Bill, I see how you would have a problem finding the info, the first screen that opened up for me showed the photo I posted but if I went anywhere else on the site I could not get back there? Try this address : hhhsc.net/ don't forget the forward slash that seems to be the trick.

A block of rooms at the Quality Inn in Vestal NY is now available at the same rate ($99.95) as the last few years. Their phone number is 607-729-6371 and when you call tell them your with the Parker group. The date for this years event at Haussmann's Hidden Hollow is 6/7-6/9 and there will be rooms available starting on 6/6 for anyone who needs to arrive early.

Thanks Larry - will we see you and Deb there?

Our room is booked and we are looking forward to seeing everyone there.

Thanks, Larry. I finally located this thread and successfully got in under PGCA. The Quality has nothing on "Northeast Side by Side" as is suggested on Ernie's site. As with the Hampton Inn in Sanford, "Sorry our computers are down". Too bad, but retail and hospitality business in this country has been contracted out to phone banks in foreign countries. Good luck with Josh L's attempt to book the entire Hampton for PGCA in 2019. When we call to reserve a room at the Southern next year, the phone bank person in Pakistan or Las Vegas will give the message to us, "Sorry no rooms available no matter what group you are with. The entire hotel is booked for the weekend." Good luck next April.

What's the rush?

The "Rush" is that the hotel says that the rooms I booked this evening are the last ones available under the block. Further, after spending most of the afternoon getting two rooms booked, I got an email confirmation for one room. Apparently, Ernie's blocked rooms have not been released yet, if they ever will be. Tomorrow morning, I am told to expect an email on my two room confirmation, or maybe it will be three.

Bill,
I called the Hotel this morning and there are still rooms available. There was some confusion at the front desk but the manager assured me they will continue adding rooms to our block until the place is full. Just mention Parker Gun Collectors when calling for the rate listed above.

Adding rooms to the block until the hotel is full is a novel concept. The Hampton in Sanford sells the blocked rooms and the rest of the hotel is booked at $200 a night, too bad you called too late!

A note. When i booked the other day, the guy told me that a credit card number was not needed to reserve the room. BUT... it had to be provided by 4pm on day of check-in. Or the room would be released. So, it would be best to provide a cc number to them when you book.
