Now the next question: I've not been able to find suitable lodging near
those Tug Hill ski centers so am inclined to stay in the Rome, NY area and
commute. Any other ideas?


The area is full of armpit motels that cater to the
snowmobiler/ATV/fishing/hunting crowd, but they're
inexpensive and well-located. Try www.harrislodging,com,
www.brendasmotel.com, www.portlodge.com,
www.portlyanglerlodge.com, among others.

I'm a little leery of the armpit factor.

Harris Lodging tries to appeal to the non-motorhead crowd
more than the others do. I know dog mushers who stayed
there and didn't die or develop parasitic infections or
anything.

Harris Lodging is the inexpensive option. The 1880 House B&B is nicer
and still reasonable. A google search for each will provide details.

I stayed at the 1880 house last year, it is a big old Victorian place,
not too fancy, lots of rooms. It is in Pulaski, which also has some name
brand motels.
Also there is a diner on the main street of Pulaski that has great
french fries!
The Winona Forest is about 15 miles away (maybe closer), has some wide
trails and many narrow hiking/ski trails. It is very beautiful. I had
quite a bit of trouble finding the entrance/parking areas on the local
roads. Many races are held there, so it is often groomed.

I think that's all that's served for dinner there...

No, I really liked the diner! They had all the 1950's comfort food: mac
and cheese, turkey and gravy, etc.!
