I have been supporting this event for many years, and this is the first time that I have felt unwelcome. Please do not repeat this next year.


The dates on the confirmation page are from last year.

What time did you try and rent a cabin? I got the last one on the lodge side at 1pm on 11/15.

I can understand Phil & his volunteer staffers getting first crack at NV lodging, since they organize & run the event, but no one else should receive any preferential treatment.

I registered yesterday also and had the same issue with trying to reserve a cabin If the village idiots are allowing people to reserve without having registered already unfortunately theres not much that can be done about it at this point and it will cause issues in the community but I agree if it happened that way it sucks but its not on Phil. its on the village idiots to make it right.



I'm still gonna come but if the village wants to be that way I'll take my hard earned cash elsewhere

What I am really confused by is that I, along with at least two other people, have all been told they got the last cabin and at different times. I was told at 1pm Friday that I got the last thing they had on the lodge side. It just seems weird each person gets told they are getting the last one.

^Same here, how is it possible that a bunch of us calling at different times are getting the "last cabin/last room"? Unless someone had booked before and then cancelled?

I called NV yesterday right about noon. My first preference was a room in the lodge, and she told me all of them were sold out for DGRR. So then I asked her what properties (cabins, fireplace suites, whatever) does she still have open? She told me that on NV property, the only cabin left was #23, so I booked that. FWIW, she also told me there are a few other cabins & properties nearby that NV doesn't own, but that NV has arrangements with the property owners so she could book one of those for me if I wanted.

Yeah something is definently off. Adam posted at around 4pm Friday that someone had already booked #23 (where he stayed last year). Then you were able to book it Saturday.

Ugh, I hope NV didn't F-up on my reservation... They already charged the deposit for #23 on my CC.

Well reading some more on FB, it looks like Phil found out on Friday some stuff had been reserved improperly and announced more would open up. So your cabin was probably one. Just sucks that some folks got locked out of "their" cabins from last year due to this screw up lol

I called again for shits and giggles and was told everything was reserved and they all had registration codes.
