Hey, I might actually be able to make it to the Dragon this time. Thought I'd get the jump on everyone and start the thread for it really early. So go ahead and post whatever it is you'd normally post in a long thread about the upcoming MINIs on the Dragon 8.
Basic question. What are people paying per night to stay in the Fontana Village area. I want to know if it is feasible to road trip down next year. :skep: Thanks, Don

Don, there are some less expensive places to stay within a hour of Fontana. Check out the lodging section HERE. Plus there are always folks willing to split the cost of a room or cabin if you are traveling alone.
.... and paint your car orange so we know to stay far away when on the road... :lol: the Dragon and no sleep are not good bedfellows.... car and driver need to be at 100% operating efficiency for those roads... and even then, stuff happens... I'd rather give you my couch than have you not sleep... :yesnod:
Note on Fontana Village. For some reason, if you book online, they make you pay a deposit = to half of your stay, but if you book by phone they seem to let you pay a deposit of just one night's stay...weird
I booked a room near knoxville but then figured it was too far away. I went to Fontana Lodge that Friday and got my room for the rest of the weekend it was a great time
