FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Please RSVP by April 18th, 2026!

Question

What kind of shoes should I wear?

Question

What’s the weather like in late May?

Question

Can I bring a plus-one?

Your invitation will indicate if a plus-one is included. If you’re unsure, feel free to reach out and ask—we're happy to clarify!

Answer

Cell service can be spotty or nonexistent depending on your carrier. Wi-Fi is available in the lodge and common areas, but may not be super fast—consider this part of the unplugged, mountain charm!

Question

Can I explore Peaks of Otter while I’m there?

Answer

Absolutely! Peaks of Otter has hiking trails, a lake, and gorgeous views to explore. If you have extra time, we encourage you to enjoy the area—but keep in mind cell service is limited, so plan ahead with maps or trail info.

Can I camp?

Answer

While Peaks of Otter Lodge doesn’t allow camping, there are nearby campgrounds along the Blue Ridge Parkway. If you’re interested, we can point you toward local options.
