We're staying at the Marriott, which ain't cheap at $300/night...might be best for future Academies to book a block of rooms ahead of time...this is high season for the three T's...Tournaments, Tourists and Tornadoes (meaning displaced residents):confused:

some towns around there. If you don't mind driving a half hour or so.

Ocoee 15-20 minutes
apopka 20-30

apopka is a little out of the way, but with the evacuee's you might have to stay out that way. you can take the turnpike right down to the back way to the couse. I could show you. I would google map ocn and see the towns around there. Most don't have hotels, but if you do find something I can give you an idea of time and best way to get to the course.

PM me if you have any questions.

I learned that nothing is "close" to OCN, except of course OCN lodge, which of course is booked!...loads of hotels available, just have to take a road trip each morning.

Ocn
 
PJH, OCN is a bit "out in the sticks" you willneed a car but shouldn't be too bad traffic wise -except Friday morning.

Ted Fort and I have just returned this evening from a very exciting and successful LBG Academy at the PGA of Southern California Golf Club and are rarin' to go again. We've got five students confirmed (eight maximum) at Orange County National November 11-13. This is our last Academy of the year, so if you want the maximum 'prep' time for 2006 -- or if you just want to get better now -- reserve your spot by email at lynn@lynnblakegolf.com. Exclusive of the Pivot Components and Extensor Action, there are 38 items to make subconscious, so let's get it on!

As Wanole's and Neil's posts have suggested -- thanks guys! -- there are plenty of inexpensive rooms available. You'll just have to drive a bit since OCN is definitely 'out' there. It's the price paid for high season and enough land to have one of the finest practice (and play) facilities in the world.
