There is "No drinking" on the site... said the GTI employee holding a beer.

I love this guy... ^

Anybody who's gone there before...

Any other hotels in the area?

Days Inn (besides the scary reviews) is totally booked and so is the other one in town. Another about 26 miles away doesn't even exist anymore... So... Is the only choice driving an hour from Augusta if we don't want to camp?

[Sisu 288]

I just found there's a bunch of hotels near Aiken SC... Makes the drive about 45-50 mins but meh

[Bash 136]

It's mostly flat and easy driving. FYI

If you don't mind "not showering" camping on the AO is not bad at all.

"During" the evolution is the key word

I don't mind being a total girl about this... A nice shower and a bed are definitely a plus if anyone wants me to be a normal human being the next day...

I'll be carpooling with someone but theyre staying at a hotel and Im camping on site alone. What are some recomended items that I shoud have besides like a tent and sleeping bag?

Baby wipes, twice the amount of water you think you need. Cot would be a bonus but not a necessity. Camp chair is also a nice comfort item. A set of flip flops or shower shoes so your not in boots the whole time. A change of loose fitting cloths to relax in. Extra water.

Where exactly is the camping area?

[Rambro25 4]

Also, will there be a spot we can charge batteries at?

[Dave 781]

Hey bud.  There's a pretty sweet little charger that attaches directly to a car battery.  You could try asking around and see if someone has one (not a bad way to make money).

I will bring an extra power inverter if you need to use one
