLM land and pure wilderness. Guests are close to some of the region’s favorite natural gems: Lake Selmac (1 mile), the Illinois River (5 miles), Oregon Caves (45 min), and the Redwoods (1 hour).
Whisper Canyon is a wedding & event venue first and foremost, which means the land has been thoughtfully developed for beauty, comfort, and gatherings.
Outside of our private events, we welcome a unique community of travelers into this enchanted forest. Cabin guests, tent campers, van life nomads, and glampers are all welcome here.
We can host up to 34 overnight guests in our cabins and larger private groups on select weekends using our main event spaces like the Pavilion and the Cosmic Café. Keep in mind that because we host weddings, the noise curfew on the weekends is midnight.

Guests come for the quiet mornings, star-filled nights, because there is something profoundly magical about the land. Whether you’re wandering the forest, laying by the pool, or just drinking coffee, this place is sure to change you.
