Our Story
My name is Shae Mordja & I am the single mama of Eva Mae & Anya Belle. My now ex-husband & I bought this land sight unseen from the internet in 2007 & when we drove up from Arizona to see what we bought, we fell absolutely in love with Gold Beach! We altered our lives & worked hard for years to build this home with dreams of raising our family here but, well, life happened & by the time the home was finished being built, the girls & I moved into it alone in December of 2018. In July of 2019 I opened our home as a family & pet friendly bed & breakfast & at the end of October 2019 I opened my esthetics spa out of the ranch house. It’s been quite the year!
I am a former Chandler Police Officer, turned stay-at-home mama, turned Licensed Aesthetician & Aesthetic Laser Technician in Arizona & Licensed Esthetician in Oregon. I pride myself on my honesty & integrity & am ridiculously passionate about skincare which is a fairly unregulated industry with an unfortunate number of unethical people pushing ineffective or unnecessary products & services on trusting consumers. I have training & licensing in everything from basic facials, keratin lash & brow treatments, full body treatments & waxing to advanced chemical peels, laser, radio frequency & ultrasound. I am scientifically minded & results driven so I do extensive research, training & whatever available continuing education is available for everything I offer & I only offer what I research to be the very best in professional products, equipment, services, procedures & the like. If there is a product or service that I know to be better for you than what I offer, I will always research the very best place for you to be properly taken care of collaborate with various basic estheticians, advanced estheticians, doctors & med spas across the country.
In addition to esthetics, the girls & I run a family & pet friendly bed & breakfast out of our brand new, light & airy 4600 sqft ranch house on 52.5 acres. We are developing an agritourism farm stay where our developing, family farm/ranch is open to guests who stay with us & are able to enjoy the luxury of "living" on a farm, if even for only a day.
We currently have two indoor/outdoor dogs; 15 year old deaf & almost blind rescue Beagle, Killian & our 1.5 year old rescue muttley, Scotch, two outdoor rescue cats; Saber & Rocky Rogue, an 18 year old rescue horse; Daisy, a miniature horse given to us by a friend to keep Daisy company; Cocoa Puff AKA Eeyore, four goats given to us by a rescue & friends; Twix, Birdie, Max & Duke & an ever changing number of bunnies because, well, they're bunnies & they do that, haha!
