Summary: My husband and I have been gifting our adult children a VRBO stay to a location of their choice. Everyone has to get there on their own. We all take responsibility of sharing the meal preparation while we are there. And then we all gather and let the memories start happening. A lot of games being played, puzzles being put together and precious time being spent with each other with no outside responsibilities interfering. Relaxed downtime!! Favorite week of the year!!! The VRBO had enough space for the 14 of us. We brought our boat and with the dock right out front was so nice. My son and several grandsons fished right off the dock and did catch some fish. The kayaks provided by the Property owner was a big bonus. The ping pong table was also a lot of fun. We were also so pleased that there was a grill there to use. Fun and special memories were enjoyed by everyone.
