One of the easiest and most effective ways to reduce costs when it comes to travel is to share the financial load with friends and family by splitting your accommodations. In the world of vacation rentals, a way to accomplish this is to book a larger property than you'd typically look for to suit your family, then invite a few other families to join you and divide the financial burden.
Take, for example, our new four-bedroom Gatlinburg cabin rental, Porch. Four bedrooms might not sound like a lot of space, but when you consider that each room has a king bed with an ensuite bath, and that the basement living area is home to two twin-over-twin bunk beds, suddenly the home becomes a great venue for a few families to enjoy together.
Let's say you want to come for four nights, Monday through Friday, the week of your kids' Spring Break. Costs for those prime dates in a brand-new luxury property like Porch might run you close to $2500, including fees. Maybe that feels tough to tackle alone. Never fear! Look what happens when you bring another family or two (or three!) along:
To save you a headache and the need for mental math, our website even offers a "split cost calculator" to make dividing and conquering even easier. Whenever you go to book a stay for selected dates, simply open the calculator and watch your savings pile up. Check it out:
Suddenly what felt like an insurmountable financial obstacle is now well within reach! Not only will you save money, stay in a fabulous cabin, and enjoy a much-needed vacation, you'll do so while spending time with those you love, creating memories that will last a lifetime. Consider renting one of our larger Gatlinburg rentals and sharing the financial load with others. It's truly a win/win situation!
