I get there about 8:30 am. There is plenty of parking also. A heated indoor concession stand with pretty good food. If it's a nice morning you can walk up and down by the fishing/cruise boats. I think we are pretty lucky to have such a nice place to meet and enjoy a Sunday morning. Just try not to go on a cold windy day, unless you like that sort of weather.

Captree is amazing. Once upon a time I counter over 170 Corvettes there on one morning. Both parking lots were completely full and there was a waiting line to get in.

Now that the golf season is coming to an end, I hope to start making it to Captree again. Nice snack bar, clean bathrooms, and lots of neat cars.

I wish we had as good of a meetup place in the PA/NJ/Del area although our Saturday morning C&C at Starbucks in Dilworth Plaza (not far from rt 1 and rt 202) is probably a close second as far as what types of cars you can see. We get everything from Ferrari 458, 430 360 328, 355, 308, 599 and occasionally a F40 to 1000 hp Lambo Gallardo's to Porsche's to old British cars to vettes and an occasional muscle car.

Unfortunately we do not have any boats or water but we make up for it with cars.

Feel free to PM me for more info, we are there every Saturday morning from like 8:00 to 11:00 am weather permitting.
