I did some research on hotels. This is a nice hotel with large indoor pool. Breakfast Included.
It’s a better rate at $15 per night less if you are a Windham Member so I recommend to join their points club to save you $30 on the 2 nights.
The link to book the hotel is:

Book August 11 and 12 – depart August 13

I have made reservations for restaurants for lunch on August 11, dinners on 11th and 12, lunch on 13 for those of us to caravan back together to Atlanta area.
So please RSVP if you will attend so I get a seat count for the restaurants. Itinerary to be communicated.
