It's funny this thread came up today as I was trying to talk friends into going to Newport yesterday and today I mentioned it to my SIL. Hopefully in the fall we can find an open weekend to go.

FF is sometimes available but I had wanted to do a bed and breakfast. If I am able to get a 2 bedroom then I might do a timeshare. Timing is tight as I will be in Nola in OCT.
