My favorite part of your articles is how you said that investing in a cabin is that it can offer manageable costs. My folks have thought of buying timeshare to spend their retirement traveling. I believe that a cabin would be best because they don’t like traveling that much.

I did not know that there are not a lot of small cabins out there to rent. My son told me that he would like to spend a weekend just me and him. It would be nice to take him on a trip and rent a cabin to have a more personal trip.
