Where to stay

A room block is held for us at the Harraseeket Inn in Freeport. Camping cabins near the venue are also available.

Harraseeket Inn

Freeport, ME · Room block available · Breakfast included

Book your room →

To ensure you can book successfully, please use one of these options:

Option 1 (Recommended): Book online using the special room block link above.

Option 2: If you'd rather call the hotel, you'll first reach an AI reservation assistant that sounds very much like a person. Ask to be connected to a human, the front desk, or the reservations team, and a staff member will be able to access our room block and make your reservation.

If you don't take one of these steps, the system will incorrectly tell you the hotel is sold out.

If you experience any difficulty booking your room, let us know right away so we can work directly with the hotel to get your reservation taken care of.

Camping cabins nearby

An option close to the venue for anyone who'd rather camp than stay at the inn. More details coming soon.
