FAQs

Question

Parking

Answer

There is parking on site at the barn for all events.

Question

Transportation

Answer

There will be a shuttle to and from Smuggs and to and from Burlington. Ubers/Lyfts are sparse near the venue and are not a reliable option. Please make a plan to have a designated driver if you anticipate staying somewhere other than Smuggs or Burlington and reach out if there are concerns. We have a lot of non-drinkers who may be able to do some shuttling around Saturday night. Cars can be left at Boyden overnight if needed.

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Our invites say by July 3rd, but due to the delay in getting those in the mail we will extend the deadline to August 3rd.

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

When you enter your name on the RSVP page, if it says your name "and Guest", we have planned on you bringing a date. If you do not see "and Guest" and you think we have made a mistake, please reach out to Oona or Gordon.

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

We have a discount code at Smugglers Notch (please see "travel" page) up the road and will provide a shuttle to and from the venue (Saturday only). There are several nice-looking airbnbs in the area. If you prefer to stay in Burlington, we do not have any specific recommendations but there are several hotels at various price points. If we have a large group staying in Burlington, we will provide a bus to and from the venue on Saturday. Hotels and airbnbs in Stowe will book out early with leaf-peepers and will be more expensive than Cambridge or Burlington.
