Esprit de Corps! Our lodging mission is to drive as many rooms as close as possible to USMA. Our social coordinator, Deb Reast, and our AOG representative, Lexie Davis, have performed an exhaustive search for available lodging in the area and have created the attached spreadsheet below. For the convenience of less-experienced spreadsheet users it is tabbed by room availability(updated regularly between now and the reunion), an alpha listing, lodging miles from USMA, lodging drive time to USMA and lodging rates.
Please visit the websites of the lodging sites you are considering. Also included are several bed & breakfast lodges. These work especially well for small groups of (company or team) classmates who prefer a place to themselves.
Also for your consideration is VRBO.com. This is a website dedicated to renting out homes of varying sizes from cottages to estates. You will have all the amenities of home because it is, in fact, someone’s home. Some homes will sleep only 2-4 people while other homes can accommodate a dozen or more folks.
Please make a reservation ASAP. Even if the first option is a room at the Thayer, consider making a plan B reservation now and you can cancel later once your Thayer room is reserved. October on the Hudson is a very busy time, as every proprietor has reiterated. Hotels within 30 minutes of West Point are limited and rooms sell out early. Right now there are excellent choices available to us.
Making a reservation as soon as possible is suggested. Every hotel and B&B has a cancellation policy, in the unlikely event your plans change.
Looking forward to a great Legacy Reunion! Esprit de Corps!
