Try the Deals Gap Motorcycle Resort. They are right at the dragon and about 15 min from Fontana Village. I was late booking and was able to find a room there last week.

Just as an FYI - they aren't open right now, so you have to leave a message. They called me back the following day and took my reservation.

We are staying in Robbinsville at the Phillips Motel.
I made my reservations on Sunday and they still had rooms.
I couldn't find anything closer to Fontana Village.

$50 for a single w/ 1 queen bed
$60 for a double w/ 2 queen beds.

Good Luck!

22 miles is what I was told by the reservation peeps at Fontana Village.
They told me that the next closest place, after Robbinsville,was Bryson City, about 35 miles.
Since I found a place at Robbinsville, I didn't look any further.

Just a friendly suggestion FYI.
I understand that you have already put some time into this, but if you are really serious about going to MOTD, it would probably be a good idea to jump on finding reservations ASAP.
The VW New Beetle club will be there the same weekend, and they will be based in Bryson City.
There aren't nearly as many of them, but I hear that Bryson City is booking up pretty fast with Bugs.

I hope this helps.
This is my first MOTD too.
I also hope that you decide to come.

Good Luck!

I should have some extra room, might have to use a sleeping bag on the floor though. I have a house on 28 not too far from Fontana.

Give the Tuskegee motel, they are about 15 spirited minutes from Fontana. Check the MOTD page to find their number and see if they have any openings.
