I stayed with Pam O'Dell (Norberge) in an RV on the site -- the windstorms were pretty horrific. The drive down was 24 hours, and the road we took down was closed on the way back because of the snow -- so, perhaps 2 weeks difference may make this site ideal. The venue itself -- really excellent! I agree with Kathleen on this site....it is very dog and exhibitor friendly. The but is the same issue - earlier might be better. We drove in snow all the way through Colorado and New Mexico, and some sleet and ice in north Texas. Nasty drive. The same time of year we would have to rethink doing that one again. Restaurant were plentiful, lots of hotels, lots of grass.
