    Question Recommendations for motel accommodations during Factory visit???

    Martin and I will be taking the GD Factory tour October 26. Does anyone have any suggestions on a place to stay while there? I got online to research and it appeared to be somewhat limited, so any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks!

    For somewhere different you might try the Essenhaus Inn & Conference Center
    In Middlebury, about 15-20 minutes from the factory.

    I can't tell you where TO stay.
    However, earlier this month when I went to the Midwest RV Show and did the factory tour (GREAT TIME), I found out the Travel Lodge is NOT where to stay.
    I'll say it again - do NOT stay at the Travel Lodge in Elkhart.

    Hope it helps,

    The campground has some cabins available, log construction and not too bad! We stayed in one while the Grand Design service center did warranty and body work. Refrigerator and microwave only, we believe.

    Thanks for the restaurant recommendation James. That's just as important as the sleeping accommodations! We'll definitely check it out!.
