Hotel/Motel Accommodations
While there are no hotels or motels within the immediate vicinity of the workshop site there are
quite a few within 1.5 to 3 mile miles.  I have provided below a list of the 6 motel/hotels that seem
to be less that two miles from the workshop venue.  The list was obtained through DexOnline.  
There are many more options within a short diving distance of the workshop so please do not feel
limited by what is provided here.  

The first three listed establishments are providing special rates for workshop attendees.  For phone
in reservations be sure to identify yourself as a member of the “Gary Renard Workshop Group” in
order to get the special rate.  Additionally in order to guarantee the special rate you will need to
make your room reservations before February 5th.   

The lodging costs for the last three listed establishments represent their current 2006 standard rate
which could change with the new calendar year.  The rates specified below do not include taxes
which are currently at 12.5%.
