When Chris came across Nome Schoolhouse, which had been closed since 1970, she just knew she had to breathe new life into it. She thoughtfully restored the building, reopening it in 2021 as a boutique hotel, fiber arts retreat center, and event space. Now, this piece of history is a joyous space where love, inspiration, creativity, and community are shared.

My wedding at the Nome Schoolhouse was absolutely perfect in every way. The Schoolhouse is truly a unique and cozy setting to host your wedding. An added plus is they are different...
in the best way from what everyone else is doing! We booked the full weekend and could not have been happier. The reception in the gym and our food was wonderful + having all our closest family and friends upstairs in their 11 rooms the entire weekend was so special.
