Learning Center Accommodations
Single, Double, Triple and Quad
Accommodations are for families and groups
who wish to guarantee lodging with
specific individuals during their stay.
Triple and Quad Accommodations will
require use of an upper bunk, accessible
by an easy-to-use ladder.
Hostel pricing is the cost for sharing a
room with up to three other participants.
The number of occupants per room (1-4)
will be determined based on the total
number of hostel guests each night. We do
not guarantee a room with your requested
roommate under this option, and you may be lodged in a
mixed gender room. Please do not
select this if you have participants under
18 in your group.
The Learning Center campus features classrooms, a dining hall,
a library, outdoor learning shelters, trails, a canoe dock and an
amphitheater. Our three guest lodges have shared gender-specific
bathrooms with showers and each room contains two sets of twin bunk
beds, desks, wardrobes and wireless internet connectivity. Facilities
and local trails are all ADA accessible and a personal mobility vehicle
is available. Delicious, healthy meals incorporating local and organic
foods are provided in our dining hall. If you have special dietary
requirements or food allergies, we will gladly attempt to accommodate
them with advance notice. Sorry, but we cannot accommodate pets.
