2016 Powell Lodging Update

[sparkchaser]

sparkchaser,

The number you give in your first post about Brian at the Marina is incorrect. It is for some agency in Texas. Could you re post the number. I'm considering taking my motor home later in the year to wait for better weather and would like to talk to Brian as to what the fishing is like as the weather warms up in June. The per day cost is now to the point whare I can take a tow car and my MH up and camp for less that the cost of a week or more of daily rental costs.

Sorry about that. I got the area code wrong, and updated the number in the OP. Thanks for the heads up.

OK everyone here is the final shakedown for the trailers:

Trailer 1: OneBlade, FishHawk, CousinLLL, WheatThin conformation number 14X6Y4

Trailer 2: Marvin, Stevert, Timbo and Jane confirmation number 14X6Y5

Trailer 3: FishMan, Sparkchaser, Kelley and Patti confirmation number 14X6Y6

One person in your group needs to call Robin Marquis at 928-645-1119 ext 1 and secure the trailer with a down payment. One thing to note, Robin is currently out of the office until the 13th. I will call on the 14th to get the exact down payment amount and take care of our trailer.

Just wanted to update you all. I was in Dallas for the last week and unable to contact Robin until today. She is sending a deposit request via email and assured me we are still on for our requested dates. As soon as I have the email, I'll post it it here.

I'm probably going to have to set this year out. I'll know more after seeing the surgeon on 4-8

Wow... I know this is a lot more than we paid last year. Here is the info I got regarding the final rate and payment information. Call Christy at the office number below. She will be expecting full payment for the week because they gave us a special rate. Guess they normally book out at 330 per night? Use the confirmation number 14X6Y5 or 14X6Y6 when making your reservation. I used 14X6Y4 for our trailer.

Hello Dave,

Each reservation is $270.87 per night or $1,896.09 grand total per unit. I have attached a credit card authorization form or you can call me at the number below to make payment over the phone.

I guess the way I'll validate the cost is to realize what a deal we had the past few years.  Thanks for getting it all reserved!

Not going to make it this year.  Christian got a call on Monday that he will be leaving for Basic Training 7 June, 2 months earlier than we expected.  Now we have to move our European vacation up 2 months and I can't justify the money for this this trip at this time.  I'm sure y'all will have a great time as usual and the boats will be filled with fish!  Just like the Cubbies......there is ALWAYS next year!

Wow. $270/night for those trailers?? I've got to buy me some trailers to park up there! I could make a good profit even after paying campsite rental.

[FishMan]

So long as for $270 they come with ovens free from mice, We can all consider it a win. Thanks for your hard work Dave. You still saved us over $350 a cabin with your negotiating.

Exactly.  Honestly the cost we got prior years was unreal.  It'll be interesting how things work out next year.  Aren't these remaining trailers on their last days?  We may have to pull campers next year?
