    My girlfriend and I are going to the cog railway around the middle of Aug. Looking for reasonable price accommodations. We are 70 and non smokers. We don't require a huge room. Clean, decent, shower, double bed, maybe wireless. We eat out. Maybe only one and at most two nights. We have AARP and AAA cards also.

    I have looked at the cog site and see the steamer runs at 9am which is what we want. Would it be advisable to order the ride tickets online? We plan to be there during the week, not the weekend. Yes, we will bring jackets for the ride.

    I am hoping to find someone who has been there recently. I am searching Google for Conway also as we would like to take that in also.

    Thanks.

    NH visit

    Ive never been on the Cog before but from what ive heard the steam train is very popular and is always filled so you should order tickets beforehand. There is alot to do in downtown Conway. Unfortunately I havent been up there in a while so i can't remember the name of the hotel to give you a recommendation. I did do a little research and it looks like an average of a hotel for a night is $100-200. If you do go up for a visit make sure to also visit the Conway Scenic Railway.
