Lodging
Kinhaven is generously offering us the use of their cabins at no cost for any guests who would like to stay on site. Kinhaven's website describes them as "spacious, state-of-the-art cabins"...and in the domain of sleep away summer camps, they are! But they're also pretty basic and without much in the way of creature comforts. The room won't be 5-star, but you can't beat the location!
The cabins sleep 4-8 in a room (some are bigger than others). Guests would be asked to bring their own sleeping bags or sheets and blankets -- check out our complete packing list. The cabins are connected by a covered walkway to shared bathrooms and showers.
There will also be areas to set up a tent if you're interested in a different on-site option; campers will also have access to bathrooms, of course.
Tent sites and cabins will be available Friday and Saturday nights. Let us know on the RSVP page if you would like to reserve a cabin or tent site on campus for one or both nights.
(A quick note about pets: We, as a rule, love pets, probably even your amazing pet! But we ask that you please leave your pets at home. Thanks for understanding.

Other Ideas
For those interested in exploring farther afield, the Southern and Central Vermont region boasts approximately a zillion lodging options beyond Weston and surrounding towns. Below are a couple of ideas, and check out our VT in Fall page for more inspiration.
Manchester (~35 min. drive) is the commercial and tourism hub of the region, featuring shops (or is it shoppes?) galore in a central, walkable area. Northshire is one of the greatest bookstores of all time.

Brattleboro (~1 hr. drive) is the southern gateway to Vermont, an eclectic, quirky town packed with galleries, music, and local food and drink. Delight in having all your Vermont stereotypes reinforced...in a good way!

If you're into the whole sharing economy thing, we've also had nice luck renting rooms or houses through AirBnB. Could be a great option for groups, or simply for a touch of home away from home.
