Lodging recommendations?

[Higgins]

Greetings and salutations! We are trying to plan a trip to your village in Aug. Does anyone have any recommendations as to a decent place to stay? I was considering the Holiday Inn in Belle Vernon but it didn't have a very good review any suggestions? I would like to find somewhere close but not isolated from civilization

Greetings, Higgins! 

M'lord and I have oft lodged at the Comfort Inn in New Stanton.  There are several other options available there, but the Comfort Inn is the only one I have been in.  We have always found it to be clean and quite comfortable. 

We look forward to your visit to our fair shire    Do be sure to stop in at Morgan's Bounty and say hello!

There are several fine places in New Stanton.  I don't know where you're coming from, but New Stanton is a great location.  It's at the intersection of I-70 and I-76, the PA Turnpike.  It's only 6 miles from the faire.

My brother prefers the Fairfield Inn when he comes to visit.  He likes the free breakfast.  There is also a Quality Inn and a Howard Johnson's.  I don't know much about those.  There are also several low-end restaurants nearby.  Most nights after faire you'll see many of the cast at the Eat 'n Park.

There's a Comfort Inn on Route 51 (probably listed as Belle Vernon or Smithton) that's not 6 minutes from the site and absolutely top-notch.  I stayed in it during a "fest emergency" last season and it was gorgeous, clean, well-staffed, friendly, and comfy!
