- Where is The Overlook located?
- In beautiful, rural Poweshiek County, Iowa.
- Right, but where exactly is it?
- Ok, so go South out of Grinnell until you get to Old Highway 225 (I forget what it’s called now). Then, go like you’re going to go to New Sharon, which used to just be called “Sharon,” but they changed it. Anyway, on that gravel road, turn onto the other gravel road. When you get to Cecil’s place, go two more hills until you see Stanley, the sheet metal rooster.
- How much does all that food cost?
- It’s included with your stay.
- Why is it called The Overlook?
- The Overlook is named for its signature sweeping views. Also, it might be haunted like that hotel in “The Shining.”
- Wait, The Overlook is haunted?
- Probably not. We’re not required to disclose that for real estate transactions in Iowa, and my home inspector said, “It doesn’t seem haunted.”
- Why is your concierge a dog?
- I don’t know what you mean.
- Which ‘Police Academy’ film is the worst?
- Definitely “Mission To Moscow”.
- What are “Freedom Rocks” and why are there so many of them near The Overlook?
- They’re just rocks that some guy painted tacky stuff on. I think he must have just found them where they are. They’re too big to move, unless you have an end loader, and I certainly don’t.
- When is the next Overlook Invitational?
- Sometime next year.
- How do I enter The Overlook Invitational?
- Just get invited.
- How can I book a stay at The Overlook?
- Look, buddy, I’m not sure how you got this far without realizing it, but this site is satire. The Overlook is just my house, where I live with my wife and my dog. You can’t book a stay here. I mean, you can if you’re a friend or family. Just call Sarah, and she’ll hook you up.
