We have nailed down the Smoky Mountain Brewery in Gatlinburg for the Fest 2016 Booze & Crawl: http://tinyurl.com/h3rhveg

 

Now checking ratings and getting group rates for motels in the immediate area. October is the busiest month of the year in Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge and so room rates are the highest. Nonetheless, we've negotiated some good prices including $100 a night at a four-star. Hope to announce the motel by next week. There will be a primary motel where we'll have 25 rooms available and possibly more if you get reservations in soon, and, a secondary where we'll also have negotiated lower rates for those who wish to wait until later in the year to reserve.

 

Stay tuned; more to come!!!

River Terrace is .5 miles away...11 minutes walking from Smoky Mountain Brewery in Gatlinburg....

They have a trolley system in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge that stops at all of the attractions and goes between the two towns. So....we can drink as much as we want. :-) I'm looking at cabins close by. I looked into this a couple of years ago and found some that would rent blocks of cabins and there's lots of very large cabins that sleep a ton of people. I'm an Idiot so I can't remember the names of those places. Not sure that my nerves can take being in the same house with some people. Lol. I love you, Hxtr, but you get on my nerves! Pigeon Forge has a lot more cabins but I'm trying to find places in Gatlinburg that's not in top of the mountain. I don't want your drunk butts trying to walk up the stairs to those! :-D

We need someone who has attended other Fests to plan activities. Typical are Go Karts, a gun range, paintball, rope course, etc. and you'll find those at Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge. But there's much, much more and folks might like something different.

   Who wants to take charge of this?

What day(s) are everyone going?

I know we've got the official dates but some people show sooner and/or stay later always at them.

 

Anyone leaving Monday instead of Sunday for example or planning to show up wed night?

 

Also, keep in mind that you're free to share rooms if you dare to split cost. After all, none of us plan to be in the hotel room for anything beyond sleep, unless we find some companion friends hah.

 

That I may change my view on that after the EU fest depending how bad @@GeForce is sharing with, I might be too afraid to close my eyes to sleep in fear of what he might try hah.

Folks...

 

   First motel bombed with incorrect information given by Choice Hotels. But we've done much, much better.

 

   How about across the street from the Smoky Mt. Brewery where we're going to get trashed Saturday night? And how about $287.48, out the door, for three nights? You get smashed, and walk 20 feet to your bed.

 

   The motel is the Quality Inn Creekside, at 125 Leconte Creek Rd., Gatlinburg, 37738. As per the map below, it's right beside the bar. It's a 4-star by Trip Advisor.

 

   Here are the rates: night of Oct. 20 is $74.99; next two nights are $89.99 for a total of $287.48 including tax for Oct. 20-24. If you wish to arrive earlier that week, it will be $74.99 for each night before Thursday, and the same rate should you choose to stay an extra night on Sunday and not leave until Monday.

 

   To reserve, call the motel at 865-436-4865, and tell them you're reserving at the XI rate for that weekend.

 

   They've booked a block of 40 rooms. But we have until Sept. 17 to get one guaranteed, and at that rate. After Sept. 17, you're on your own.

 

   Best bet: don't wait. Book it now. You won't be charged until you check in.
