More people opting for renting homes away from home

By

CALIFORNIA (NEWS1130) – If your next family vacation involves a few generations, you may want to skip the hotel and rent a house instead.

It can be a fun and affordable option as we’re finding out from Lynn Berry who rents her family home just a short drive from California’s Disneyland.

“My favourite thing is to rent to grandparents and parents and uncles and aunts and have a little family reunion.”

Lynn says it works really well for multi-generational trips. “Families will buy two or three day passes for Disney and the kids want to go everyday but some of the adults may want a break and decide it’d be better to relax at the house in front of a movie or napping by the pool.”

Another bonus according to Lynn is privacy. “You can have private conversations, meals and know that it’s just your group swimming in the pool.”

The house has everything from sheets and towels to all your kitchen supplies.

As for cost, Lynn says consider putting two or three families in a home and that would take two or three hotel rooms at least.  When you crunch the numbers a home rental is very affordable because you can also cook your meals instead of eating out all the time. And don’t expect to pack as much, as many rentals have a washer and dryer.
