We recommend flying into Detroit International Airport (DTW).

For Lodging --
If you want a city vibe, Waldenwoods is located approximately 30min from Ann Arbor and 45min from Detroit. For a more suburban/small-town vibe, Howell and Brighton are each within 20min of the wedding site and surrounded by Metroparks, State Parks, and Recreation Areas.

Sunshine and Friendship Lodges at Waldenwoods

These two Lodging options will be available for select family members and wedding guests, on the grounds of Waldenwoods the night of the wedding.
The Bride and Groom will confirm specific reservations directly with guests.

At this time, please refrain from contacting Waldenwoods about these Lodging options, unless you have been requested to do so by Whit and Natalie.

Friendship Lodge (Check-in Sunday, July 2, 3pm; check-out Monday, July 3, 11am):

Whit and Natalie will assign rooms to guests.
The entire Friendship Lodge is reserved via Whit and Natalie's contract, so guests will simply reimburse the couple post-wedding. $89/per night per room
It has 19 rooms; "Communal style" so the entire lodge is ours only, and men's and women's bathrooms are on either floor.
Lodge is Historic, so no elevator or A/C (but there are fans in the rooms and A/C in the main lobby area).

Sunshine Lodge (Check-in Sunday, July 2, 3pm; check-out Monday, July 3, 11am):
Whit and Natalie will assign rooms to guests.
$121.90/per night including tax.
Waldenwoods takes your card information to hold the reservation, and then automatically charge it 48 hours prior to arrival (the 48-hour mark is also the cutoff for the guests canceling their room).
Lodge is Historic, so no elevator or A/C (but there are fans in the rooms and A/C in the main lobby area). As it is "Hotel style" and not a communal space like Friendship, the lobby area is a shared space that any guest of the hotel can use.
