Thanks for the heads up Howard!

There are a number of condos around the lake, as well as one or two resort style places. A good chunk of the SVT guys have already booked the lodging with one or two of the condos. I think the only place I would avoid there is the Calabogie Motor Inn.....unless they have renovated it. This is the place with the petting zoo outside. The zoo is positioned such that any runoff flows right to the foundation of the rooms. The urine smell was making my eyes water. We were so disgusted that we demanded a refund on the spot and booked/occupied one of the condos, all in the space of about 35 minutes.

Traveler beware.

Edit FYI: We have 20 registered as of today.

I recently spoke with the "new" owner of the Calabogie Motor Inn. Her name is Sue and she said that she and her husband bought the place a couple of years ago they closed the petting zoo and the mini golf.

I would be losing money if I didn't sign up for this.

If this track is as bitchin' as everyone says it is, turning the trip north of the border into a 3 day marathon is a must.

Follow-up.
I just received the following email from the owner of the Calabogie Motor Inn.
1-617 752-2468

This will confirm your reservation for August 16, 17, 18, 19, 2013.
We only have three rooms open, if there is anyone you know that
will be needing a reservation for the same time period they should
book immediately as there will be no vacant rooms in the area!

Thanks Sue

I haven't, but IIRC the mosquitos come out around 5 PM and they're pretty aggressive.

I just signed up. I too will need a place to stay, maybe some people want to go in on a house or condo. I haven't looked at the options up there yet.

Finally got around to signing up today.

I saw this on VRBO, anyone interested in this bitchin' place? With enough people the numbers could work out so that it's not horribly priced.

Damn, I planned to "camp" but that place is almost nicer than being at the track.

I just spoke to Sue @ the Calabogie Motor Inn.
She said they are full from August 16-19 but I just cancelled my room for those dates.
So if anyone needs a room I would suggest giving her a call.
