I have not been able to get through to them this morning, they may be busy with folks leaving on Sunday. Curious what their cancelation policy is, and what deposit they require.

Ned · « **Reply #61 on:** October 04, 2015, 10:14:01 AM »

They will take one night's stay as a deposit, $30 in our case.

I am new member, Leo Janowski. Cindy and I are looking forward to the trip. Cindy has never been to Big Bend and is excited to see Henry and Margaret Wishard as am I. We will be in spot 24.

Gary, I tried about four or five times and they never answered the telephone. I finally left a message and they called back about an hour later. As Ned said, the deposit is for the first night @ $30.00. Their cancellation policy, as per what was on our confirmation, is three days prior to arrival to get a full refund.

Hope you guys are able to make it, sounds like fun.

Mike.

Totally. Henry just goes along to keep Larry in line.

I had them resend the confirmation. We're in site RV25.

Our confirmation shows departure on April 23, shouldn't that be April 24? What do the others show?

THEBigLarry · « **Reply #68 on:** October 05, 2015, 10:55:51 AM »

We don't need anyone's RV site, but appreciate those posting them as it gives
everyone an idea who their neighbor will be. But of course with this group, anyone
would likely be a good neighbor. . . .

Terry, thanks. If everyone else is showing departure on the 24th, then I'll call them back and extend by one day.

Someone has to keep him in line!. Have you got ahold of the park yet?

zmotorsports · « **Reply #72 on:** October 05, 2015, 07:47:16 PM »

We would have had to leave on Saturday anyways to get back. I didn't realize it was thru the 23rd until I made the reservations. That at least made the wife happy that we weren't going to miss any of the actual rally. She was a bit sad when I told her we would have to leave on Saturday in order to get back home.

Mike.

THEBigLarry · « **Reply #73 on:** October 05, 2015, 07:58:19 PM »

It occurs to me that the park is interpreting our dates as a 6 night stay.
I am going to call tomorrow and change my reservation to a 4/24 departure
on Sunday, staying 7 nights. . .

Ned · « **Reply #74 on:** October 05, 2015, 08:50:36 PM »

I got a reply to my email extending our stay to the 23rd, leaving on the 24th.

Ken & Sheila · « **Reply #75 on:** October 06, 2015, 09:47:20 AM »

I sent them a message last night and just got a reply. They have the date for the group departure as 4/23. I am changing ours to the 24th.

Ned · « **Reply #76 on:** October 06, 2015, 01:05:52 PM »

I'm sure they won't mind the extra day of revenue

Photog · « **Reply #77 on:** October 07, 2015, 01:52:32 PM »

Gary & Larry,

Corinne and I are signed up for site RV 46.

Like Steve our work won't be over till April 15th. Since it's only a 16 hour drive, we may be able to make it in two days. However, if we get a late start on Saturday we might not arrive till Monday.

Becks · « **Reply #78 on:** October 07, 2015, 02:27:21 PM »

Gary and Larry,

Darlene and I are all signed up as well, and just got our email for site RV 33.

Tourmaster · « **Reply #79 on:** October 08, 2015, 09:16:49 PM »

After much arm twisting and pleading we are signed up in site RV34. The grandkids will have to wait two more weeks.

John and Carol

Sounds good John, thought you guys might like that slight detour on the way home.

I'm having a hard time finding a reservation link to the Big Ben rally for April . I know there are several links but im not seeing a park map for Reservations.Would someone send me a link?

Ned · « **Reply #82 on:** October 12, 2015, 07:48:25 AM »

There is no map on the web site. Just call and make your reservation, mentioning the RV Forum rally, and a PDF map of the campground will be attached to your confirmation email.

Henry Wishard · « **Reply #83 on:** October 12, 2015, 08:40:29 AM »

Here is a picture of the layout of sites for the campground.

Family visit possibly getting in the way. Then there's the question of whether or not we will have a motorhome. How many bedrooms does your Tiffin have?

Henry Wishard · « **Reply #85 on:** October 12, 2015, 08:48:19 AM »

They have several hundred next door at the hotel. My motor home entertains 6, feeds 4 and sleeps 2. No exceptions except grandchildren.

Henry Wishard · « **Reply #86 on:** October 12, 2015, 08:52:17 AM »

Here is all the contact info I have. Hope this helps

jerryg@deb · « **Reply #87 on:** October 12, 2015, 03:32:57 PM »

Thank you. I know Debra wanting to go because all she keeps saying is there's a lot to see in that part of the country Debra's not letting up with the beg Ben travel guide in front of her.

jerryg@deb · « **Reply #88 on:** October 13, 2015, 10:55:14 AM »

Debra an I are good to go space 29 4/18 to 4/24 leaving Sunday morning. Where looking forward to joining the community group.

Henry Wishard · « **Reply #89 on:** October 13, 2015, 03:51:30 PM »

Glad to see you got in. You want regret it. I tried several times today to get a friend in. Took 5 or 6 times to get them to answer but mission accomplished. See you in Big Bend.
