After FURTHUR reading....it sounds like we gotta hit the entrance and back track.....i hope i am wrong but i dont see them slowing things down to peel off GA RV at the turn......it would really slow down the (s)VIPs and others.Aug 28, 2014 22:54:08 GMT -5 Mikey said:Took me a while to understand what they are trying to say. But once you are on Oak Ridge Road South, you will follow it all the way around the Festival to Digg Mountain Road. this is where all the RVs, Car Camping, VIP entered last year.
My hope is that they dont make all the GA RV follow this route to the toll booth and the back track to the RV Ridge Entrance...... I would hope GA RV can just enter RV Ridge/Gate where Oak Ridge road changes from South to West.
PW: You got It, please allow us GA RV folks to simply enter the GARV area without first going to Diggs Mountain Rd. Only mountain I want is on the moon!

I think you are right. everything shows no "toll booth" on the east side of oak ridge rd. RVs seem to be getting a break coming in the VIP way as is. If they we allowed in on the east it could create a bottleneck for VIPs back there.

As you come down Rt29 to Lovingston, there is a small shopping center on your right at the light. It has a Food Lion, MacD etc. it's only ten minutes from a Lockn, might be a good place to meet and buy more beer.Aug 28, 2014 22:16:09 GMT -5 Loonyj said:Hey now, we're coming in from as far away as Maine, and Chicago. We're all in RV's and want to go in together. Last year we camped out in line in what they're calling the Outfield this year. Is there some place along 653 to assemble our troops and perhaps chill for a few hours.
If you know any place let us know please.
thnx

take a look at a Lovingston on the satellite view in google maps. The shopping center is on the west side of 29.

I doubt it... These are rural VA roads....No where to pull off or private property.Aug 28, 2014 22:16:09 GMT -5 Loonyj said:Hey now, we're coming in from as far away as Maine, and Chicago.

Best suggestion is to find a WalMart in Charlottesville to hang/overnight and then head south to Lockn (35-45 mins).
There isn't much near Oak Ridge Estates.
