Kanuga is known for its comfortable accommodations. All the available accommodations options -- Main Lodge rooms, Cottage rooms and Guesthouse rooms -- are luxurious and beautifully maintained. We have done our best to provide some options with regard to price points; the main difference between options pertains to whether or not the given lodging option offers air conditioning.


The Main Lodge of 61 hotel-style rooms will house our Foray Registration Desk and some of our speakers' individual presentations. It features a large, winged dining hall, numerous meeting nooks, rocking-chair decks, a wonderfully whimsical gifts-and-sundries shop and even has its own library!


Please note the following with regard to air conditioning:

All of the Main Lodge rooms offer AC. 

None of the Cottage rooms offer AC. 

Some of the Guesthouse rooms offer AC.
