Getting here
Travel Details
We live just off highway 200, in between Trout Creek and Thompson Falls (about 15min drive to each Main Street).
Either town would be great to stay in! Thompson Falls is the 'larger' more touristy town, with a grocery store; Trout Creek is the smaller town, and would be about a 30minute drive to Thompson Falls Main Street.
Camping on the property is an option - for your entire visit or just for the wedding night and you book elsewhere around it. There are also more camp spots and Airbnbs/VRBOs than I listed.
How to get here
Missoula Airport - about a 2hr drive to our house (stop at Garden of One Thousand Buddhas in Arlee!).
Spokane Airport - about a 2hr 45min drive to our house (plus the time change!).
About a 7hr drive from Seattle area. (Stop at Silverwood Theme Park?!)
Amtrak?!

Call and say you would like a blocked room!
