Due to this special price The Resort at Governor’s Crossing will discontinue during the month of October selling the wrist band tickets, as these tickets are not set up for this program. This also means that we will not be able to allow you to build custom packages using the NASCAR tickets on our web site, but you will still be able to purchase tickets at the park.
We thank NASCAR Speedpark for notifying us in advance so we can pass this special offer on to our guests at The Resort. These special prices in effect Oct. 1, 2011 till Oct. 31, 2011. Check NASCAR Speedpark’s schedule for days & hours of operation.

The Resort at Governor’s Crossing now offers you the opportunity to receive text messages of late breaking special rates. Today’s technology affords us the ability to make plans and travel at the last minute deciding on a weekend getaway or a family vacation just days or even hours in advance.
With weather & road conditions, cancelations and other outside factors we sometimes end up with vacant units we need to rent. Many third party travel sites advertise on TV and other media that they can give you these rooms at big (giant) discounts. They are right, we are forced to give them giant discounts, they then mark up the room and offer it to you for a big profit for the travel site. The savings is to them, not you the consumer. So, The Resort has offered to text you discounted rates and let you reap the rewards when we have too many units left to rent.
These offers will be last second, usually no more than 2-7 days before arrival, some times even arrival that day and will only be offered via text message. The rates will be date and unit type specific, good till that room type is sold out for the specified dates. The offer can not be applied to any other room type or dates and cannot be combined with any other promotions, coupons or discounts.
To participate in this program text Slide (think of our water slides) to 62447. Every time we post a new special rate you will receive a text from us with a toll free phone number to reserve your unit. Texts will be limited to no more than 12 per month, your carrier’s text and data rates will apply. Just text Slide to 62447 to join this new program.
