Hey all! Hope this thread is okay to post here but really, Calvin's Corner and the Joe Hill thread are usually the only areas I frequent(sorry):redface:
I will be visiting the Stanley in Sept without really knowing much about it other than why it's famous of course! Wondering about tours, local things in the area to see, etc? If anyone that's been there could help out I would appreciate it.
Thanks!
This is a good place to start: http://www.stanleyhotel.com/tours.html
Holy cow, I'm also going there this September. Sometime between the 11th and 18th! HA! A friend of mine just toured there and loved it. He's not much of a King fan so he might not have appreciated the place the same way I would. But from the things he was saying that he heard on the tour, you'd think he read Before the Play!Quote:

My advice, don't talk to the shrubbery.

The beer is at the brewery. Just a few blocks away from the hotel.Quote:

Got a tour of the hotel - Room 217 is pretty cool. Estes Park Brewery is a short walk away. While there take half a day and ride through Rocky Mountain National Park - Simply Awesome!
Wish I was going back sometime soon!
