Need your input on Nantahala Village...

I know that one of the employees mentioned that they were looking into paving all the roads at the resort itself, so that would be amazing.

Maybe they could leave the "game room" open, and not lock it up when they close the lodge for the night.

If they're going to open the tennis court etc to parking, then they should put in some kind of stairs from it to the lodge. I don't remember seeing any (maybe I just didn't notice). In fact, stairs / paths connecting all the cabins would be very helpful. with how spread out you are to friends sometimes.

Trash cans 100%

We had a decent experience. Our only complaint was more to do with the age of the cabin than the quality of the experience. You felt drunk walking through the cabin because the whole thing was leaning to the rear... If you tripped, you'd probably stumble through to the back door... lol

The staff was much better than years past.

I thought the owner was great; it was obvious that he found our group very important. He seemed to be at the event the entire time, mingling with the attendees, pouring beer at the bar if someone wanted it, and giving advice on what to do in the area. I was very impressed with him.

My only complaint is something I don't know that he can do anything about, and thats space to put us all. There were more cars at the Microtel than I have ever seen this year, including mine. If we were all able to be in the same place it would make for a more cohesive event, IMO. If anything, I would suggest that he evaluate his existing area and see if he can add more cabins. This kind of falls into the category as what Redozen said about the condition of some of the cabins; if its time to replace them see if you can pack in more.

OH and WIFI would be badass
