We're looking forward to CRF as well.  Lady Jai fell in love with it last year- it was our first visit.  She could probably be easily pursuaded to attend twice!  We'll see...

You gotta love a faire that serves Guinness! Very few of them out there.

Indeed, Lady G and I always look forward to our trip South! There is no better way to close out our faire season than here!

When are you going Scotsman?  There's a chance Morwyn and I might hit this faire some time this season.  I have a relative who lives about an hour from the faire grounds.

Lady Guinness and I always go on closing weekend - it is a pretty nice invasion and the weather usually cooperates. This year we are departing on 14 November and returning on the 16th. If you guys decide to come we will make it worth you while ... can you say bottomless tankard?
Also tell Morwyn that last year we stayed at a wicked nice Hilton in Charlotte that I think she would like ... let us know.

There is also a new hotel opening in Davidson at exit 30, Homewood Suites.  It's 15 mins from Faire and about the same from the Galway Hooker at exit 28.

I like Homewood. I stay at the one in Richmond all the time. I gotta be honest, the Hilton @ University Place is really nice and it would be hard to switch after last year and how well they took care of us.

I just checked out the rates and I got 2 Exec suites @ Hilton Univ Place for $30 per night less. I've got to keep what I have - but I will look again for next year. Good to know there is a Hilton property closer to faire. Thanks for sharing.
