Ya think? It’s not even during one of the large Russian festival weekends held there.

I’ve stayed there twice before since it changed to a KOA. Both times on the expensive end, but $81 is nuts.

I stayed there in ‘99 when it was a different franchise. Hurricane Floyd moved in over night. The next morning I saw a frog come out of the river looking for shelter. Asked about renting one of their cabins for shelter. The guy running the place said there was a two-night minimum. The woman working the office was embarrassed and called a motel a few miles down the road. As I was leaving, the guy saw me and radioed the office to tell the woman I could have a cabin (no electricity) for one night. Too late, jerk. Rode a couple of miles in the early bands of hurricane rain to a comfortable room with a TV. The motel owner even drove me to an open deli so I could get food and beer.
