Growing up we had vacation homes. My father and his friend built one in New Hampshire and we would go up their in the Winter and the Summer. The winters then were so much fun because there was always a ton of snow. We’d sled down one of the streets because it was completely covered and there were hardly any people around. We’d go from our street all the way down the large hill to the pond. We’d also go to the local ski resorts and more. Winters were some of the best times to spend at that house.
With my own kids we have not done much in the way of Winter vacations but if we were to start looking for one to rent or one to buy then we could start with the website Vacasa. The website has everything that you need if you are looking into vacation homes. They have vacation rentals, property management and real estate. There is everything you want in order for you and your family to enjoy Winter vacations all over. If you are not sure exactly where you want to go then Vacasa has got you covered with their Winter Vacation Report.
According to the report one of the top vacation home location is Okemo/Ludlow VT. I know that Okemo Mountain is a great ski destination and I’ve enjoyed skiing there in the past. I was happy to see two of the top ten locations are in New England. The location that surprised me was Leavenworth, WA. The only thing I know about Leavenworth is that there is a federal prison there. What I learned from the Vacasa website is that Leavenworth is nestled in Washington State’s scenic North Central Cascades. This puts vacationers two hours away from Seattle. The median home price there is $380,000. also the median annual rental revenue is $34,940. Owning a Winter Vacation home may just be in the cards after all.
I was looking through the website and searching for vacation homes. What I liked about the site was that all of the features and amenities are easily laid out so you can scan each vacation rental for exactly what you’d like. Once you find a home that you like you can quickly check the dates and prices for your vacation. You can even keep a list of your favorites before narrowing down the the exact vacation home that you wish to rent. Each location has gorgeous photos to help you make your choice.
