If the Canadian border gets closed again due to Covid, I will be there. Sounds like a great time.

It doesn't look like there will be any camping for those not in period correct attire or campsite. Am I reading it wrong?

Not onsite. There is a modern campground about 10 minutes away in Defiance. The link for all lodging options is near the bottom or the webpage.

 

[BobV9691]

The only question I can't answer is tin tipi's, there is a large parking area but I'll have to as about what can be parted there.

There is a large parking lot. But we are limiting tin campers to only vendors that traveled from out of state. Only room for a few. 10 minutes away is a full service campground.

@BobV9691 ,

Is there lodging nearby, like motels or B&Bs? I sure would like to come to this event. Not sure I'll be up for camping on site, although I can probably bring my own plate, spoon, and tin cup if @andy52 has enough venison stew...

@Notchy Bob I looked some around there and Chesterfield is about 25 miles away. There seems to be quite a few places there to stay but they aint real cheap. about 100.00 a night

Yes, but here's the rub on that one you have to register as a visitor to be able to stay in camp past 4:00 PM. I really find it kinda' nice that the camp will be closed to outsiders at that time. I've been to many rendezvous were people just wander into camp at all hours of the night drunk and loud.

Good location you'll get people just as they walk in and still have money in their pockets..

I'll probably be staying in/near Chesterfield, as I'll be on the return leg of the Spring Turkey trip. Traveling with my wife and our dog, so camping won't be in the cards. Need to figure out the visitor registration though.

No registration needed/required for Visitors.

There was a comment earlier in the thread about registering as a visitor, to stay past 4pm. ??
