Ok, I'm still working on this but it's looking like I'm the only Hotel guy for that trip and I was hoping to split the accomodations with someone.
I found a nice 2 bedroom place about 2.5 miles from the campground CHong and EZ-Dog are staying at that's not completely out of th erealm of my doing it solo but is on the higher side of what I usually end up with.

So at this point I'm still not sure if I'm going to be able to do this trip. I'm working on it and hoping too but just have to dot all the i's and cross the t's.

There's o cabins at the campground unfortunetly.

I did notice 1 interesting "limit" to the campground you've chosen and not sure how enforced it is. Says ONE vehicle per spot. Might want to verify that means one car and the bikes don't count just to be safe.

Hi,
Called today . They said bike(s) and one vehicle is not a problem.

I figured it would be but better that you have checked and know for sure.

Camp grounds I talked to were bike friendly.
I think riders represent a fare amount of business for them .

Looks like possibly only 7 of us attending at best from Bike Dog Biker Forum.

Did you ever hear back from Roadie (Eric)? I seen on FB his Indian looked like it dropped a valve. Looked bad. But he still has his Dads chopper…

 

[Chong]

I'm getting a list of potential destinations up soon .

 

[EZ Dog]

I have not heard back from Eric. The news just scares the shit out of me since I have one also.

I'm alive, sorry not getting back. Life is busy right now. And yes my Indian is dead and my chopper is giving me a fit. Little bitch.

Anyway, all my plans are up in the air right now. Even my normal trips. Stay tuned.

OK,
Have camp ground in Larel Springs that can get us in , see link below .

They can handle 40' toy haulers.

I have made my reservation .. going in Thursday the 23rd, checking out Memorial day the 27th .

It was $65+tax roughly per nite for 30Amp site. She said 40' sites are 50amp only.

They said they will try to keep us close together.

You need too make reservations asap due to holiday weekend if you want to be at the same camp ground .

Online registration has no place for comments. When they call back tell them your in the Ken Bennett party .

EZ Dog is also registering there .

There was an open 50 amp site between Chong and I when I registered at Raccoon Holler.

Shouldn’t you two be separated by a few more spaces than that . I see stories coming from this arrangement.
