• Take a RIGHT before the sign and follow road straight up the hill past one building and go until you come to a round-a-bout to the Main Lodge for check-in.
• At the desk, we will (assuming they let us) put up a sign for Team Shack Chicago in the lobby with our Room #’s and your assignment. Depending on when you arrive, the staff will either give you a key, or direct you to where our condo’s can be found. We will also leave them a walkie talkie so you may contact us when you arrive and either Joe or I or both of us will be on the other end so you can find us! Our condos are only a few hundred feet away from the main lodge…You can also try us on our cell phones, but cell service is sketchy at best. If we can’t be reached on our cell phones and you have your own walkie talkie, we’ll have ours set to main channel 2, sub channel 2.
