FIND A BED

We are hoping that most of you choose to stay on-site at the Common Ground Center and celebrate with us ALL weekend!  The facility has a variety of housing options, ranging from the more polished “Eco Lodge” to rustic cabins to tent platforms to find-your-own patch of grass.  Most cabins and rooms have multiple beds, so you might have to get organized and share with someone you know (or be adventurous and share with someone you don't!).

Here are more details on the options and pricing (Note: all prices are a flat rate for the entire weekend, regardless of whether you stay 1 night or 2):

To reserve a bed or discuss options please e-mail Carrie (c.a.childs (at) gmail.com) or Bryan (bjonesarchitecture (at) gmail.com)
