Well, I have started an odyssey, and will find the answers in the next day or two. I need to back up a bit though. I was putting in for vacation about two weeks ago. In talking with our scheduling person, she sent word that it was odd that I wanted vacation from Tuesday to Tuesday. I figure it will take two days to drive up with a trailer. I told her I was going to Wisconsin for an auto show and race event. She looked at me oddly, and asked what town. I said Elkhart Lake. Well it winds up that her husbands cousin owns/operates one of the bars there and on the big race weekends, he rents out his home and stays over the bar. Well as it turns out he thinks about it, says he is willing to rent it out, then one day later decides not to. She calls her aunt last night and she says she just rented out her house four days ago. She knows the people in the Chanber of Commerce and they have a list of homes that are available to rent. They are expecting my call tomorrow. I don't go into work til 11 AM, so I will be calling about 10.
Now, the question is, Are any of you guys interested in renting a house for the weekend?? It is a small town, so everything should be in close proximity. I wil gather the info and will post it here tomorrow night hopefully. I don't get off til 7 PM EST. So if you have an interest drop me a PM of post here.
The rates at the Osthoff run from$200 to $600 a night(I assume). On checking with the Hotel, there aren't any rooms available for the race weekend. A beautiful place. A house may be more, but if there are several of us then the rates go down. I will post the results here.
