My mother sent me a link to VRBO. The site is a clearing house for people who are willing to rent their homes to people on vacation. They claim to have 130,000 homes listed.

Anyone tried this service?

We would love to travel more. We love to spend a month at a location. We've found that you get to know the area much better. It isn't as rushed. With 30 days you go see stuff when you want. When we've visited for a couple days we always feel more rushed. Only 72 more hours to cram everything in.
