How are your Spring Break Rentals

[Paula]

I have a week or two in each cottage. I'm thinking it's a bit early and people realize they have choices, so they're not in a hurry. So, I'll start worrying more if I don't get more by mid/late Feb.

I am going to check with WC today and see what our rentals look like. I'll report back.

I am thinking of changing our arrival until after April 13 in order to avoid that ATL SB.

I think that would be wise. We were stunned by the number of people in town- it was like 4th of July!

I have nothing booked for spring break that I've wanted to accept, and that's fine with me. Frankly, I'd rather NOT rent during that time frame unless it's someone who's stayed with us before. I hate reading the horror stories in this forum because I always get that sinking "there but for the grace of God go I" kind of feeling. We've been very lucky thus far but???

I thought BOA was buying Countrywide out.

Oh Dear God NOOOOO !!!

I like Countrywide. But Bank of America already bought out two of my credit cards and they are a pain in the @ss. Between them and Citibank having bought the third one...

Hope I didn't offend anyone here that works for either of these two...

I have to think it's the economy.

My sister in law just called to cancel -- they were going to come and stay in our guest rooms for free, but feel they can't afford even the travel and extraneous vacation spending this year.

is that a unipug?

Yes...JDarg LOVES him!

You really shouldn't dress up Patrick that way. I am sure he is horrified.

So far my bookings for March 22-29 are filling up quickly. For my owners with VRBO we have had it all, from a mother who is looking for accomodations for her 17 year olds 19 year old bf, to people asking for pre-booking discounts. Since this is very quickly heading to me mainlining espresso and working 170 hour weeks, feel free to PM if you need someone to check on/evict folks. We have already started explaining to everyone coming down that we will be stopping in 1-2 times minimum during the week and if ANYTHING looks fishy they face immediate eviction.

I think it has everything to do with the economy. I think people are possibly having to decide between a summer vacation or spring break this year.

May be more like deciding whether to pay taxes or go on Spring Break.
