Karen and Doug Filos are the driving force behind Peace of Paradise. United by a passion for blending creativity and nature, they set out to create a space where these elements merge to inspire those who dare to dream, create, and live fully.

Karen, a true artist with a background in hair and makeup styling, has always been drawn to a life grounded in creativity. She envisioned a sanctuary where people could escape the everyday hustle and reconnect with their creative spirit. Doug, who shares Karen's love for the outdoors and hosting, brought his passion for creating welcoming, engaging environments that foster unforgettable memories.

Their journey brought them to Paradise Valley, Montana, where the breathtaking landscapes, vibrant community of artists and ranchers, and serene atmosphere felt like the perfect backdrop for their long-held dream.

Together, Karen and Doug have poured their hearts into Peace of Paradise, transforming it into more than just a venue — it’s a haven for creatives, a place where connections flourish and memories are made. They hope every guest who visits experiences the same peace and inspiration that first drew them to this special place.

At Peace of Paradise, our mission is to create inspiring spaces where people can gather, share, and create in an environment that fosters community and connection. We envision a haven for creatives — a place where every season of life is celebrated, connections grow deeper, and memories are made, all set against the breathtaking backdrop of Paradise Valley.
