Wow... Looks like the MoM cabin has cable TV AND the royal wedding coverage starts at 4 AM on Friday!!!! Boys, get your tiaras out and I'll bring tea and crumpets.

 

Are you still handing out those little tent air fresheners to all of your buddies? You know... The ones that look and smell like a strip of bacon?

 

the village does have a small general store with some of basic necessities. I did called Fontana and they said they include plates and cups (usually service for 4 in a two bedroom and service for 6 in a 3 bedroom) Towels are definetely include. She was pretty sure that paper towels and some dish soap was included as well. No blow dyers are in the cabins. Hope that helps.

 

Food.

 

They also come with a large fridge that you must fill with beer yourself.:frown2::nonod:

:beer

We stayed in the 'camp'n cabins' and the basic is there.. If they have no pots and pans ( in the older cabins) we just run to town and hit the shelter stores and buy what we need.. then toss it on the way out.. or not!

If you want the 'Ritz' that is there also.. just break out the wallet!!

Just me.................................

Thumper

 

They have towels... they're just ok and not real big so we bring our own. We always get extra tp and food at the grocery store in Robbinsville to save on packing supplies in an already full car. No tuppaware or the like so we ended up using zip lock baggies alot.

 

Basic pot, pans, flatware, glassware, kitchen utensils and dishes will be in your cabin. You have a 3 BR, so there should be at least enough for 6.
There should also be a coffee maker, a toaster, and a blender.
Just an FYI....generally, cleaning supplies aren't included with the cabins. Here's what I take:
Clorox wipes
a couple of sponges...one for surfaces, one for doing dishes
dish soap...Fontana's sporadic about supplying this, and I have a spaghetti dinner to clean up after, so I take my own.
a small dust pan and broom
You also might want to take ant traps..we had a serious invasion last year even though we kept the kitchen very clean.
I take my own bath towels and TP...in both cases, the ones the Fontana supplies are thin.
Items at the General Store are very pricey.....I only buy there in a pinch.
In years past, the pool was open but rarely have I experienced weather really hot enough to use it. Besides, that pool water will be freezing!

 

Bring Baby Wipes.

 

there will be a microwave

 

Wow, those cabins sound like so much fun, I'm sorry I am staying in the Lodge. :lol:

Jim, I'm sure you'll get plenty of time at the MoM cabin eating donut and telling stories!

Far out. I didn't know we were going to have a club house at MOTD. It can't get any better then that and I will be "actually" there.

I'm staying at the lodge too, at least we will have wifi.

 

Sorta...

It's a very small pipe with a lot of people trying to use it at the same time.
