[quote=Anonymous]OP, I have the same situation. We will inherit a share of 2 recreational properties and full ownership of a third recreational property that have been in DH's and my families for several generations. Using them right now is a lot of negotiation with family, together time, and we can't get quiet or privacy. We also got a lot of attitude when we considered buying our own.

We ultimately decided to do a 1 month rental of the same cottage every year, and then spend the other weeks of summer doing a mix of city activities and shared family property/visiting. We don't gain any equity but we also have none of the headaches of maintenance or commitment, and most of your list other than decorating has worked out for us. It has now been several years of us doing this and we have a good rapport with the owners, so they have now set us up with a locking closet for us to keep items in the off season.

Down the road we're hoping to buy out the others on my family's property but until then it has worked really well to just have a consistent rental.
