3. Take advantage of specials before they are gone.
   
4. Have your choice of  two lodging venues.
   
5. Our cancellation policy is fair.
   
6. We take all credit cards.
   
7. Surprise friends and family with a holiday gift.
   
8. Get discount prices on auto rentals, and airfares by booking those early.
   
9. Book the entire lodge by 12/31 and get a free trip!
