Yes, I have the one night at the Lakeside booked. We'll still need to look at another unless they seek their accommodations on their own.. Let me know when you talk to them Alan..
Thanks Dave |

The CC guys have been hard to get a hold of this week. You still have one room for friday night right? I think we should hold that for them, last year Thomas took off early sunday am so if they have a room at the lake for friday they may decide to start heading back saturday night and get a head start on the drive. Let you know as soon as I can. |

FWIW, we stayed at the GL INN last year, and I believe BKH did as well. Nice little place, maybe 3/4 of a mile from the campground. Not on the lake, but not too far away. We got into the Bayview this year, otherwise we would have stayed at the GL Inn again.

That suite is no longer available at the Bayview. I just reserved a room at the Dartford Inn, $85 per night. They still have rooms available.
Thanks, Ken |

81'Naut, Alan, do we still need a room for the Boarder or Tom?? Maybe they'd want to split the suite with Ken...???

I just called the Bayview. Everything is booked, including the two room suite. Did somebody already put that room on hold? Anyway, going to check other places.

What does a man have to do to hitch a ride? Maybe I'll need to invest in my own raft. I'm pretty sure I'll go ahead and reserve the suite. I really hope I can get somebody to split it with. $200 per night is expensive for one person. Ken |

Not to mention the swim back will be pretty tiring as well. |

Ken, pull the trigger on that Bayview room. You won't be able to find your car after returning from the sand bar, let alone drive to Ripon.

Ken If your not going to use that slip that comes with the room I could just pass out in the boat and then be ready for the mornings ski, three hours sleep in the boat ya that's the ticket.

Keith,
No problem, I'm leaning towards the two bedroom suite, just because it's closer to the lake. I'm avoiding driving after having a few beers in my system. Nine miles is slightly out of the way, but excellent room rate. Ken |

Ken,
My mistake again (working on too many things at once). I looked at my confirmation and my flight on Friday departs at 1:30 pm, arriving in Milwaukee at 3:30 pm. Thanks for the room offer. I still have to wait to see if my Dad is coming out this year. Can't commit to anything yet. Yes, that is the Best Western in Rippon where I stayed last year. -Keith |

Chris, "79Nautique"
Are you still looking for a place to stay?? Let me know if you're interested in the two room suite. One more person would be ideal, as Reid pointed out. Ken |

Reid,
I'm down with renting the suite at the Bayview. I'll reserve it if somebody wants to go in on it with me. Only rules are, no spooning, no blanket parties, no hot boxing, etc. My room is my room. Keith or anyone else who's still looking, please let me know ASAP. I'd prefer to be closer to the happenings, plus I don't want to drive after the festivities. Keith, I booked my flight out of Boston. I'm on the 11:10AM Midwest flight. Your flight must be booked, however, I'll see if I can be on stand-by for the earlier flight. I'm leaving early Monday AM. I just need a place to crash and a rental car. Ken |

You two guys need to get that 2 room suite at Bayview. Plus Chris was still hunting a non-spooning pad as well, so there's 3 to help absorb the $200/nite. And you'll be right in the thick. Don't worry about everyone else thinking you're mastercraft fans based off Ken's initial portrayal.

Ken,
Last year I stayed at the Best Western in Rippon ($65/night). It's about 9 miles away on a straight, open road (15 mins). Not the nicest place but they have wireless internet access so I can update the site. I'll probably stay there again this year. My bad earlier about my flight. Last year I flew Midwest - they have direct flights to Milwaukee from Boston ($223). I will be taking the 12:57 pm flight out of Logan on Friday. I need to get back early on Sunday so I'll be catching the 9:30 am flight back. -Keith |

Ken, It all depends on what you want to spend, but there are definite choices for sure.. Green Lake in is the closest to the Camp ground, followed by the McConnell Inn B&B.... Good luck !! Moj' |

Well Ken, I personally enjoyed your original brand. However, while the revision is much better on the eyes, I feel it may be an incorrect depiction of what actually surrounds the average MC fan. You can do better, or more accurate I'm willing to bet.

Guys,
Really, there are plenty of rooms either in hotels, B&B's, rental houses etc. Yes, the two prime hotels are taken for the most part, but there are places to stay all over the place. Check into: Green Lake Inn Oakwood Lodge (B&B) Dartford Inn McConnell Inn (B&B) Greenlake Cottages These are all hotels that are in town and most of them will have availability still this early.. Ken, now untwist your panties and look up these places on the Chamber site and start calling. Also, keep calling the Bayview and Lakside inn back from time to time. Both have constant cancellations.. Bayview has a 2 room suite that for $200 bucks, 4 guys could easily stay, right on the water for $50 bucks a piece... Let me know if you need any help.. Moj' |

Ken, Check this out below if you didn't see it already where I posted in on the GL update thread. Just rent a pop-up camper and the guy will deliver it to the campsite. Something like $180 for the weekend, and it sleeps 4 like yourself or 8 mastercraft fans. You won't need many camping supplies if any.
In regards to alternatve accomodations if Ken and others are still looking, I spoke to a super nice guy this afternoon named Dan from Fox Valley RV rentals in Appleton, WI which isn't too far away. He's still got ample pop-up and motorhome rentals available. He grew up on Green Lake and his parents are retired there. He said it was very possible that he could even deliver a unit or two to the Lake. Anyone interested can reach him at http://www.foxvalleyrv.com/, or 920-303-2741. |

If I were going solo, I'd rent a mini van, and sleep in it. Shower at the camp ground. BKH |

Hey Brownie needs a roomate I believe, And Ken I don't believe they have room at the bar for overnite stays. Goose Blind is the bar from what I remember it is next door to the motel Quinner is staying maybe it is called that but I thought it had a different name.
