    Get yourselves into Zephyr, it will be the closest to all the fun. Starbucks is right out the door for those in need of an early jolt.

    I noted a number of hot-tubs for guest usage and good local eating spots. A small grocery is on site near the Zephyr.

    I spent some time touring/evaluating the rooms, they are very good and fresh. WP is very pet friendly and there will be a ton of stuff going on in WP this week.

    Each of the condo/room units has parking available under the condo complex, it is included in the room cost, so if you don't like to leave your MINI out, you don't have too.

    MINI driving/events, biking and hiking will be great. The town WP has some great shops and restaurants for us too.:)

    Is the MINI parking on the map for the events only or is it where we will park overnight? Just wondering because looking at Winter Parks website they make it sound like there is no parking close to the lodges.

    The parking structure is where all of us will be parking. If you want to park under the top deck you may or there is covered parking at Founders Point and Fraser Crossing if you book room there. Generally most of us will be parking on the top deck of the parking structure labeled "MINI Parking" on the above map.

    I just booked my room. FYI, they will charge your card 25% at time of booking with the balance due on July 13, 2010.

    Good to know Jeffrey, thanks for sharing.
    If you haven't booked your room yet you need to get started. With MTTS in town I think a lot of people will be choosing Winter Park over Denver. Its only an hour away from Denver and the view is better. Plus our rates are really good.

    I finally got booked, this 3 hours difference made it a little confusing as I called they were close they called I was out. Is there a place to post for roommates, I need one to help share the cost. Downsized to 1 bedroom and it has fold out couch thats for rent.

    Got my room booked today at the Vintage. :) So we can't park at the hotel right? We have to actual park at the MINI parking? (Just trying to make sure so I don't have a surprise when I get there...)

    You can park at the Vintage and ride the 5 minute gondola to the main event, you can walk the 1/2 mile down the hill or you can also park in the parking structure near the main event happenings.
    The Vintage actually has a huge parking lot - 1,500 cars or more can park there.
