Book With Us

Closed for the winter.

Guided trips are booking now.

All other reservations open February 1, 2025.

Our first full day of operations will be June 1, 2025. SoBo Special guests may arrive May 31st and Super SoBo Special guests may arrive May 30th. All others may arrive starting June 1st.

We strongly recommend not attempting a SoBo thru-hike prior to June 1st and believe the optimum time to start is June 15th - July 15th.
