Oh that is ashame - there are some on cape cod if that is any use?
I think I would still consider a hotel - I would still rather arrive at camp with the energy to greet every one and be sociable.
An alternative would be to see if the camp would allow you to arrive the day before. That way you could drive up the day before without having to get up at stupid o'clock to make the 9 hour drive to get there for what ever time you need to be there for. I know that at Chenoa we had a few (4 at one point) staff who drove from Kansas to NH and they were allowed to arrive early!
