Accomodations
If you are staying overnight at Fertile Ground Gathering, you will be assigned to a rustic cabin in one of the four cabin clusters in the campsite. Parties who register together are automatically assigned to their own private cabin. We never assign more than one party to a single cabin unless both parties specifically request to be housed together.
There are 2, 4 and 6 bed cabins available to suit most every group size.
Each cabin cluster also has a shared restroom facility with hot and cold running water, shower stalls and flush toilets. Additionally, there is one central restroom cabin in the campground separated into Male and Female sections for those who wish for a bit more privacy. Each cabin cluster also has a craft lodge where workshops are held.
The rustic cabins are cozy and add to the experience of the Gathering. There are 2, 4, and 6 bed cabins, all of which include electrical outlets, indoor lighting, and porch lights.
Each cabin has mattresses on bed frames. This particular cabin sleeps 4.
The Feast Hall is the hub of the Gathering. Aside from meals, rituals, and performances, this is the place where folks gather to spend time together between meals, workshops, and other activities. When it's cool out, we even keep the fire going in the fireplace.
