I agree. We stayed at the Territorial Inn in June after some rain. By the time I got off the water, all the parking spots were taken. I couldn't plug my boat in and had to park on the west side of the gravel/mud parking lot in a mud hole on the edge of the field. I was hoping my boat wouldn't get cleaned out.
The rooms weren't the cleanest either and the continental breakfast was eventually set up at 7:30 am. I too would look elsewhere if there are other options...
Stayed at Teddy's this past weekend. Rooms were really nice. Parking for boat trailers was not ideal like they said over the phone....Half the posts in back had power to them and the first night we arrived the spots were all taken. There is a bed and breakfast near the Deep Water landing. I tried getting a place at Van Hook and they only rent by the week for cabins.
I work in New Town, and i'd have to say Teddy's or Little Missouri would be my top choices. Then if those aren't available, Territorial Inn or 4-Bears Casino would be my last resort.
How about a pickup with a camper ? Mounted camper , Not trailer. Can a guy still boondock overnight or are you required to reserve and or rent a camp spot ?
