Is there paticipant camping space at this faire?

[GoldenGoose]

There is extremely limited, extremely primitive camping for cast and contracted vendors/entertainers.

There's also a State campground nearby and a KOA campground about 15 minutes away.

And for people whose idea of camping includes a hot shower, air conditioning, and an ice bucket, there are a couple of hotels at the Thornburg exit off 95, and a bunches of them off exit 126, an exit another 8 minutes north.

There are also lodging listings on the varf.org website  under the Faire Info ---> Directions tabs.
