FAQs

  • Wi-Fi - I am very happy to report that Wi-Fi has been increased to the entire Main Lodge now. So all of the rooms in the Main Lodge have Wi-Fi as well as the Mountview Restaurant and Bear’s Den Bar. There are also Hot Spots at the Pit Stop, General Store and Wildwood Grill.
  • Cell Phone Reception - The Verizon Wireless Cell Service hot spots are in the Lodge Lobby, the restaurants, the Pit Stop and the General Store. AT&T is almost non existent.
  • Pet Policy - Here is the link to the Pet Policy that can be found on their website here. You will see that the rooms do not allow pets and only a few of the cabins allow pets with a $150 fee. Pets are allowed in the camping area.
  • Onsite Overflow for Camping - Unfortunately they can’t allow tent camping anywhere other than at the campground. They have 10 tent campsites and 10 hook up sites, so hopefully we won’t run in to that problem. There are a couple of campgrounds that are fairly close to the resort if in worst case scenario (still researching this).
  • In room Coffee makers are not available however, they provide coffee in the main lodge lobby 24 hours/per day. A few personal coffee makers may also find their way to the pool side Cabana rooms as well.
  • The rooms do not have mini-fridges in them however there are several ice machines available so please plan accordingly.
  • Wheelchair access rooms are available and the bathrooms in these rooms have rails however the tubs are step or lift in and not roll in shower stalls.
PLEASE be sure to read all of the information as it will help to avoid misunderstandings and/or failed expectations. More detailed information concerning events will be posted as we progress with the planning over the next few months. If you have any questions or suggestions or if you would like to volunteer to be on one of our teams of "helpers" please feel free to post them here or drop either Dubswing or myself a PM and we will try to respond right away!

QDaddy & The Hag are IN!

Well we missed N6 (don't ask). So we've already reserved a room at the resort for N7. Hotel rate is $89 plus tax for the rally.
:shock:I'm excited about next years location. I love the Smokies

Looks like a nice facility. What are the room rates for
NASSIR 7?:?

If my surgery recovery goes well I will be there for sure.
Reservation made, arriving Sunday July 6, received a confirmation email for my stay. Room 124. Looks like a neat place for this event. Looking forward to riding the Dragon both ways. (Did it one way at NASSIR 1)
see y'all there, reservations are made,room 224. 7th thru 10th:raspberry:
:jumper::jumper:

Reservations made, I am in room 121 while yes one of the upstairs rooms would have been nice, the price was right for me. So all of you rowdy characters who will be utilizing the pool, will need to keep the noise down while I get my beauty sleep! :ROFL:

This really does look like an awesome resort and a great place to hold NASSIR. I am so looking forward to finally get to another NASSIR, since I have had to miss the last two.

QDaddy, glad to see that you're going to be there. Looking forward to seeing you again, it has been too long. :waving:

Hey there Don, the rate for a basic room is $89 and goes up from there, $129 and up and from my understanding those rooms are well worth the money.

I have faith that your surgery and recovery will go fine and that I will see you at Diggers and then Nassir next year. :)
Thanks fer posting the Info John!! But looking at the names posted on the Poolside Cabana rooms.... You on one end and Dubswing on the other and me in the center??? I think I'm caught between the rock and the hard place........


:ROFL::ROFL::ROFL:
John, are the campgrounds also at this resort. How far are they from the hotel rooms?

There are campgrounds at the resort although as noted in the letter above we are trying our best to encourage everyone to take a room. If you choose to camp, and that is certainly your prerogative, then the resort's campground is about 2 miles away. They have 10 tent sites and 10 30 amp sites. According to their website the tent sites are $15 and the electric sites are $30 (no discounts for the event).
.Put us 2.5 on the list of attendees,... CAMPING!


:waving:

Might be to early but,.... Is there a NASSIR discount?

OUCH!

Cancelations more than 30 days in advance of arrival will receive a refund less a $50 cancelation fee. Less than 30 days will forfeit deposit.

3 night stay is $50.73... means IF I cancel on day 31, I'll get $0.73 back.

We are in 234, which i notice on the room map on the forum shows jobe05 in that room. So we called back to confirm, and they confirmed that was our room number. Please let us know if there is a conflict as we don't want to take someone elses room. :raspberry:
