October, November at Hilton Head

[SL6827]

Early October and early November at Hilton Head, how hard to get a studio during those times if you book say 7-8 months out? Any ideas?

Have you seen drusba's 7 month summary? Here's an excerpt from that summary for HH:

For the Fall after Labor Day through Jan 1, 3BRs often have a day or two missing in many weeks. After Labor Day through end of Sep, everything else has been open although the studio may disappear for a day early in the morning at 7 months out. Early Oct through Columbus Day weekend is usually open except the studio has disappeared for a day or two before 7 months out. After Columbus day weekend through Jan 1, the studios, 1BRs and 2BRs have been open except for three or four days surrounding Thanksgiving when they fill before 7 months out. From Jan 2 to just before mid-March, everything has been open except for the 3BR now and then. Beginning mid-March and through mid-April (and beyond in April if Easter is later), the studios and 1BRs are often missing multiple days a week and the 2BRs one to two days (and more during the Easter weeks), although you can still find a week in a 2BR at times. Then from mid-April to just before Memorial Day weekend, studios, 1BRs and 2BRs are usually open, while 3BRs are usually missing some days per week.

HTH. Maybe others will have more info for you. drusba's posts are about the only availability info I've come across for HH.

In November you should be fine, as long as you're avoiding Thanksgiving week, and it sounds like you are since you said "early November". Also, the week after Thanksgiving is pretty good-I remember last year, the day before we were due to leave, I was bemoaning the fact that we had to leave to the CM at the front desk, and she reminded me that they weren't full if we wanted to stay. Oh, the temptation!
