Looking for room at Fontana

I had to give up my room for MOTD 07 and called today to look for one for 2008 and they are booked , so now I am looking for someone who can't use their reservation for 2008. I am sure soon I will be first on a list of many...

Incase anyone has anything available my contact info is:

Here's how bad I got MOTD fever: I'm actually having dreams about MOTD6 already.

Two nights ago I dreamed that we checked into our cabin (we luckily have a reservation) and the thing was like the size of the lobby of the Wilderness Lodge at Disney (yeah, like that's gonna happen)... I said "Oh God - we're gonna have like 200 people crashing in here..."

Fontana needs to get off their duffs and build more cabins!

Heck, they outta setup "temporary" cabins - or great big tents with floors and cot space and restroom trailers. Or pull in a bunch of FEMA-style trailers. Or something...

Well, just remember that lots of folks end up releasing their reservations when stuff happens and they cannot attend MOTD. I think it's a little early to be worried about this...

There's an idea... find a huge lot where those FEMA trailers are parked, arrange 'em just right, and you have a driving course with it's own accomodations.

Maybe it would be a good idea to have a thread that is sort of a waiting list for people who are looking for rooms/cabins. One that is basically a list of Names and what they are looking for without argueing over what should or shouldn't have occurred in regards to Fontana's room policy.

People can get on Fontana's waitlist. And once on the list, periodic phone calls to check on their status is a good idea.

I will most likely have extra rooms in one of my 2 three bedroom cabins. I'll post back here when I have better confirmation of what I know is available.

I'm on a waiting list at Fontana too. When I inquired about what # I was on the list, the lady said "It's a long list"... Sounds promising!!
Anyways, I'm up for camping too, if I have to go that route. I guess I should have asked about that... Oops. Will call back.

We have a "rustic" 2 or 3 bedroom cabin. So I'm sure we'll have some space available but it's way too early to worry about that yet. All you roomless MINIacs get back with me in January or so.
