People come to ScrapFest from all over, and we’ve been getting requests for recommendations on places to stay and things to do!
Places To Stay
Cozy Koi Bed & Breakfast
The Cozy Koi B&B is right near Old Town Lansing, with eight uniquely decorated guestrooms and antique furnishings throughout the B&B. They also have a koi sculpture from ScrapFest (made by team Artistic Iron) on their property! Here’s a link to them on Google Maps.

Many thanks to Hyatt House Lansing East, which has provided us with a block of rooms at a discounted price at AC Hotel Lansing University Area and Hyatt House Lansing East – University Area.

Airbnb
Airbnb is a great option. Here’s an example search during the weekend of ScrapFest.
Things To Do
Right in the heart of Old Town, Urban Beat has live music almost every night. Here’s a link to their events page on their website.
There are a ton of great restaurants and bars in Old Town Lansing, and Old Town is also a Social District, which means you can order food and drinks in participating establishments and walk around within the Social District borders. You can do this during ScrapFest as well! More info on this here.
