2talltim Posted November 17, 2013 Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 (edited) There is no camping, but there are plenty of rooms at the Tuskeegee motel just down the road. It's my favorite place to stay when I'm down in the area. There is gas on site and a small convenience store. They have wi fi and cable. No alcohol sold there though. Rooms are cheap too. Www.tuskeegeemotel.comThat's right next to the cabin I was talking about maybe a mile away Edited November 17, 2013 by 2talltim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollnhot Posted November 17, 2013 Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 Stayed at Iron Horse a few years ago, breakfast only, no beer, lots of douchey pirate wannabe's. I'm with MT on this Fontana sounds good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MidgetTodd Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Plus we watched as the maid service spent literally less than10 min to service a 2bedroom cabin when one in our group checked out last time. So you know they don't clean them properlyThat was my cabin. Don't judge I always clean up the DNA left behind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dustinsn3485 Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Tuskeegee is a bad idea. It's not the place to throw a party. The typical guest prefers quiet and it's too small to separate noise from sleep. Trust me.There is some truth to that, however my thought behind that was just to rent the whole place out...I believe the group is big enough to do that.On that note and with more thought, there is no firepit nor some of the other amenities this group typically prefers. It is a good location, but maybe not the best location. Though a good fallback if nothing else was working out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pokey Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Other options to think about, I am quite the fan of Hunts Moto Lodge and I stayed at the other as well when they were the Cherohala Moto Resort. http://www.cycleresort.com/ http://www.huntslodge.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earache Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 .... Also, it can no way house all of OhioRiders. If as many show this year as last, they're won't be enough rooms.... They only have about 15 rooms and only one of those has more than 2 beds in it. No way the Crisps would put up with any noise after dark , either. I'm in and will stay in Alcoa at a hotel like I did last year. But will be there bright and early for riding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRMN8TR Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Had a good time last year (my first trip to the Gap) and I plan on making it again this year. Fontana was fine for me, but my a/c worked and the refridgerator kept my beer cold. Give me a place to pass out at night and somewhere to cook bacon in the morning and I'll be happy. Wherever the group/organizers decide to stay will be fine by me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

max power Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 A fire pit is a must-have. Fontana has gotten worse every year that we've stayed there. If we go back this year, there might not be any roofs on the cabins.I think what we're looking for is a resort that we can take over and have the whole thing to ourselves. No more competing for fire pits etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turnone Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Good place in Robbinsville. Has cabins, motel rooms. Pretty clean overall and dirt cheap. Has fire pits. UP always stays there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 I didn't like Fontana but I will say this. My wife had red bumps on her legs when we got back. I didn't have any and neither did out cabin mates. Anyways, I called them and their manager put said she would take the cabin off their available units and have a pest control company come look at it. After a few days, my wife's bumps went away and we chalked it up as a mild water irritation. Well, 1 month later, I got a call from them saying the cabin had come up clean and they apologized for any issues as a result of them. Now, that's pretty good customer care if in fact they kept it unavailable till after the specimen samples came back negative. A month is a long time... But with what happened to Casper and his cabin, I say screw it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2talltim Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 (edited) People who sit by a fire complaining about lack of AC make me giggleCabin being 80 plus degrees in the middle if the day and 90 % humidity at night when you get back from a ride didn't make me giggle. I'll admit this year it wasn't as hot as previous years but if it would have been it would have really sucked Edited November 18, 2013 by 2talltim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollnhot Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 Punkin Center is a little rougher the cabins have AC, the owners are cool. A few years ago Jody the owner told us we dont give a fuck how you entertain yourselfs, just drag all the bodies up in the woods by sunup. And they have beer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
