Ha! I thought I was extremely weird for tracking the costs of our trip!

LOL! Looks like Vern has a heavier foot than Kris!

I missed this post last week. I am the bank for trips (actually my group calls me their travel agent) and I keep all the receipts and then give everyone a summary. Might be a little over the top, but........

Actually I lead and Vern followed me! He had a little more weight behind him than I did.

Lodge rates are resonable. Maybe I should start a new thread but

1. How much are snowmobile rates
2. What if I bring younger kids-are there modest skill level places to go?

I am thinking of family trip over Christmas next year.

I didn't book the trip yet as my buddy Mezz is waiting on some information from the lodge.. I bet we'll book it fairly soon as we all have the itch.

later

We have found a few things initially. It looks like the all inclusive is very expensive. For about a week it is $1,000 per person, and that includes breakfast, dinner, happy hour and a guide. The rooms would run about 199 a night or so and you get 4 in there. To me the grand for the package that doesn't include the room seems steep. Maybe I'm just cheap, but that seems high to me.

Anyone use the all inclusive?? Or just go solo and pay as you go?

Lets see: $139.00 per day * 7 days = $973.00 vs. $1000.00 per week? What, a $27.00 difference? Close enuf for horseshoes or hand grenades?

Unless … the $1000.00 "all inclusive" rate really does not include a room? That doesn't sound so "all inclusive" to me. That's ridiculous!

M8man, like I said in this thread, they may not have the package rates yet from Corporate. Last year when I called them around this early, they hadn't gotten the rates in from Aramark yet. Corp dictates those rates to TML. Since they didn't have those rates yet, they quoted me an astronomical rate of like $190/person/day. Did you ask them if they have the 2010-2011 package $s yet? I'd be willing to bet from my experience last year they do not.

The not including the room in that rate does sounds screwy and likely the someone you talked hasn't a clue. Did you talk with the front desk manager?

I learned through experience to not call the 800 number that sends you to an operator for Aramark in Phoenix. I suggest that you call the lodge at (307) 543-2847 and ask them about 2010-2011 package pricing.

Finally got a good answer. Thanks to the people on here with a special mention to Joe (winter_time) for some direct info. We did get some stuff set and woooo hoooo. Someone gave us wrong info. It is a tad under a grand for a week out there with all the goodies. I sure hope it all works out. Thanks to all who helped and our deposit should go shortly.

Thanks again, and I really appreciate the help

Hey Kris, did you get 2 numbers mixed up? Togwotee Lodge direct is 307-543-2847. Talk to Derek. The last four you wrote were my cell last four. LOL.. About the rates, the rates posted are basic high end rates to get an early feel for the winter. They include no discounts or specials. These will come later. Derek did some quick math and came up with around $160 a nite per person in a lodge room. For those of you still confused, a package rate is an all inclusive rate. This means: room,breakfast,happy hour, dinner, guide. Always been that way. If you guys have questions dump them on here for me. I can always find the right answer. Ain't that right Paul.... You can piece together a " cabin only rate " to pick and choose, but you will find it's not a deal. You come to ride the snow and thats where the guide comes in. Just ask this forum about the guides process. In a piece together rate the guide add on is $60 per person plus tip and that $60 is a big one when you compare to a package rate deal. So, hope this helps, and if not, ask away...

Oh yea! The key is to pace yourself, I have not learned that yet, it is hard to do, but try not to out and giver heck the first day or two. If you do, you may be wiped out by day three. :) The last time we were out we rode half day on Saturday, all day Mon, Tue, Wed, and Thursday. Headed home that Friday morning, fricken whipped, tired, beat down, but man was it worth it!
