Question Does anyone own a vacation home?

I think this would be so neat to have, but I don't see us ever having one (financial reasons).

How about you? Do you have one? Would you if you could afford one?

I'd love to have one, but like you our finances dictate otherwise.

I don't have one and would not even if it were financially feasible. If you have a vacation home, it would be one more home to insure, maintain, clean, and make payments on. A person could take a lot of vacations/weekend getaways for the cost of a vacation home. Plus you are restricted to where you vacation.

Kind of......Mom and Dad have a second home with a guest house, so we have a place to go pretty much whenever we want.

We have spoken (dreamed really) about it, but my guess is no we probably won't.
