Have a room/cabin to share/give up....

If anyone has a small "Willows" cabin that they do not need or have to cancel at some point, I have a room in the Lodge but would prefer a cabin. Please pm or e-mail me before you cancel so I can arrange to book it. Thank you!

Tripp

If you get that cabin and need someone to take your room, let me know.
I'm going to call today to see if anything is left... I just need room for 2 and don't really care where as long as it's not a tent!

Edit: I have a queen room in the lodge.

I need a cabin too if a second gets canceled! We want to bring Lola again and want to stay at Fontana, so we have to stay in a cabin (since the lodge wont take dogs). If you need to cancel your cabin and troppertrip has already been taken care of, please let me know. Thanks!

I'm starting a thread for those of you who may have a room or cabin to share with someone and want to connect with someone else.

So post if you do.

My wife and i have a 2 bedroom cabin on Welch Road that we may either share if our daughter can't come or give up completely. We won't know it gets much closer to the event.

-John

My boyfriend and I have a queen room in the lodge with 2 beds and will be looking for someone to share with closer to the event. I was going to open it up to my local club first, but I'll throw it out on here too.

So much for the *wait list* at Fontana. I thought I was on it for a 2 bedroom cabin. Has anyone ever had any luck with Fontana calling them or do I just need to call every couple of days?

Hey all - We're either looking for a couple of lodge rooms, or a 2 or 3 bedroom cabin (preferably 3-room) for MOTD. Give me a shout (PM or email) if you have one you need to get rid of. I really want is to be able to go this year :/

Well I have decided to skip yet another track event (cause it seems every single time I'm at the track, I remember it's MOTD and this year I don't want to miss it)

Soooo, if anyone has a extra room, I'd glad share expenses. I'm not sure if my wife will be with me. (not sure if it makes a difference, we'll share the same bed...lol)
If anyone has something, PM me.


Thanks,

Mark

I called Fontana late night and reserved a 2 bedroom. I think there were a few more left and a few 3 bedrooms. I talked with Mack.

Oh so we get to meet Oscar and Mark (and maybe Mrs Mark)! I am sure with all the good you have done the MINI community, you will easily find a place to stay.


I have a three bedroom cabin. Right now the plans are for my parents and uncle to join us at MOTD. My dad's work environment is pretty unstable so them joining us may fall through. If that is the case I will be scrambling to fill the other two rooms. I will post back if I do have openings.

Female Lodge Roommate Wanted

I have a double queen room in the lodge at Fontana. It is $99 a night and I would really like to split expenses with someone. Looking for a woman to share the room with. Must not snore or be totally obnoxious! I am checking with my local club first, but wanted to put this out there in case I have no takers at GSM.

This is our first time to the Dragon, we currently have a 2 Bedroom/2Bath Cabin but would be willing to trade for a room at the lodge. Not sure what Cabin it is but it's 199.00/night. If we can find a rm thats more affordable, that would be great since its only the 2 of us.

If you are bringing a four legged friend, you wont be able to stay at the Lodge at Fontana. Cabins are pet friendly with a $150 non-refundable deposit. The Microtel in Robbinsville is also pet friendly. Not many other places were when I was looking last year.

What kind of a dog do you have? We will be bringing Lola the Chihuahua again!

Much appreciated!

Yes that is high, especially considering Princess Lola will rarely walk inside the cabin (never know what she might try to eat off the floor ) and she is a thin coated Chihuahua so really no shedding for them to clean up after! But we want Lola there with us and we want to stay at Fontana so it is what we have to do.

Sorry--I havent gotten the hang of how to do multiple quotes in one post!
