I don't know of any hotels but i know people rent out their houses.  A nice place that can keep 5-6 people can get up to $15,000 for the week.  Obviously a huge week for the community and there are a couple housing associations that inspect and fix up the houses before the tournament.

Hotels are probably all booked by now, might have to search further outside of Augusta.

I can't remember the exact hotel I stayed at in 2008, but I know it was about 20 minutes down the highway from Augusta. If you haven't been before, augusta is a relatively small town...so the options are minimal. The closer you stay, the more expensive it will obviously be. I would suggest just jumping on expedia or one of those sites and doing a search. Cuz I have no idea what you're budget is. But I just realized that I recently responded to your post about not having the money for lessons, so you may end up staying in Ohio. ha ha! Just playing with you. good luck...times a running out so most hotels will be booked up and pricey!

Yeah, if you're talking about this year's Masters, then good luck.  Try Macon or Columbia.

I think he lives in Columbia, which would be convenient for him. :-D

Depending on what you're willing to accept you can find a room in town even as late as tournament week.  It'll be in the bad part of town and the room will be crummy (and you'll pay more for it than you should), but you can find a place to stay.  But if you're driving over from Columbia I'd just commute everyday, unless you've got the budget to be overcharged for a room in the better part of town.

My gf and I are staying in Atlanta (extremely cheap for nice hotels like the hilton, sheraton, etc.) and will be making the 2.5+ hour drive early Monday morning to go to the practice round. Didn't even bother trying to find lodging in or near Augusta. Besides, my gf has never been to Atlanta, so figured for the other days we are down there, we can do some sightseeing. With that said, if I had tickets for more than one day, I definitely wouldn't be making that 5+ hour roundtrip on multiple days and would have tried to find lodging in or around Augusta.

 

In my Mizuno Aerolite IV Stand Bag:

Driver: Titleist 910D2 (9.5°, RIP Alpha 70S)
Wood: Titleist 910F (15°, RIP Alpha 70S)

Irons: Mizuno MP-68 Irons (3 - PW, C-Taper S+), Mizuno MP-33 2 Iron (C-Taper S+)

Wedges: Vokey Spin Milled (56.11 - Bent to 54°, 60.07 Tour Chrome, C-Taper S+ DSS)

Putter: Scotty Cameron Newport 2 (34")

Ball: Titleist Pro-V1x

GPS: Garmin Approach g5

Most useful training aids (for me) that I use: Tour Striker Pro 7 Iron, Swingyde, Tour Sticks alignment sticks, Dave Pelz Putting Tutor

      Day 27 (4 Apr 26) - Worked with grandson on basic pitches/punches in the back yard with varied irons/wedges.  Wrapped up the day rolling some putts on the 30’ carpet I can set up in the yard to give varied terrain - and this carpet rolls almost too easy. A great way to figure a read and know that pace has to be near perfect to get in the hole.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      A bit of a struggle today.  Just some thoughts/musings.  For the backswing, it is like I am never going to be moving on from this. I don't know if I can ever get to the point where the backswing isn't like over 1.5 seconds in duration. Which is probably not ideal. I would like to get to the point where I can just fling the arms back and up.  I have to feel like my hands are going to hit my right thigh from P1 to P2. If not then they like to move 2-5 inches towards the ball from P1 to P2. Then it's just bad from there. This feeling is my hands not gaining much depth, just maintaining depth from set up. From the DTL view, the hands head towards the camera.  While I am doing that, hinge the crap out of the club with my wrist only. Hinge in a way that the club is pointing at the camera at P2.  From P2, lift the hands straight up. I can get here, and still roll the club inside and get it way too shallow.  With the downswing. There isn't much here. I still can't get the flow of this or the sequencing of this to line up. It doesn't help that hinging from P1 to P2 just throws off my entire timing as well.
