Folks... I'm finding that there are several options that we might want to consider before settling down on where to stay. Please let me know your thoughts. I'm trying to get the best rates and still be comfortable and keep everyone close by so we can get together easy.
Here is a new link Pine Mountain Georgia (http://pinemountain.org)
I called Davis Inn and they say they can give us special group rates of $70.00 per night if we have 10 rooms double occupancy, adults only. Davis Inn is an older Inn, but still nice. You can see part of it at Davis Inn (http://www.davisinn.com/)
I called Days Inn which is a new motel and they can give us special rates by booking 5 rooms for five days at $69.00 double occupancy. A Days Inn is a Days Inn... but look, you are not comming to see Days Inn, you will just be sleeping there. Same idea as staying at Davis Inn.
White Columns (http://www.whitecolumns-ga.com) Extra Clean rooms.... $60.00 per night, king, queen, double. Smoking/non-smoking. Small motel...but highly recommended.
Remember, at some of these places, you can get discount rates by using AARP or other travel discounts. Anybody know of some discounts available I don't know of? I may ride over and check out witht he Chamber of Commerce and see what they can help us with. I also might check with the Chamber and see if we can have a mini art show somewhere. This might be a good sale opportunitie.
I'd like to keep us all in three places so we can keep up with each other easier.
1. Blackberry Ridge..... You have to have an Aero Portable Bed for the floor space available.... but hey.... it won't be all that bad.
2. A Motel/Inn somewhere close to the entrance of Callaway Gardens.
3. FDR Camp grounds
If you have signed up for the Mountain Inn at Callaway Gardens tenatively at $139.00 per night, and would like to consider Davis Inn or Days Inn at $70.00 + your $20.00 Callaway guest pass let me know and I'll work on getting the group to move to Davis Inn or Days Inn... which ever works best for everyone.
We have two weeks to hash all this out. Think and let me know your thoughts or if you have other ideas.
