    I've called several times today too. They're either tired of the phone ringing today or there isn't anyone in this afternoon. I still need to reserve my campsite.

    Looks like Comfort Suites or Marriott is only 7 miles, but I'd rather crawl back to a cabin than try to get a ride to a room unless UBER or such will go out there late

    Uber will go, but cell service is spotty at best

    There are pluses and minuses either way.  After 8pm the gate to the park is closed.  You can still open it but I think it’s a pretty long walk from the cabins. 

    Personally my advice to people is to stay on site if they can manage it.

    Great tent site. We were thinking about tenting it ourselves this year, love tent camping, but we need refrigerator storage, and a work space away from the drunken rain dances around the fire. Excuse me, the kid friendly drunken rain dance around the fire.

    There is RV Share. Maybe a couple of guys could split one. I stayed in the cabins twice. First time and last time. 
    On the list...Why......????
    In my opinion, they are run down and nasty. No running water. No way my wife would be down for spending days in one.  Renting a camper is a better option. Personally, We just stay at the Courtyard. We’ve got enough points that it’s always free.  

    Oh I know where I am staying.

    Set one of these up as the additional tent. :)

    Good to hear there's going to be solid entertainment nearby.

  • Sounds awesome and I would love to go. But that is only two weeks after we get back from Italy. I'm not sure we can afford (both financially and physically) another trip so soon.

    I appreciate it and I can say my sentiment is the same for you. There are quite a few of you lunatics I'm excited to meet face to face.

    I may take you up on that if the sites are booked. I'll let you know once I talk to the folks tomorrow. They were closed when I called a while ago.

    So there is a number ending in 00 and one in 08, I assumed the 08 was the campground and left a message there ...is the 00 the correct one, sounded more like the park concessions
