FAQ
What are the lodging options?
Camping On Site
We’ve got room for 8-10 tents on site and LOTS of cedar trees to hang hammocks from.
AirBnB Rentals Nearby
We are working with some nearby cabin renters to find a cabin or two for people to share who prefer less rustic digs. When you register, let us know if you want to be put on this list!
Seedy Motel
There are several seedy motels in Carthage and Smithville that can house you. We will shoot you a list after you register.
What is your cancellation policy
Your deposit is nonrefundable and it holds your spot.
Can I bring my dog?
No. We have livestock and a grumpy old protective dog. Your dog is not safe here – or my dog is not. Either way, we simply can’t have other people’s dogs on the property.
What about bringing children?
This workshop is not appropriate for children under 14. This property is not designed for small children to be safe unless they are constantly supervised. You’re not going to want to do that.
There will be alcoholic beverages consumed at this event, probably some foul language and so forth, so make sure you are comfortable with your teen being around this group if you choose to bring them.
Last time we allowed children at an event, they broke some really expensive stuff including my coffee roaster by pouring water into it.
