The room reminded me of a well-planned, oversized dorm room. The EAA does things up very nicely. The EAA also recognizes it has to charge appropriately to keep things up, so the weekend experience certainly isn't cheap, but it was not nearly as expensive as a family weekend, with meals, at a decent hotel. I was to discover that the pleasant accommodations were a reflection of the overall quality of the experience. I certainly felt my family got its money's worth and more.
Cost is according to the number of family members attending.
That could change with time, so be sure and check. Dinner was served in the great room of the Lodge soon after we arrived. Naturally, as the six families didn't know each other, seating Friday evening was by family. That changed by Saturday morning with the kids creating a kid's table where they ate amid great enthusiasm. The food was outstanding.
