Will I share a bed with someone I don’t know?We added tiered options for sleeping arrangements - you get to choose. There are three options for sleeping preferences ("personal camper," “shared/book together” and “solo”) and three kinds of beds (full futon, full bed, queen). Our most affordable option, the "personal camper" option is for those coming with their van, trailer, RV, truck bed camper, etc. Depending on the length of your camper, you can park in one of the cabin driveways or in the camping area, with access to the public restrooms/showers. The group cabin accommodation fee is replaced by camp accommodation fee charged by Summer Lake Hot Springs, factored into the price. The “shared/book together” option is for those who are booking with another person or for those who will share a bed with another retreat attendee. If you are booking this option for two people please keep in mind that each person will book separately. When booking for the second person please choose the same sleeping option. The “solo” option is for those who would like the bed to themselves. Any questions? Reach out to us!
