I believe that I will be heading south for the February races at Volusia and Bubba..Can some of you give me advice on where to stay and where to stay away from. Trying to figure out hotel/motel accommodations that are very affordable don't need luxury just clean and functionally safe....Wouldn't mind being closer to daytona beach area...

Well unless you stay up around ocala, and even there it's not cheap, all the hotel's raise there prices during speedweeks. -
Save your money and support your local tracks when they openComment

Word of advice, don't say anything about changing the dates of Speedweeks!! To get away from Nascar and high prices! Some of the worst ones are still on here!! We have paid good $$ for some really rough places in the last few years! Hope we can stay away this year! Yet to be determined!! The National 100 may help or hurt that though!!Originally posted by dirtcrazy4u View PostComment

A trip to Florida speedweeks is well worth it. I don't think most of the Motel prices are that bad, other than in Daytona. A few years ago I stayed at the Highland Park Fish Camp in Deland. They have decent priced campsites and cabins. It's fairly close to Volusia and Daytona. You can also camp at Volusia for free if you are inclined to do that.Comment

That may seem true but it's a treat to watch the best of the best down south.Originally posted by matdaddy View PostComment

You need to do something soon if you’re serious. Do your homework and look around on airb&b or the equivalent. Stay as far away from Daytona as is feasible for your situation and needs. Your going to get the best deals more towards the middle of the state if you can make that work. We’re set up in an airb&b home near Lake George and it will cost us right at $100.00 a night. You’re not going to get anything acceptable for much less. The airb&b deal allows for you to cook some of you meals at your place!Originally posted by lazyifoto View Post

I stay at the Tropic Shores in Daytona Beach Shores. It is a condo, most rooms are one bedrooms, the couch in the living room also makes a bed. Lots of common space to move around, has a large area for watching T.V.., etc.. Rates are not bad. Several good restaurants within a mile or so.Comment

Clean & Inexpensive, the Dinner Bell Motel.
We made our first speed weeks last year for the USAC races at Bubba. We stayed at the "Dinner Bell Motel" in Dunnellon. The price was right and it was clean enough and nice people. Was about 45 min from Bubba and traffic wasn't terrible, but steady. If you need a classy place go somewhere else, but if your demands and expectations aren't very high you could do worse than the "DBM". Our budget was thin so that's how we found it. We ended up having to leave 1 day early and they made no issue of it and refunded my money, which I didnt expect.Originally posted by lazyifoto View Post

I have not done any research but I want to believe you will have better luck getting affordable hotel rooms on the gulf side in Brandon for East Bay vs around Volusia.Comment

There is nothing like getting out of the cold weather and going to florida for Speedweeks. We stay in the orlando area. Yeah its about an hour drive but we dont pay over 80 bucks a night and they are good hotels. We get up early amd drive to daytona for the day and then volusia at night.Comment

What town CIRF?
I have spent many days fishing Lake George. We used to have a weekend house in the town of Astor. Theres plenty of fish camps in the area that have decent accommodations. Parramores has a nice campground as well.Comment
