Off-Roadeo Northeast - here are a few tips \ info

[Lewisj41]

Just booked September 11. I'm probably going to make it a long day trip since gun stock is less than 2 hours away

I too booked the 11th but may have to change that date....we could have hung out together as complete strangers, thats not weird is it?

I have tried several times today and I can not make a reservation. I filled out all of the information and submitted everything.

I receive the message that: " You currently do not have any verified vehicles that are eligible for a credit towards the Bronco Off-Roadeo experience. Details on reservation availability and event costs for all Bronco prospective owners and previous Off-Roadeo attendees will be announced soon. Stay tuned! ".

I sent an email to the main site and no response at all?

Do you have a reservation that was converted to an order? I would log into your Ford account and make sure it shows there.

A loop hole around this is I converted my order to a priority 99 assuming I'm getting a 22MY.

It's only as weird as you make it. I'm cool with hanging out with strangers. B6G IRL!

Yes: I have an order in and have a copy of the order form and the emails from Ford stating that they have my order.

It does not show on my Ford Pass account for some reason?

Change fees are $150.

Change fees are $150.

Spoke with representative and they were willing to work with me on editing my reservation since no disclosure was listed prior to reservation on 150$ fee within 60 days.

The Northeast location is hosted at Gunstock Mountain in Gilford, NH. This is a great family oriented destination that offers many different adventures. The mountain overlooks Lake Winnipesaukee, which is the largest lake in NH. It's located about 1 hour from Manchester Airport, which is well supported by Southwest Airlines, American, Spirit and Delta. There's a nearby performance venue that hosts national music acts, "Bank of NH Pavilion", formally Meadowbrook. For people wanting to make a vacation out of their trip, the NH & Maine beaches are about 1.5 hours away, Boston is about 2 hours away, and Mt. Washington is about 1.5 hours away.

I have a Lake house that is 50 Min away, and believe that this location is one of the nicest destinations in the Northeast. If you have a camper or RV, you can stay at the Gunstock Campground right on site! (I WOULD RESERVE FIRST, it's not that big!) For the kids, you're 10 min. from go-kart tracks, water slides, one of the largest arcades in America. I hope this helps people from outside of New England. I'll try to answer questions and help out as time allows.

P.S. I'm booked for Sept 25th, and I'll be staying in the campground in my Classic GMC Motorhome. Good luck everyone!

Brian,
Do you happen to know the exact location of the course? A fellow 6g member looked all around the Gunstock resort last weekend and saw no indication of an off-road course.

Thanks for all the info. My GF was looking at the map and said “what about Bob?” Didn’t get there reference till I saw the lake.
Reserved Aug 16. Will be driving over from our cabin in Bethel Maine. Trying to decide whether to bring everyone or not. We have a dog along so that makes it a bit tougher. May just solo so I can geek out and not worry about it.

Like yourself, I am booked for August 16. I have my dog booked at a kennel. Wish he could ride with me! Tent camping the night before and the night of at Gunstock Campground. We should share a beer/meal in the pub at Gunstock if you have time.

I do not. I'm wondering if there's a short drive involved, but that would be a nightmare. They must be using ski trails and access roads.

The email I received after the booking spoke about details arriving later regarding the location of the venue!
When I booked the camp site they knew nothing. A mystery?!

Can't wait! I plan on going the first or second week of October. Staying at a relative's cabin northwest of Lake Winnipesaukee and plan on staying for a week or so to do some camping and hoping to hike and summit Mt. Washington If anyone with any further experience hiking around there, let me know if the second week of October would be too late to hike Mt. Washington or if that's right around the timeframe when the weather gets too unpredictable, definitely don't want to go any later than that. Hoping to catch the trees in full color change

Booked Sept. 5 for myself and the wife! We're already going to be in Gilford that weekend for an Alanis Morissette concert. So, dumb luck for me!

Hope to see some folks from the Forum there!

Really appreciate the write up. Still trying to decide when I’d like to go, and this certainly helps with logistics planning.
