We quickly learned that December is not the time to look for accommodations. We found a private home in Cambellsville KY that was less than 200 per day and was very nice. The downside is that it was 100+ miles from the track and the commute was not enjoyable. Live and learn, I booked this week in a motel in Indiana 30 minutes from the track. I told my daughter that this will help keep me alive since there is always another Derby to attend next year

Glad you enjoyed it. Did you happen to notice Sirius/Xm radio celebrity Steve Byk patrolling the turf and video taping the start of the Oaks?
