eddd Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 We've gotten together before in Silver City, NM in October, and all seemed to enjoy the area's roads and scenery. So let's do it again. Short notice, but here are the basics: Arrive Thursday, October 18, depart Sunday the 21th. I've read up on a few places to stay and decided the Drifter Motel looked interesting. It is an older place, but has good reviews, it's been updated, and has a real restaurant on site where we can order a real breakfast...and that is included with the room. There are other restaurants within walking distance of any of the mentioned motels. Drifter Motel 711 Silver Heights Blvd, Silver City, NM 88061 (575) 538-2916 If you prefer different lodging these three are clustered just a few blocks away: Comfort Inn Quality Inn Motel 6 Link to comment

I considered the Murray and the Palace Hotel, another historic hotel that we stayed at a few years back, but I thought the lack of parking might be an issue for some. They are located in an interesting part of old Silver City. Link to comment
chrisolson Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Yes, as a central meeting hotel it definitely is lacking in parking so probably not a good choice as a group. But since I'm not a big breakfast person, I'm Ok being off the main event path. Link to comment
