Greg Roshon:
I heard a rumor from some friends riding there today, that there are postings at some of the trail heads, saying that you have to stay at an approved place, or some such in order to ride at Brimstone? Is there any truth to this, is there a list somewhere? We are coming down at the end of February, has there been some change of ownership? We came down twice last year, please clarify if things have changed since the Side by Side roundup.
Brimestone responses to questions being asked.
Brimstone Recreation :
Brimstone is offering a variety of lodging choices which include owned and non-owned facilities. In an effort to expand our offerings and maximize our guests’ experience at Brimstone, we have created an exclusive resort to enhance every aspect of your stay at Brimstone. Guests choices are limited to the partners on the list which include a wide variety of quality lodging types: cabins, campground facilities, hotels, etc. We are partnering with other facilities that are supportive of Brimstone and that want to partner with Brimstone to build it to be a better place in the future. Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this transition. We will be happy to help!
Here is a list of approved lodging: Brimstone Retreats, Grand Vista Hotel, Comfort Inn, Big South Fork, Wilderness Retreats, Cornerstone, Longhorn Ranch, Oneida Guesthouse, Unique Mountain Getaways, Elk Run Cabins---
If you are a local resident you are allowed to ride with a valid band. You are still able to come in and ride and get a visitor's day pass and park in our parking area. Please let us know if you have any other questions! We will be happy to help.
If you check out any resort this is how they operate. Wilderness Resorts in Pigeon Forge would be just one quick example. In order to ride on the Brimtone property, you will need to be staying at a preferred lodging option that is listed above, coming in for a resort visitor day pass, or be a resident. Please let me know if you have any other questions
And the Grand Finale report from Brimestone!
Brimstone Recreation Of all the things that we have to offer here at Brimstone, we have always prided ourselves on our customer service and being 100% about our customers. We have always made every effort to accommodate our riders with whatever they needed since the beginning of Brimstone in March of 2006. “At your service” has always been our policy. We will open early, stay late, order your parts, work on your unit, call you back at 3 a.m., available 24/7, and pull you out of a ditch at any hour, day or night, rain or shine.
With that being said, it should be obvious that our riders are first priority. Any and all decisions that we make here are made with our riders in mind, first and foremost. As a part of our new resort policy, Brimstone is offering a variety of lodging choices which include owned and non-owned facilities. In an effort to expand our offerings and maximize our guests’ experience at Brimstone, we have created an exclusive resort to enhance every aspect of your stay at Brimstone.
We are not controlling our riders and telling them where to stay, we are giving them a choice of many examples of supportive businesses in the area which include a wide variety of quality lodging types: cabins, campground facilities, hotels, etc. We are partnering with other facilities that are supportive of Brimstone and that want to partner with Brimstone to build it to be a better place in the future.
Please trust that this decision was made with great thought and many approaches were considered before we came to our current conclusion about making Brimstone into a resort. We want to make Brimstone the best and ensure that you all will have a place to ride for many years to come.
This is truly the best and most effective way to make this happen. Thank you for your support in this transition. This decision is for our customers to preserve our business for generations to come. We have no choice but to adopt the current policies with those business' that want to support and partner with Brimstone.
Guess I will not be going back to Brimestone. I will be cancelling our group ride in March! Wonoder if they will ever refund my money since they changed the rules after my pass was bought :rollfinger: :rm_thumbdown:
