Post subject: | Sportsman's Lodge - not Lounge |
While planning a trip I was poking around on google maps and ran into something strange. There seems to be a hotel called Sportsman's Lodge. We all know of the Sportsman's Lounge in Barrio Otoya, but this appears to be near the intersection of Avenida 1 and Calle 1. Are they in any way related? Is somebody just trying to snag some business based on missed communication? |

It is owned by Bill and is supported by this board. I hope this is just a typo and you really are not confused on this....... Sportsmen's Lodge = in Barrio Otoya...... the DR <-----OG'n the confused...... ![]() |

it is but if you look at the sl business card and website it is called barrio otoya as well. maybe there is a negative connotation with the barrio amon name? i always use amon when directing taxis. idk |
