    Reservations are sketchy

    Vacation Lodge lost my reservation also. They have no rooms available Saturday night so they cannot take a new reservation. Lily is starting up their old computer to see if she can find my info. Not sure if finding it will help if they are over booked.

    Did they email you a receipt when you first made the reservation? Bring it. they normally charge for the first night in advance.

    I may be able to help you out there, as I'm about 85-90% sure I'm going to bail. Central Texas has this little thing called Harvey hanging over us, and the forecast to get out of here early this week while staying dry doesn't look good. I'll ride in rain, but prefer the kind that is a possibility, not a probability, or in this case, a certainty.

    Thanks Jeff
    Keep me posted. My preference would be for the Vacation Lodge to fix this and Harvey to leave town and we meet in Pigeon Forge. I found my Confirmation email. They found my reservation on the old computer. They are overbooked. They are running credit cards looking for one to decline so they can boot a reservation out and insert mine.

    What a class outfit that is. Holy chit.

    I called and confirmed (later) and have receipt in hand... If I arrive and there's NOT A ROOM FOR ME.. THEY BE BEST LAYING OUT MY ROOM IN THE LOBBY.

    Ya'll can buy me a drink, as you traipses to your reserved rooms past me; whilst I'm laid out in the lobby.

    You could always get one of those little indoor tents for kids and put that up in the lobby. At least you'd be first in line for breakfast!

    Dana, what is your last name? After checking the National Weather Service map for the week, I'm going to cancel my room this morning. I'm 0-2 on planned trips to the Smokies this year, due to torrential rain, but my situation is a minor inconvenience, compared to that hitting the folks in Houston.

    Please don't give up on the Smokies! Next time you can get out here, let me know. We can round some folks up and have a mini-rally. Y'all be safe! Texans are the toughest folks around, but damn...

    Jeff,
    The Monday morning crew at the Vacation Lodge fixed my problem. They now tell me I have a room. Thanks for thinking of me. Wish you could find a safe way around the storm.
