We have spent 8+ months a year in TV since 2007. This is the first summer where we did not have a northern home. It is a strange feeling for sure (for us anyway). We got fortunate in that we were asked to dog/house sit for a family member as they traveled for five weeks. We got stuck doing this on a little island called Martha's Vineyard. We are in this area:
Martha's Vineyard Camp Meeting Association | A National Historic Landmark
We told them we would not charge them to do the sitting
We then got
very lucky and found a
tiny cottage through September for a reasonable rate. It looks like a studio apartment, NO bedrooms. It will be a great test of a 33 year marriage.
No idea what we do next year as we really got lucky this year. Staying long term on MV without spending a fortune is not a easy task and not in our financial plan.
I like this thread. I may be reaching out to Villager Dude as where he is sounds fun. We also have friends in Prince Edward Island which sounds like a blast.
I am a newbie when it comes to trying to rent long term anywhere, so reading stuff like this is great for me...
