[quote=Anonymous]How "unfinished" is the basement? Ours is unfinished but I like it that way - less to worry about. I gave the concrete floor/cinder block walls a coat of bright paint - put FLOR rug tiles down in big parts of it and it is perfect for the kids - roughhousing, craft projects (especially messy ones) or just playing. Plus, you don't have to worry about unexpected leaks, plumbing issues or flooding. And if anything is going to wrong in a house - it tends to be in the basement. I use it for growing seedlings too. So - can you just spruce it up to make it usable. As to mosquitoes - we use our yard Sep - June and not in July/August - too hot/muggy and mosquitoy. But, we get a surprising amount of use out of it in the winter and it is awesome in the spring and fall. When the mosquitoes are bad you tend not to want to be outside anyway...unless you are at the pool![/quote]
