[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's your def of a "reasonable drive"? [b]It might not be as practical as you think to go there, say, every weekend as you may think. Aren't you busy on weekends - with your own household chores, errands, cleaning, prepping for the week, social obligations, etc.?[/b] And if you have (multiple) kids - sports, Saturday games, bday parties, school projects...on top of regular weekend stuff? Financially, it comes down to can you afford 2 households. Yes, there's maintanence, but you also have to have the "small" things that add up quickly - the food, the linens, the creature comforts of home, and that can really add up quickly. And what is this "maintenance" - will it need a new roof soon, new windowns, pipes are getting leaky, HVac working ok?[/quote] This is what we found out. We just don't have time on the wkds. So the cabin sits... There is nothing worse than an empty house. All kinds of issues. Think carefully[/quote]
