Default Where to stay for the Nall???

Where are all you fellow Giants staying for the Nall? It's getting close and I need to make reservations. Looking to hang out with as many of you all as possible for after-hours beverages and stuff!

I'm partial to the Mainstay suites in Greenville, right off of 85. I started staying there when I began helping out with the Masters, and really like it. I'm not sure how many people stay there, I'm normally pretty worn down by the time I get back to the hotel anyway.

Definitley stay at the site. You'll miss alot of the fun by going back to the hotel. They've got nice hot showers on site that make camping very liveable.

No doubt, camp it if you can. And you dont need a 150$ tent. Get a 40$ three-man one at Wally-world and stay in it solo with an airmattress and a sleeping bag. Im used to real camping, so having showers and real bathrooms was a nice touch. Definetly not what I would call "roughing it."

Camping there is half the fun. It's not as comfortable as an air conditioned Hotel....but well worth it!

I would just as soon stay at home if I lived 15 miles away. It's not that far of a drive.
