I called Vail Lakes today and they said they had sites 63-71 available in the Chardonnay Mesa. These sites book up the fastest.

The dates are Friday April 13th thru Sunday April 15th

sites are FULL hookup and there is a big grass area for the kids to play. The fees are $65/night. when you call they require a one night deposit of $65

their website is http://www.vaillakeresort.com  
(it hasn't been working the last couple of days)
and their Phone number is:  866 Vail lak

If you want to go, make a reservation and post it here I will "wagonmaster" the thread and keep it updated

Everybody else will have just camped the weekend before for Easter.  But that's okay-small rallies are nice too.  :)

let me do some checking..the last I heard the lake was nasty gross and smelled :yikes:


checked with my neighbor and here's the scoop. He says that water ain't that bad. by what criteria it's based on I don't know. he' says they've cleaned up the water..which to me means don't eat any fish outta there

as far as the RV park he says it's nice he has a friend that stays there and in Vegas for work. so I asked him about "longtermers" and he says there really isn't any and his friend has to move his trailer all the time.

he is the thing..He says come Dawn evry bug in the world comes out, unles you have as he called them "those big smoke pots" you'll go crazy.


no on that note Brad I'll let you go check it out and let us know :D

I'm up for it sometime. Brad the syaing goes "if you plan it they will come"

I have already paid for Vail and so has Lori and Azusateach. just because I started a rally doesn't mean it's entirely my idea ;)

Actually I wouldn't have gone execpt that we got the Mesa

I've been to Valencia travel village. the pool and village area as nice. we had a great time at the pool but part of it looks a litte "seedy" with long termers.  There is a big area in the back with a group fire ring.

I know Viking drove thru one time but I forget what his opinion was of it


East shore  , I actually drove thru there. it was nice I wouldn't want on the outside edge tho as it a big dropoff :yikes: don't know who I'm more worried about Kara or Griffin  :J someone posted there was a big skunk problem there, I haven't verified that yet

I don't think we will have the problems as there is no special event and we won't have traffic to contend with

I thought the ratings were great. If you read them, people were complaining about the bathrooms not having a proper mirror, dry dressing area, heat, soap and towels :eyecrazy: . Give me a break........this is a CG not a hotel :rolleyes: . I didn't see any mention of them being dirty.

The only legit complaint that I read was about the "Permanent residents".

BTW.........I like skunks :p .

Lori says we will be missing the 24 hrs. of Temecula MB race.:(

I know what you're saying, Brad; however, I've been to Vail Lakes two other times, once with our group and once without, and had absolutely no problems there.  It's just the craziness of the Halloween activities and the weirdos (present company excluded of course) that it brings out.  Just like you don't want to plan to go to Palm Springs over Spring Break if you have an aversion to topless coeds, ya know?
 
Just my $.02, for what it's worth, since I'm not signed up for this one.

We've been to the Valencia RV Park and it's just a big parking lot. They do have a lot of permenant residents, but we were there for the Cowboy Festival and gone during the day. It's close to us tho.

Sorry guys, but we have to cancel. We have had 2 events suddenly come up that we can't miss. One involves our future plans.Moose
