I called Erik about reserving a campsite and we both felt that it was time to get something reserved. Erik said that we should check on a "no deposit" option or about cancellation charges. Also we'll need to decide whose credit card we are using for the reservation and how we will split the charges when we get there.
Inquired with Dutcher Creek campground. ($55.00 per night) my first choice for wine country for two night (July 13, 14). Talked to a lovely person named Francis who said that how they do it is you pay in full up front. Cancellation policy was if you cancel more than 48hr prior to the reservation they refund with a $10.00 cancellation fee. However Francis admitted to me that she does not actually collect the $10.00 because " it messes up my books and I don't know where to put it on the paperwork". We both had a good laugh over this.
Francis mentioned that they had a swimming pool "for now" but that any day now they might be told to close it due to the drought. Erik how would you feel about a little gentleman's wager? I'll bet you a lunch at In'N Out burger that the swimming pool at the campground we stay at our first night in wine county is closed. If it is closed you owe me a lunch at In'N Out but if it is open I owe you same. Are you up for it?
Called Novato, the other campground I posted in wine county, and got the answering service I'll try again tomorrow and post the results. We should make a reservation by this weekend.
The location makes no difference to me. It's the company that matters.
ReplyDeleteOK. I'm going to go ahead and make a reservation for 2 nights at Dutcher Creek on my card. We can sort out payment later. I'll post the info when done.
ReplyDeleteAll right, I made a reservation for 2 nights at Dutcher Creek for July 13, 14 on my card. Total was $146.06 including taxes.
