I'll be driving down from Buffalo-ish on Thursday night, and am looking for a place within a 2-hour drive of Arrington to stay over and charge up before heading to Lockn on Friday. Maybe a place with something funky I could see on Friday morning before haulin' ass to the fest.

I see there are interesting places to stay in the mountains. Any that anyone would highly recommend? Restaurants, sites to see, any tips for places north of Arrington would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

	This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill—the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill—you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Remember: all I'm offering is the truth. Nothing more. What happens if I take both?

Call, don't book online, the owner cut me a sweet deal for not booking through the online service.
