Accommodation

You must book your own accommodation separate from the Workshop fee.

Please book your accommodation directly with the venue (Lake Junaluska Conference & Retreat Center) as they are offering us a discounted group rate through this reservation link:

→ https://www.reseze.net/servlet/SendPage?hotelid=1593&skipfirstpage=true&page=187432

There are two different accommodation types:

• The Terrace Hotel - a contemporary hotel close to the lake.

• Lake Junaluska Apartments - a comfortable, economical solution. Most apartments have efficiency kitchenettes. Note that Wi-Fi is not available.

Rates displayed are for each room/apartment. You can choose to share accommodation to split costs or stay by yourself. Participants wishing to share a room with a roommate are responsible to make that arrangement on their own.

A deposit fee equivalent to one night, charged to a credit card, will hold your room/apartment. The Conference Center will only accept one credit card for a room charge. Roommates will work out the split bill with each other. The full amount will not be charged until June 2025.

Accommodation is limited in number. First come will get first choice.

You can also call Lake Junaluska Reservations directly at 800-222-4930 but please make sure to let them know that you are booking accommodation for the tai chi workshop so you can get the discounted group rate.
