At first they said that they didn't have room rates set yet, bu then I told them that I was going to be there for the triathlon. They had room rates for that and booked 2 for me right then. My dad called a few days later and told them the same thing and was able to book a room for himself too. |

So I think I have 2 rooms but no proof. |

Maybe try calling at a different time of the day - maybe you can get someone else on the line....or tell them that you know someone who did reserve rooms, gave a credit card and got a confirmation number. Heck, they even charged me 50% already. |

Master 1327 Ann Arbor, Michigan | Subject: RE: Ironman race at Cedar Point OMG, I did it! I made a rez!!! You know what this means now? I have to do it The king bed rooms are $120. Two doubles are much more. The cottages are $185, but sleep more folks. I was dying to know how much the other properties/rooms were, but I didn't want to badger the lady. Just FYI, I was chatting with her and she said they had quite a number of reservations already considering it was a year out!! The took my CC# and charged 1 night (which I don't care really) cancellable from today till 3 days out. I know, I know, they have my money for a year, but whatev. It's a great deal on the room considering regular rates are close to $250. Edited by travljini 2009-09-09 1:21 PM |

If you are thinking of doing it, and you already know that I am thinking of doing it... our significant others will not really be likely to accompany us, so if you'd like to share a room let me know. I'll bring the nipples! |

And they gave me a confirmation number (both over the phone and in a email) but they refuse to give me a price or take my credit card number. So... I'm happy! I've got 2 rooms at the "normal" rate and can cancel at any time for free. |

Expert 1452 Troy, MI | Subject: RE: Ironman race at Cedar Point OMG, I did it! I made a rez!!! Okay, Andrea, you are infectious with your enthusiasm. I booked a double at Breakers for 2 nights ($195 for both nights). They didn't need 1 night payment, its not required until Jan. 31, to hold. After that Jan 31 payment is made then there is a $50 cancellation fee. Interesting how I got different story than you? (double more expensive, and can cancel until 3 days before without penalty). Any way, it might be doable as a goal and I have until Jan 31 to decide if I want to pull that trigger. And if the hubby doesn't want to join me, then I'll have an extra bed if anyone wants to share.
