The group rate is good for reservations made through May 17, 2023, after which attendees will be extended best available rate.  Reservations may be cancelled up to 24 hours prior to check-in without losing first night's deposit. 


    There are other hotels within a few miles of The Woodlands Resort. For your convenience, we've provided a map below with hotel listings.  Zoom in and click on a specific hotel to check pricing for June 8 through June 11.

  • The Woodlands Resort Standby List

    02 May 2023 12:45 PM | Marie Littlejohn-Dunn (Administrator)

    As some of you are aware, our room block at the reunion hotel is very full, but cancellations are trickling in. If you would like to be on a standby list for rooms at The Woodlands Resort, please sign up for the The Woodlands Resort Standby List. As rooms become available at The Woodlands Resort, we will offer them to reunion registrants in the order in which they have signed up for the standby list.


    As there are no guarantees we can accommodate everyone on the standby list, we recommend you make alternative arrangements for your stay which can be canceled if/when a room becomes available at The Woodlands Resort. We have a group rate at the Drury Inn & Suites The Woodlands, or book with another nearby hotel..
