Jazz Camp West Housing
ON-SITE Housing & Camping
Whether you stay on-site or commute each day, tuition for all campers comes with the complete Jazz Camp West program along with three daily meals and late night desserts. The tuition for on-site campers also includes overnight lodging or camping. Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free meals are available upon request. All cabins are shared with approximately six-eight people, and separated male/female. If there is enough interest, we can designate a gender inclusive cabin. Please email our office at info@livingjazz.org to request this cabin. All cabins are on a first-come, first-served basis.
If you sign up for a Double Room at Siden or Glamping, you will need to know (in advance) who you want to/plan to room with during your stay. Living Jazz does not coordinate finding and confirming a roommate for your double space
There are two types of on-site cabins. Sarah Vaughan cabins have indoor bathrooms and showers. Thelonius Monk cabins use central bathrooms close by. For those interested in camping, Jazz Camp provides different options:
Glamping (family size tents set up for you in advance)
Camping (you bring your own gear)
Rent-a-Tent (we rent gear for you and you set it up when you arrive).
RV or Van- You are also welcome to bring your own RV or Van.
We also offer a hotel quality option located within a 5 minute drive off-site at Redwood Glen Camp. These are hotel quality rooms with bathrooms and showers. This accommodation fills up immediately, but we do keep a wait list.
Please Note: Unless accompanied by a parent or guardian, all minors will be housed in a Thelonius Monk cabin with a vetted counselor.
Living Jazz offers an Early Bird Discount of $100 if tuition is paid in full by 3/1/26
