[quote=Anonymous]When we have rented houses for family events - we don't just get one - we ID a location that has many options (hotels, houses, condo's etc). Poll who wants to stay where then let the individual family groups determine their place/cost/needs. We have a huge variety in ages, interests, and backgrounds. Typically this meant family units (mom/dad/kids - maybe an aunt or cousin tucked in a spare sofa) stayed together. We kept the events to a long weekend, in a city that was easy to get to via flights or driving. We arranged for a Thursday night "happy hour" for those arriving early. Then Friday breakfast fend for selves, and had a nice dinner with a private space planned for Friday night. Saturday we found a local park where those wanting the hike could hike, there were playgrounds for younger kids and rentable pavilions for the elders to sit in the shade. We did a later afternoon BBQ at the park. Sunday - all call for breakfast/brunch for those still around but most folks were gone. I can say in all honestly this was MORE THAN enough time. Not everyone gets what they want - but if the real goal is to have time together as a family it can be accomplished. [/quote]
