Hi All!

I know it's early but I've been getting reservation requests for next summer ALREADY!

There are two weeks that TVCH members are going to be here next year. Lance and Glenn will be here for
the full two weeks starting June 26th thru July 10th. There are a few openings left for the second week and quite a few openings for the 1st week. If anyone is interested you can email me at jmlarson@eot.com

You can visit our website at www.islandviewresort.net

Birdie, as long as he brings enough explosives-er....fireworks to blow us all up and not just part of us, then I'm okay with that :)

Misery loves company, right? LOL

Thanks, Rg. I didn't get a chance to talk to Kar about our arrangements much while we were visiting. Can't wait!!!!

How far away is your resort from say, Minneapolis?

- does that (maybe) mean what I think it means?

I'm still trying to pull teeth with my employer and find out which day they are going to have the 4th holiday on (it could be Friday, or Monday). Unit and I might just end up doing a Wednesday to Wednesday sort of thing.

How bad would that cramp your planning, RG ?

The resort is about a 3 hour drive from MSP. :) There are two closer airports as well.

Half I think that would work out great. I know that Lance has room for people in his cabin. And he's staying both weeks.
I think there is another TVCH member who plans to split the week also. I'll let her reveal herself though...lol!
Admin, Where are you coming from? We are closer to Fargo and to Bemidji, both have airports.

I never been to the get-away. BUT I heard that everyone had alot of fun this year! I also don't know alot of people here at TVCH, even though I've been here for a few years (spent too many lurking I guess).

So my question is, are newbee's welcome? And is this a family occasion, or just couple's without the kids? I have one 6 yr old who loves vacations BUT my husband and I do travel without him on trips at least once a year, for some alone time. Also, if we don't know if we're able to come until closer to the time and you're booked up, what are our alternatives?

Thanks, for answering my questions! As the people who do know me here can attest - my screenname CURIOUS1 fits me perfectly, I'm full of questions!

Curious, Of Course Newbies are welcome!!

So far in the past years it's been more an adult week. My kids are around a bit, but they live here...lol! It would be completely up to the rest of you how you want to handle that! If we were to get booked before you can make a definite decision, you could stay at one of our local hotels, or possilby find an opening at another resort close by (that's doubtful, but ya never know) But either way we would want you to spend every waking moment here with US!!

I'm going to talk to my bf and see if I can plan a trip to the states around this time. Lance, can you save me a small piece of floor?

Resortgirl

Azriel, there are still some cabins open if you want an actual bed! lol!

I am still hoping to be there next year, however, I have no idea what the future is going to bring. Brian is looking for jobs overseas. He actually sent his resume for a job in Turkey of all places! ACK!

I imagine we'll stay in town at a hotel if we do go. Its kind of hard to commit to a cabin right now when things are a bit iffy. If anything, I'll see about coming by myself if Brian is unable to. If that's the case, then I'll need either a bed or a couch. :)

If a person was contemplating the possibilities and didnt want to fly from say, New York, where is the closest Amtrak station to RGs and how difficult would it be to get to and fro.

Spygirl

I would imagine there might be a terminal in say...Minneapolis...where some very nice people who would already be driving up through and from the twin cities might be willing to pick up someone contemplating such a trip

Hi Reiki!
I think this might be what you're looking for!

as you can see from my profile we have what appears to be a dog - even though he does not think he is one! But anyway, are such creatures allowed at your establishment?

Resortgirl

Wednesday, September 10, 2003 - 02:22 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
sasman, we certainly do take pets! There is an additional charge of $50 per week. He's a real cutie!

RG, which cabins are still available (which week)?

Reiki, I actually did look into Amtrak stations this year. There are a couple not too far away. Only problem was, the train I would be taking arrived about 2 a.m. or something. On the other hand, we DO have a number of insomniacs at tvch ...

I've been known to be at the train station at 2am or some such time.
