If you are coming early, here is a list of some local campgrounds

* For your info - Don't book at these hotels for the Nats *

These hotels are not Vanner friendly!

If you are planning on booking any rooms in Albert Lea for the Nats DO NOT book at the

AmericInn or the Best Western Plus!

If you plan to book a hotel, please check into one of the hotels listed below.

There are 5 or 6 motels on the south side of Albert Lea that I would use and probably others.

These are on E. Main St. and here is a list:

Country Inn and Suites

Motel 6
The Ramada

Countryside Motel

I'm sure there are others and I'm not saying anyone of these is better then the other, just options.

And again, do not book at the AmericaInn or Best Western Plus for the Nats.
