Travel Note
Hotels: The two other nicer hotels in town are the Hotel Leo in Downtown Bellingham and the Chrysalis Inn and Spa (a Hilton) right on the water between Fairhaven (2 minute walk) and Bellingham (20 minute walk). There are a number of chain hotels near the airport as well that are only 15 minutes to the venue and a few smaller hotels around town that are cheaper. Airbnb: Feel free to get in touch if you have questions on locations etc. Van/ Car dwellers and Campers: If you're not into Larabee or they are all booked up give Hailey a call (303-503-4016) and I've got a few options for ya :) Please feel free to reach out if you have questions about any other option you are looking into.
