In a few weeks I'm hoping to take a long weekend and ride around in
the Ozark Mountains. I'm looking for recommendations for a bike
resort/motel. I've found the Hub and the Rider's Rest; any others?
I expected more choices. If you've stayed at any of them, I'd
appreciate a short review.
TIA,

Sorry I can't help with a specific place, but does it have to be a
bike-oriented resort/motel? I can understand the desire to stay
somewhere that is bike-friendly, and hang out with other riders,
and I have done when I went to the Dragon a couple of times, but
I'll take a nice clean mom and pop general purpose motel anytime
over someplace that has below par amenities but advertises itself
as a bike-friendly/bike-themed place, as if that should excuse
moldy showers, crappy beds, etc. Not that I am saying either of
those places (I haven't looked) fit into that category.

I'm not wedded to an MC resort but I'm just now starting to look
for accomodations and that is what came to mind first.

Understood. I am genuinely interested in planning a trip down there next
year (or maybe in a few weeks also!) so I look forward to any and all 1st
hand reports re: places to stay.
