We have two different types of affordable housing for rent: Dorms and semi-private hotel style rooms.

For all rooms, you must bring your own linens/pillows/towels. You must also bring a HEAVY comforter with you for your top warmth. Additionally, we cannot determine whether you will have a twin or double bed until you arrive, so we recommend that you bring a sleeping bag and then purchase sheets after you arrive.

Housing at one of our lodges is a privilege and not a right or condition of employment. For the safety and well-being of all, residents must adhere to the housing regulations, and policies & procedures.
