Great American Eclipse Watching Accommodations

[Sandy VDH]

Does anyone know of a good site to list accommodations specifically for rentals geared to accommodations for watching the Aug eclipse.

I have look in a few places, but find nothing catering to the eclipse.

Any ideas?

I'm guessing it is pretty late in the planning window. Not sure if any of the following both suit you and have room left:

Good luck

There are some places in/near resort areas, but they are DEAR. I've heard of $80 mid-range hotels charging $450/night and requiring 3 night minimums. We will have 95% totality here and will either day-trip, or go on a bus with the astronomy chief at the local college to see it.

Sorry let me Clarify. I'm not looking for, but I have timeshares booked for the weekend through the eclipse, that is in the 100 % total coverage area, that I am trying to RENT.

I just need to find the venue to advertise that they are Eclipse specific date accommodations, that I am having difficulty finding some listing that specialize in that type. Trying to find a specific audience.

Maybe click that sky and telescope link and advertise in their marketplace?

An Eclipse Will Cross the US for the First Time in 99 Years
From CNN.com/ News/ news.opera-api.com

"On August 21, the sun will disappear for a short time.

For a swath of the country from Portland, Oregon, to Charleston, South Carolina, it will feel like someone just turned off the sun in the middle of the day.

Even if you live elsewhere in the US, a portion of the sun will partially disappear.

It is being called the " Great American Eclipse ." And you can mark it on your calendar down to the millisecond...."

I'm going to be sitting on my brother in laws' back deck in Casper, Wyoming with a huge tumbler of Glenlivet.... I may even see the eclipse.....

I have been seeking customers for some eclipse products I sell. In doing that I search hotel prices in the path of the eclipse.
It seemed to me that the interest is much higher in the Western US. Hotel prices now on the Oregon coast $900-2400.
In Charleston SC $300-500.
I didn't search TS.

I think Wyoming is suppose to have the lowest amound of project cloud cover. There are higher chances for cloud cover on the east coast at that time of the year. There are a couple of charts that show likelihood of clear skys.

Oregon coast will be earlier in the day, I would wonder about morning Marine cloud layer. Inland would be better.
