[MENTION=33499]WhiskeyD[/MENTION] I can probably get you down and back if need be

Thanks. I'll let you know in a couple weeks. Still would like to make this trip if possible but I have to see how my work schedule is gonna work out. Thursday-Sunday would be my goal. What days were you thinking [MENTION=77343]Ankeneyou[/MENTION] ?
 
[MENTION=33499]WhiskeyD[/MENTION] I was gonna book Fri and Sat, leaving sunday but if people could make Thursday I may be able to do that as well.
 
Big red is my favorite ski Ive ever ridden ever. At any point in my life, ever. :cheers:

that miller ski was pretty nuts, too.

Wow- both were insane. Red cornered harder than I could hold on and the Miller ski flat made me nauseous from hitting so hard! It was an honor for a stock guy to be able to even sit on those, let alone ride them. :driving: :hurray: :biggrinjester:

It kills me that I wont be at this meetup. The place looks awesome. And I know the people and skis are as well.

Bummer, we never got to belews this summer together, not over yet and you know as good as I do the water wont be cold, unless the power goes out:lols:
 
i'm booked, 3 of us coming up from Ft Myers.
https://www.vrbo.com/853134

it was actually my 2nd choice, but decided the garage would come in handy for security.

mu first choice was..https://www.vrbo.com/246299 and its still available.

IMO its an excellent location, fair price, and looks like it might have a little bit of grass to pull your ski's up during the day

Is anyone staying at the marina itself or is everyone using vrbo

curious myself just because I wasn't 100% sure I picked a good location for my VRBO.

If I have the maps right my house should put me about 4-5 minutes away from the Marina which I used as my target location and worked my way out from there. There are actually some really cool locations further up the river but too far away, if I like this area well enough I might come back for another stay in the spring.

How much it cost spim? Im in the air as far as marina or finding something on vrbo

a tad more than I preferred, but splitting it 3 ways isn't too bad, I would have been fine with a 2 night minimum property but none of the 2 nighters were in the specific area that I wanted to be in.

anyhoo, $200 a night, 300 damage deposit, and $60 additional for damage insurance <that was a new one to me
assuming we don't trash the place It will run about $240 per person for 3 nights.
Which is about the same as my estimated food & fuel costs..... lol

edit, crap, now that I have the address, apparently i'm about 9 miles north of the marina, didnt' realize there were 2 marina's right in that area I thought I was right around the bend.

Good news is it gives me a 9 mile head start on a north river run, bad news i'm 9 miles further away from the lake but I have good range on my ski so I don't think I need to search for a more southern location ( LOL, i'm saying that as I have another browser window open doing exactly that)

property #2 that I listed above is actually in a perfect location in relation to georgetown marina, it looks to be about a half mile away.

im south of you about 3 miles
 
I have been looking at your property #2 and the one I posted earlier. They are really close to one another but am trying to see if they'll lower prices a bit since it's the offseason.

It's not the offseason this is in season in Florida snow birds migrate south
