I want to go to the U.S. Open and watch Tiger smack the living daylights out of the ball. Where can I stay in Bethpage, NY, other than camping in the park there?

Can't help with hotels, but the
U.S. Open is sold out.

I am buying tickets on e-bay, I just need a place to stay other than my car or my tent in the woods.

Don't know what kind of lodging you're looking for. In Bethpage, there's a Bethpage Motel (516 731-7000), also
Best Western Bar Harbour in Massapequa Park (516 541-2000) or Econo Lodge in Hicksville (516 433-3900) I cannot vouch for available or quality of these, but they are in or near Bethpage. Check out www.usopen.com/spectator.accomodations.html for list of more LI hotels/motels. There's also the Huntington Hilton nearby, more expensive and possibly already booked.

Try the Garden City Hotel...
Its in Garden City, NY which is about 40 mins. west from Bethpage.

Marriott in Uniondale?

Try the Wyndham Wind Watch in Hauppage but I doubt anything is available.

Isn't the USopen at the Tennis Center @ Flushing Meadows in Queens? If so, why would you need to stay in Bethpagge, LI? You can bsically stay anywhere;Queens, LI,even Manhattan. It gives you ALOT more choices

Anthony... you should be ashamed of yourself! ;-)

Anthony - What town are you from, Idiotville?? Living in Bethpage myself I can tell you that the Open has been sold out for quite some time. Hotel/Motel space is at a minimum here are completely booked. The golfers are not staying in Hotels, they have rented entire homes for the duration because of the hotel shortage. Good Luck
