We have received a message from Laila at Rivers Edge Treehouses letting us know that they still have a couple units left.
Rivers Edge Treehouses are just a mile from the middle of Robbinsville and only 21 miles from Fontana Village. Each Treehouse includes a king bed, microwave, mini-fridge, heat & air, satellite TV, and free wifi. There are private porches on each unit and covered parking beneath every single treehouse.
We have heard from Fontana Village on the status of our room block – there are only FOUR rooms left on our massive block for MATG XXII!
The rooms are Fireplace Rooms with King Size beds in the Lodge building and are priced at only $119 per night + tax. This is an incredible chance if you were on the fence about attending this year, or haven’t made your lodging reservations yet. You guys are extra excited for MATG this year, as are we!
Remember to call Fontana Village directly at (828) 498-2211 and mention Miatas At The Gap to book your discounted room.
After the holiday break, we have only 183 days left to prepare for MATG XXII.
I spoke with Fontana Village the there are still a few rooms and cabins available:
3 lodge rooms with 2 queen beds apiece
5 lodge rooms with a fireplace
2 two bedroom Hickory cabins
2 two bedroom Azalea Deluxe cabins
1 three bedroom Hemlock cabin
2 three bedroom Magnolia cabins

After a phone call to Fontana Village, we already have filled more than 60% of our room block. Many of the unit types are already filled and no longer available.
I have updated the MATG Forum to reflect the current availability. It also includes a description of each room/cabin as well as the discounted price. As a reminder, you MUST CALL Fontana directly and tell them you’re with Miatas at the Gap in order to get the discounted pricing for the rooms. 828-498-2100

One last sappy post for a while, we think. What was your favorite memory of this year’s event? Maybe it was something from a few years ago that has slipped our thoughts over the years would work as well.
Reservations at ground zero, Fontana Village, are filling up fast. You guys seem to be as excited about MATG XXII as we are, 43% of our room block is already full and it doesn’t seem to be slowing down. It’s always easier to talk with the vendors or walk to the beer and wine swap staying in the village.
Remember to call and mention Miatas at the Gap for the special rates and to waive the resort fees. Visit www.fontanavillage.com to pick out your room or cabin and then call them at 828-498-2211 to make your reservation.
