Paul,

Did they confirm they will accept packages as well? Is that service only
offered to guests staying at the resort?
I'm trying to keep my on trail expenses low, so I'm skipping as many hotel
stays as possible. I'd like to resupply here though. Maybe they offer a "can
I use 2 trees behind the building" rate? ;)
