Our Ft. Lewis hosts offer both incredibly inexpensive lodging and uncommonly tasty on-site meals, and there’s no shortage of nearby eating, lodging and camping opportunities off-site.
Food and lodging choices are the responsibility of attendees and are not included with the Confluence ticket.
Check out the on-site options, google the many alternatives, then make your decision as to how you want to plan for your meals and sleep while in the area.
On-Site Lodging
Ft. Lewis College is a laid-back campus a 10 minute drive above the mountain town, with lovely native landscaping and very few Summer students. The school offers some sparse but super affordable dorm rooms that prove to be even cheaper when they’re shared!
The primary advantage of Ft. Lewis lodging, of course, is being able to sleep just a short walk from the classrooms, cafeteria, kid’s village and Healer’s Market, making it possible to easily get to your morning and other classes on time.
You can review all their lodging options as well as reserve your room and meals plan in advance by going to their online
