I booked a Saturday night at DLH for $109.00 and $89.00 a night for Sun-Wed. If you want to stay at the Grand, I believe it was $199 for FRI/SAT night and $179 for Sun & weekdays. Didn't really feel like coughing up the "extra" cash when I can get a rate like $89 a night.

Originally Posted By MickeyMommy I wanted to go for the holiday weekend - we were there last year that weekend, and it was great! We stayed at the DLH, and had the cove pools all to ourselves. The crowds were very low. I think of all the holiday weekends, MLK is the best crowd wise. I have a conference that weekend this year so we will go at the end of January - 27th - 29th. Two weeks from today I will be checking into the GCH. I have only stayed there once before - in May 2001. I am so excited to again!! This is my very favorite time of year at DL! I sure am hoping for good weather.
