[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's ours:

5 bedroom house:

Group 1: 2 adults, 2 kids
Group 2: 2 adults, 2 kids
Group 3: 2 adults
Group 4: 2 adults
Group 5: 1 adult
Group 6: 1 adult

Kids are all preschoolers/lower elementary[/quote]

If the kids are young and will sleep in with their parents, all the couples get a room and pay an equal share (1/5) and the two singles share a room (one with 2 beds if one exists), and they pay one share, so each person pays 1/2 what a couple pays.[/quote]

This is what seems fair to me.  One person in our group is passive-aggressively suggesting that we pay by person, but it seems unfair given that we will be sleeping 4 to a room (with our kids on air mattresses on the floor).[/quote]

See, I don't think that is passive aggressive at all.  That single person sounds like s/he is advocating for his/her rights.

I'm saying this as a mom of more than a handful of kids but I think the single people usually get screwed in these group house situations.  I think you should all pay a per person rate with adults in their own rooms, kids in a dorm room, and babies with their parents in a crib/pac-n-play.[/quote]

But there aren't enough rooms for that.  [/quote]

NP here. I am not paying 4x the single person so my family of 4 can share a room and she can have her own. I will pay 2x her IF I get two rooms. If she doesn’t like that she should just travel with other single people.[/quote]
