Artist in Residence – Erin Whaling – Mom Knows Everything

We are so pleased to have hosted Erin Whaling as part of our ongoing Artist Residency Program. Erin is the creator of the phenomenal podcast Mom Knows Everything. Kids and adults alike will learn a thing or two from the curious questions and Erin’s in-depth answers.


“They say that the average kid can ask up to 300 questions per day. Being the know-it-all that I am, I’ve got answers. Listen in for my thoughts on questions that range from wildly philosophical to mildly gastrointestinal. And if it’s obvious that I don’t know what I’m talking about, I’ll give you the straight-up encyclopedia answer, too.”

 

During Erin Whaling’s Artist Residency at A Bear and Bison Inn, she was able to work on three episodes of Mom Knows Everything.


“My stay at A Bear and Bison Inn was so appreciated. Lonny was an absolute joy to have as a host, the food was phenomenal, and the setting worked perfectly for writing and recording.”

“Lonny even went so far as to help me get my flat tire fixed! Having this opportunity to focus on the work, away from the bustle of a busy household was an immeasurable gift.”

“My husband and I were married at A Bear and Bison Inn over 10 years ago, so this stay had wonderful nostalgia!”

I got married on April 28, 2025 at the Bear and Bison Inn, and it was the best decision I could’ve made. We had 64 guests and we stayed two nights at the Inn. My number one compliment to this venue is the staff. Right from the beginning Lonny was a very responsive with emails and helping guide me through wedding planning. There were no hidden fees and everything was very professional and thought out. The day of the rehearsal dinner, check-in was smooth and Brooke and Barbara immediately started setting up all the little details I had planned. The service at the Inn was just incredible and they were so nice and reassuring. The staff were hands down one of the highlights of my wedding. The food was a 10/10 and everyone loved our tapas style dinner the day of the wedding. I was so impressed how efficiently food was distributed to everyone and how guests with dietary restrictions were provided for.

Our bartender was fantastic and even gave us tips on the best spots for pictures. The hot tub was a great feature and all the rooms were beautiful. BREAKFAST was unreal both days, and guests commented on how wonderful the whole space was. I can’t recommend this place enough. Definitely a cozy space that felt like I was getting married in a cabin tucked away in the mountains. Perfect for smaller intimate weddings. This venue is VERY experienced with what they do and can guide you to decisions that work best for everyone!
