Question

Where should I stay?

Answer

The venue (Star Meadows Ranch) includes on-site lodging and we would love for everybody to stay with us on-site. There are a variety of private rooms, wall tents, double queen rooms, A-frame cabins (for 6 people) and bunk rooms. Please refer to starmeadowsranch.com for photos of the lodging options. A couple rooms have private bathrooms, but the majority have shared bathrooms. There are 6 kitchens on site (plus an additional industrial kitchen for the caterers). We understand that it is very expensive to stay in Whitefish so we're offering this on-site lodging as a cheaper and more connected accommodation. The cost for on-site lodging is $125/person for the entire weekend (includes Friday and Saturday night). If you are staying in a bunk room (each bunk room sleeps 12 people), your cost will only be $100/person for the entire weekend. There will also be a limited number of camping sites (tent or camper) which are $25/site. There will be no cost for kids. If you would prefer more private accommodations, there are a variety of Airbnbs and hotels in the Whitefish area.
