Lodging Option 1 -- for Option 2, read below!

IBC ‘23 will take place at the Huntsman Marine Center and Aquarium with participant housing at Anderson House, a manse that is a step back in time. Built in the 1930’s by a wealthy railroad magnate and surrounded by beautiful, peaceful grounds, it is where scientists conducting research at the Aquarium or Hunstman Marine Center stay.

The manse has group dining facilities and meeting spaces and is within walking distance of the Aquarium, town and shorelines.

We were able to reserve 19 rooms, each with a private bath, two double beds, and an alarm clock/radio. There is no TV, but there is internet service. We have also been told that Verizon gets the best cell service in the area but you can always be reached through the main office number.

There are also a number of other lodging options near the Conference site, including hotels and Air BnB's. Just Google ‘lodging in St. Andrews by-the Sea.’

(NOTE: Off campus lodgers will not be able to join us for daily breakfast but can partake in all other meals with the group.)
