Ask about other spaces if you want to use more of the campus. We will give you space but can come help if you need us. This listing only includes the Tyson Lodge. It does not include the event hall or pavilion, so this listing does not include access to a full kitchen. Please inquire if you would like to rent an additional apartment or the Neaville house, all of which include full kitchens. Other things to note Wifi is available on campus, but does not usually work in the lodges. There are areas around campus where you can sit to access wifi. Fires are permitted ONLY in the fire pit at the Lewis Pavilion. Upon request, we provide you with complementary wood for one fire. If you would like to purchase more wood, it is $5 per bundle. We have had a very dry year, so please pay extra attention to stray sparks and be sure that the fire does not leave the fire pit. Please do not attempt to move hot coals.
