Lodging prior to pick up


Free2Roam

Recommended Posts

a minor detail: need a place to stay the night before pick up (regular lodging since no Trailer yet) that allows dogs. Checked with Fall Hollow and they have rooms but don’t allow pets in them. Any suggestions?  Thanks!

We stayed at the Commodore Hotel in nearby Linden. (We were coming from the west--Arizona.) They welcomed us with our large Pyrenees-mix, Hank. The historic hotel was interesting but not cheap.

You don't say where you are coming from! If from the west, avoid Jackson TN like the plague, although it has tons of hotels since it straddles I40, the area is a cesspool... to put it mildly.

 

Savannah TN is very nice, is on the Tennessee River, has lots of parks and lodging, and is an hour from Hohenwald by very twisty backroads. I can't comment on a dog friendly motel since we left ours at home.

 

If from the east, Columbia would be a good choice.

John, we are coming down I40 from Oklahoma. I think we may go through Nashville and stay in the outskirts.  Thanks!  -Angela

Nashville has some very cool places to visit, including a nice zoo, but it isn't at all on the way to Hohenwald from Oklahoma... be aware that traffic is fast and vicious, especially if you are towing.

 

If you want to camp close in to the city of Nashville after collecting your trailer, the Anderson Road COE campground is simply stellar. And dirt cheap with a Senior Pass. Reservations are highly recommended!!! Any of the waterfront sites along the west side are great, we had # 22.

Any of the TN state parks are good choices but they are very costly compared to Corps facilities... Henry Horton east of Columbia (due south of Nashville) is very nice.

The weather shoul be nice for you, it gets pretty nasty in mid summer.

nashville would just be for going out. We haven’t been there in a while so thought it’d be nice to browse before pick up.

 

Will definitely put the other places you mentioned on the list of places to see! Thanks!  -Angela

Eat Well Sushi and Grill in Memphis, TN had a great Sushi buffet, we ate there both going and coming home. Then in Franklin, TN there was Yats, a Cajon Creole restraunt that expanded from Louisiana that was to die for :) We stayed at the Comodore and the staff was excellent. It's an old historic hotel where you walk upstairs to your room. It's about 30 easy minutes away and it makes for an easy relaxed morning drive. You park right in front of the hotel and it's totally quiet and safe :)

I thought I’d read that in the past, Oliver would put you up for the night at the Commodore the night before. Did they stop doing that?

They will pay for extended stays at the Commodor when there are problems, your on your own getting to the factory to pick up.

Happy Camping,

Yats sounds fantastic!  Thanks for the tips!

Both of those restaraunts are well worth the stop. Have you ever had cajon crawdad Sushi? That's one of the choices at the Eat Well Sushi buffet. They have low reviews on service but that's from people that don't understand buffets, I guess... You simply get your own, we had a great time, both times with hundreds of choices, no complaints here. Then Yats sold us a bunch for take out that we ate on for a few days, we ordered one and ended up with 3 of the one pound plastic jars of their different creoles as they were closing for the night. Then they also sell their brand of Cajon seasoning that we use all the time now :)

We're staying here when we go up at the end of the month for our factory tour so I can't say how nice it is or isn't. They allow pets for an extra fee.

For our first visit when we placed our order (Oct 2015) we stayed at Natchez Hills B&B. It’s associated with the Natchez Hills Winery. It was a log cabin in the middle of the woods about a quarter mile from the owners house. There is also a small house that you can rent at Amber Falls Winery. Here’s the only picture I have of our cabin at Natchez Hills. We really enjoyed the rustic ambiance.  Mike

Thanks, Mike! Love places like that.  We decided to stay in a conventional hotel in franklin since it’s onky about an hour away and we don’t have to be there until 10 am. We can still check out the winery though :)  Pick up is tomorrow! So surreal!  -Angela

Are you staying end of October? Or did you stay there in September.

Looks like a great spot. Airbnb reviews are good, but all the photos are really fuzzy...

Thanks.

We'll be there October 24 & 25. We've had wonderful experiences with VRBO.com & hope to have the same luck with AirBnB.
