Sorry...I messed up on the name of the park. It is actually called James Island County Park. I looked on their website and it says that alcohol is allowed upon approval of some sort of application....I am inquiring as to what that means. This place may not be ideal for our purposes...I'm just throwing it out there for consideration. I have been there twice with my family and it is a nice facility and the location is perfect for our group. However, I'm afraid the rules of this park are more oriented toward families rather than our rowdy group!

hey, Capt. Will....maybe you could run by there sometime and scope it out.


No problem homie. The thing about down here is that there is a "No open container law". so what does everyone do? pour it in a red solo cup. Everyone does it. Cops know about, everyone knows about it. As long as your not walking down main street with your cup and causing a bunch of trouble, you're good.

I'll check out the park.

I also have a hotel that My company get's a discount. It's a really nice place (Wyndham) and it's $89/night. the thing is... it's not right downtown or next to the beach. But it's doable. It would be a lot like Raleigh/Durham

Wingate by Wyndham

Yea dude, that's pretty close to where I live. I can easily check that one out. ***just a note*** If we do decide to do this thing in Chuck-Town, I'm committing to staying at the hotel with you guys. I want to be where the action is.


And by the way, that hotel is on Highway 17. We all remember highway 17 from Wilmington right?!?

Here is the reply I got from James Island County Park:

Thank you for your interest in our park system! The only time we allow alcoholic beverages is with reservation of a shelter. Alcoholic beverages are prohibited elsewhere in the park, including the campground and cottages.

Quiet time is between 10pm and 7am.


[u][/u]

Obviously, that park is out.

Anybody ever been to these places? --

http://kickstandlodge.com/

Found this place too, but website is down:

Blue Ridge Motorcycle Campground & Cabins
59 Motorcycle Dr.
Canton, NC 28716
(828) 235-8350
Blue Ridge Motorcycle Campground & Cabins - 3,100’, camp along the river. Smoke free cabins, wireless internet. http://www.blueridgemotorcycle.com (828) 235-8350.

And this place:

http://ironhorsenc.com/


I've never been to any of them, but someone local could scope places like this out (I'm sure there are more than what I found). Cabins and Camping and possible Wrenching all in the same place, in a nice cool spot near water. Drinking likely allowed at some places (others look very conservative).

Prices from kickstand lodge:

Tenters First person $18.00
additional people $5.00 each
Add power for $5.00 per night
Fontana A $57.00
Fontana B $47.00
Bunk house $22.00 per person (up to 5)
Camping Cabin $42.00
RV (see definitions) $36.00

This is what a lot of riding groups do.

I checked that out Vince. for 2 full beds a chair and tv it is 173.97 for the 3 nites. Divide by 2 and that is 86.98 per person. with a year to go. I'm gonna save $5 a week and I'll have the room, t-shirt, and gas covered easily.

I also saw motel6 in Asheville. so it's a decent place to stay with reasonable rates for all.
