Chameleon Posted April 5, 2012 Author Share Posted April 5, 2012 Aloha Donna My brother and I and maybe couple of other cars are interested in going. 2-4 cars total. We are thinking about staying at Hanagan's Meadow Lodge Friday (May 11) and Saturday (May 12) night. We have stayed up there the last two times we went up there to drive Devil's Highway and had a blast. I would be interested in comparing your room rates at the location you picked. We all live up in Prescott so maybe we can meet you in Payson if that's the way you are going on the way up. Hey Pam, That would be cool. Yes, I am going up through Payson. Can you give me a drive time estimate for your group from Prescott to Payson? That would help with planning. Here is the link to where I am staying: http://bestwesternarizona.com/hotels/best-western-sunrise-inn Once this gets closer, if other folks are actually joining, I'll post up departure point and time in the first thread and then we can figure out a Payson meet point/time. . .

Your's and Cherye's presence was greatly appreciated. Google map says drive time from Prescott to Payson is 2 hours and 20 minute. $10 says we can beat that time.

VenomOnWheels Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 . . .We are thinking about staying at Hanagan's Meadow Lodge Friday (May 11) and Saturday (May 12) night. We have stayed up there the last two times we went . . . Pam, Did you participate in any of the annual Devil's Highway runs with Velocity Vettes? My wife and I usually stay at Hannagan Meadow (lodge or cabin) and hope to do so again on May 11 & 12. A couple of the lodge rooms are actually cheaper than the Best Western and the accommodations, scenery, and serenity are beyond comparison. Regarding meet-up points, when we've done this in the past west & east valley Phoenix folks would take US-60, meet-up with southern Arizona folks at Florence Junction, and continue on US-60 through the Salt River Canyon into Show Low. Prescott folks (and some northeast Phoenix folks) would take AZ-260 to Payson where they'd meet-up with the northeast Phoenix folks who chose to take AZ-87 and then proceed together to Show Low. For the last couple of trips we all met at Mama Bear's restaurant in Lakeside for lunch. We're looking forward to this cruise.

Dale & Christine As noted in the original post, the route is up through Payson - meetpoint for that will be somewhere around Fountain hills. If you want to take another route, that's cool, but the route for anyone who wants to run as a group with me on this is up through Payson. Lunch stop is TBD the day of the run by the folks who actually show up for this. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dale & Christine Yea...both times were with Velocity Vettes. I am going to contact Lynn and Steve and see if they are up for going. They were out of state the last time I talked to Lynn a couple of weeks ago. Hannagan's Meadow is one of the most beautiful places in the White Mt.

jack52r Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 WHOO-HOOOOO I am 100% in. Making my reservation at the Sunrise Inn now for the 11th and the Morenci Motel for the 12th. My friend Richard (SPOT)) Edwards will be my co-driver. I am certain he will be compatable with all as he is a car guy, Hot Rods up to this point, but hope to change his ways with this trip. I will be checking to see when the met-up time will be so I can plan my departure so I can go to Casa Grand and pick up Spot, then head up to mee with you all.

Chameleon Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 Did the hotel give you a special rate at all? Room Rate Subtotal: $71.39 USD ($80.75 with tax) This is the rate I got for booking 21 days in advance and paying up front. Browse through the rates on the hotel's webpage and there might be some left. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Booked a room at that Best Western. Got a double queen bed non-smoking room if anybody wants to split the room with me. The room was $80.99 plus 13.11% tax. FYI, I use a CPAP machine and even then sometimes I snore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
