Maya grew up in Michigan, but not in this part of the state. So other than details about the camp property which we’ve visited in person, the rest of these options are just from online research about the South Bend and Notre Dame area which are about 30-40 minutes from the wedding venue and Kalamazoo Michigan which is just shy of an hour from the wedding venue - remember, the wedding is in Michigan just north of the border with Indiana, hence why most of the accommodations and the things on this list below are in South Bend Indiana.
As we stated on the Accommodations/Lodging page - The wedding is at a summer camp in it’s off season. We have the entire property to ourselves for the whole weekend(including the commercial kitchen, lodge, dining hall, grounds and outdoor spaces), Thursday night through Sunday afternoon! No matter where you end up staying for the weekend, you are invited to come to the camp and enjoy this wonderful nature retreat in the woods and relax on the grounds and join in on any fun activities we’re doing with our wedding party. There will be no forced bonding, though we will be having group activities like board and tabletop games, campfire pow wows and sing alongs and watching movies and maybe even karaoke in the lodge - people are free and welcome to explore and enjoy quiet private time and play on the entire property for the weekend!
