Answers, as I see them:

1. At this late date, I don't think you will have much choice. I would think you will be lucky to find anything close, at least for these three prime days only. I hope I am wrong! Camping may be a back-up choice?

2. Walk-ins can get in both north and west, cars west side. You can catch the seaplane shuttle from the south end of the tram runs. While it is a great venue, you are only going to be there three days, and unless seaplanes are your "thing," I wouldn't put it high on my list. Your call, of course.

3. Traffic into town is strange. Usually you will have to go several miles south in order to go north into town. A bother, but not a big deal.

4. The tram and bus service is great, except you may have to wait in line occasionally. Take the bus to the museum, several other venues. I would put the museum above the seaplane base on my personal must-see list, but it is open all year, and you may feel differently.

Have a great Oshkosh! If possible, it would save you time to get a "veteran" to show you around for a couple hours. It can be overwhelming!
