I'm camping at Lawson Hill for the first time this year.  Does anyone know what day/how early I need to get there to get a spot for about 10 people and maybe 3 or 4 tents?

Can't wait, less than a week!

More Lawson Hill questions:

I am arriving Wednesday afternoon, before Yonder.  :)  was just wondering how the process of setting up goes.  Can I park my car nearby, unload, etc then where will I park my car.  ie; how far away will my car be from my weekend campsite in Lawson?

Can I bring beer into Lawson?  restrictions on glass?

Are these campground generally safe to leave minor valuables in?  For example, I have a tiny portable power generator (ONLY used to inflate camping mattress) It's worth $100, but I like to keep it in tent to add air each night before bed.  If I could inflate it by mouth to make it quieter I would.. just sucks on a soggy mat  huh

Can I get an estimate from Lawson Hill to festival entrance BY BIKE?  Thanks friends!!!  Thumbs Up

I haven't actually been before, but we are going this year and are camping at Lawson, so I've been doing a bit of research. 

My understanding on parking is that you did get to unload right at the field and then go park.  I have read that there is some parking about 5-10 minutes walk from Lawson, so maybe we'll be put there.

The festival is 4 miles down the bike path from Lawson, so maybe 15-20 minutes.

Yes on beer at Lawson, and no glass restrictions as far as I know.  I know we are planning on bringing some beer and mead to share.

I'm not sure on valuables, but I would imagine there are enough people around watching out for their neighbors that theft isn't a big issue.
