Inca Inn - Special NAXJA Rates!

[Vince]

I just received an email from Markus confirming special NAXJA room rates for the Fall Fling. Offer is for bookings received before January 31st 2008.


Hi Vincent

Great to hear/read from you!... <snip>
...I remember that we talked about your club and event in October and I would like to answer your questions as follows:

- Yes, we are able to take bookings at our official motel reservations email
address: reservations@incainn.com . Since we have no direct access to the booking system we have to communicate and check with the current owners.
This might take a few days.

- At this time we have 22 rooms available from October 5th to 11th. We will also have rooms available before and after those dates, but would have to verify with exact dates. Since the first week of October is usually a very busy week and rooms will start to fill up soon, we will be able to hold the rooms until December 31st. After this date we will start to give away the rooms upon incoming requests.

- The regular rate at this time is $59.95 plus tax. AAA-Rate would be $54.95 plus tax. For definite bookings before January 31st 2008 we can offer a special rate for the NAXJA-members of $49.95 plus tax. The rate includes one room with one King or two Queen beds, two people and expanded continental breakfast. Each additional adult in the same room is $6 per night plus tax (children under 12 are $3).

- We would prefer to accept bookings through our Reservation-Form on the
website: http://www.incainn.com/ and NAXJA members shall please make a note in the comment. We also could accept a group reservation but would have to apply a 30-day cancellation policy with valid credit card information to charge in case of late cancellations.

We would be very happy not only to host some of the NAXJA members but also to meet you again in October. Whether I will be able to run one trail or not, I can not tell at this time.

Thank you very much.

Best regards,

Daniela & Markus Heimgartner

excellent rate, i may be changing my reservations ;)

Thanks Vince!

[Vince]

I've only been living in Switzerland since August and I buy freshly made Swiss bread almost every day here. It really does taste good. I better warn Markus ahead of time that I'm likely to consume a lot.

[johnnyc]

Thanks for the PM Vince!

I just made my reservation for October 5-11.

That continental breakfast looks 100x better than the one at the Bowen Motel. :)

And just to let everyone know, the Inca Inn is directly adjacent to the La Hacienda restaurant, which many consider to be the best Mexican place in Moab. And the motel is just over a mile from the headquarters at Slickrock Campground.

[Vince]

And it's close enough to stumble back from some of the other bars in town.

[IntrepidXJ]

ok....i ended up switching my reservations over to Inca for this trip.

[Vince]

I received and email last night from Markus and Daniela. They have improved their NAXJA offer for anyone that wants to stay longer than the 11th.

"we will only apply the regular rate for the nights before October 5th. For people staying longer than October 11th we will apply also the discounted NAXJA rate."

[Handlebars]

It sounds like good company, I am thinking about changing my reservation.

Is there anyplace to cook a simple meal there? It would just be a single burner Coleman stove. Do any of the rooms have kitchenettes? I usually don't eat out more than a few times in a week at Moab because it adds up quick.

[FELIX]

Just got my confirmation. Thanks for the heads up

Rob

[Wayne Sihler]

I,m in at the INN,from the 6-12.See you there.
Wayne

[G.Nenzel]

Thanks for the hook up! First out of town wheeling trip, figured Moab would be a good place to start.

Can't wait, I'm in for the 6th - 14th.

[DaveW]

Great rate. :thumbup: Thanks to Vince, Markus and Daniela.

[jwtrapper]

- we'll see if there's any room left at the inn (maybe they have a manger!)

I'll admit it - I'm getting too old to sleep on the dirt at Slickrock. At least Inca's close enough to still enjoy the after trail "refreshments" and fires.

Sure, and I suspect that the 2,3,4, . . . . ones are on me, right?

No matter, my USAF buddy. As usual, I'll be transporting a few cases of some good german brew that only makes it a few miles past East Coast ports. More room now that the camping gear is being left behind.

Retired! :thumbup:

[mattyj]

just placed my reservation for October 6-12 and for EJS March 18-23.

[JeepFreak21]

I just made my reservation...

Just an FYI... the reservation form on their website is NOT SECURE. I would highly suggest not putting your CC info in their. Markus said they would be available to take CC info by phone after 1/21. Just put the best time to call you in the comment section and leave the CC info blank.

Yikes, missed that one :doh:. Good thing I keep an eye on my bills.

Thanks

[SharkXJ]

Well - just put in my request. If they don't have anything available, what are our other options?

[IntrepidXJ]

Thanks......

Thanks......

I heard that as of yesterday they had 3 or 4 rooms left. No more king beds though :moon:
Billy

[SharkXJ]

Just heard back - my reservation is set from 10/5 thru 10/12 :-)

Not a bad price at all :-)

[IslanderOffRoad]

I guess I better call and reserve tomorrow morning

[IslanderOffRoad]

Their phone number says they are still closed.

[IntrepidXJ]

Their phone number says they are still closed.

they are closed (for the season)......i think the form on their website is the only way to contact them right now

[IslanderOffRoad]

Went ahead and reserved through the site and they got back to me very quickly. I'm reserved for Oct 6-10th.

[Vince]

I thought I would ask Markus how many rooms he has left before the special rate expires on Jan 31st. He sent me this a few hours ago:-

We only have 3 rooms left for Oct 5 - 12:
- 1 room with two Double beds
- 2 rooms with two Queen beds

[Rob Mayercik]

Well, I just put in a request to see if anything's still left, have to see what I get in response.

[Goatman]

It should be a fun time over there with the whole motel filled with NAXJA peeps for a week. :cheers:

[lesslimited]

We'll be there, but I'm wondering about parking for tow rigs and trailers.

Would that be the gravel/dirt area up behind the Inn? Anyone know?

[johnnyc]

Looking on Google Earth, I do see the dirt lot behind the motel. Looks like the entrance is off to the side of the La Hacienda restaurant.

Call Markus at the Inca Inn and ask him.

[rpraterxj]

I just put in my resv for the week. Hopefully I get one of the last rooms...

You'll know shortly, they got back to me within 2 hours of making a reservation online.

There's a good view of that area in the photo gallery section of the website (when they take a pic from behind the motel) - hopefully that's a part of their property (or one we're allowed to use) - doesn't look like any room in the main lot.

(Either that, or maybe some "friendly" Moab NAXJA member wants to lease out his yard for a week???)

MG

[johnnyc]

Or just park it behind the cabins at Slickrock Campground. Nobody will know. :)

Whats a tow rig? Mine's driving out all 11 hours of it (hopefully).

[rpraterxj]

Yep. I got an email within the hour of posting. They are booked for the weekend of the 11th so I have to find something else for the last 2 nights. Oh well, there could be a cancellation between now and then.

[Mike in NJ]

Wow - a whole 11 hours? Think you can hold up? :looney:

After a half dozen trips or so West - and an average of 35 driving hours each way - my poor little XJ has paid its dues and earned a ride on the trailer behind it's V8-ZJ big brother.

I've never taken her that far before. Usually my Accord gets long trip duty. But my Accord wouldn't be fun in Moab.

I wouldn't be too sure about that :D I've always been curious how a passenger vehicle would do on Hells Revenge :D

I think I would me more scared of the ride behind a ZJ. Tried that once and it scared the crap out of me. Not really the best tow rig out there.

OK - I'm listening. My 5.2 with a Class IV hitch is rated at 6500. I have a nice 1200 lb dual axle, electric brake flatbed trailer available and I figured "what the heck"??!!!

. . . . the total package will be within tolerances and if I'm REAL careful coming down out of Eisenhower tunnel . . . .

I tow a boat and have a CDL-A, so driving a combo doesn't bother me, but I will admit that this will be the first time I was planning to spoil the XJ and not drive it to Utah - what am I missing? :dunno:

Nothing, you'll be fine. You have brakes on the trailer, and your XJ is likely much lighter than many of us who have a bunch of bigger axles and body armor.

Trailering, huh, Mike? What's this world coming to......? :D

If you feel comfortable doing it...go for it.

I had a ZJ. Tried towing my jeep and it scared the hell out of me. I also have a Class A CDL.

Once you said that I felt a little better about it. Obviously you know more then most about weight distribution and what not. Still though...thats a big load for a little tow rig.

[sidriptide]

not too good i assume. i got a negative RTI ramp score with my Camry because i couldnt even get a tire on it i actually pushed the ramp with my front bumper. :doh:

Jeez, Richard - she's put on a few pounds (as have I) since my first (stock) Fall Fling excursion in 2000! You're telling me you never noticed over the years??? I'm not sure if there's a put-down in there on Jersey wheeling or not! :bawl:

And remember, I have a Turner-special front bumper - and Utah steel is very, very dense! (or, was it the fabricator who is very, very dense - can't remember). Then again, my skids and rockrails are not built of 3/4" steel plate like yours, and my 44 is just a toothpick compared to those on the Goatzilla - maybe you're right.

Anyway, thanks for the encouragement. I understood the Dr's concern about the ZJ pulling plan, and am still a bit skeptical about it. But, I see that V-8 sitting out there in the driveway and would sure like to justify it's gas guzzling appetite. And receive all those admiring glances from passing traffic as I head West with the "sorta-big" red XJ perched up on the flatbed!!! :D

Looking forward to it.

[Handlebars]

Mike, better to have you there in one piece than in your Cherokee. You woldn't be the first NAXJA member to wheel a Grand at the Fall Fling!

[Rob Mayercik]

Well, I just put in a request to see if anything's still left, have to see what I get in response.

Well, I never got around to posting an update, but I did get a room at the Inca.

Rob

[jwtrapper]

Well I have to cancel my reservations, I'm buying a house so my vacation money is going to closing costs. So does someone want my reservations? I had the family room booked.

I am interested! Shoot me a PM with the info.

Thanks a ton! Congrats on the house!

[jwtrapper]

Well my reservations where canceled so there is an open spot now.

[lesslimited]

MG

OK, I just e-mailed Markus to cancel the week I had reserved before the Fling ( we're going to Sedona that week instead ), and asked him about the parking. He said that there is one spot per room, and we would need to make our own arrangements for additional parking.

I still don't know whether I'll be towing my 92, towing Cindy's, driving Cindy's, or driving my 94, but I would like to have all options open. Can we park at Slickrock, perhaps for a small fee? Or in one of our local member's yards?

Has anyone found anywhere else to park tow rigs and trailers? My junk is streetable so I just don't want the truck and trailer to get molested while I'm away from it.

[mikedashg]

I just got my reservations from someone else. They cancelled, and I called in and took their reservation. They did say it was 49.95 plus tax, but the only thing left was two doubles.

I'll be there Wed-Sat pm

[DaveW]

I had to change my reservation at Inca Inn.
Just in case anyone might need a room for those days.
I canceled 3 nights that week 5-7.
