Summer rentals - 1/25/2008 11:19 AM I am renting my house out on Holden Shores Rd during the summer season. As I get inquiries on the property that I can't accomodate, I have regularly been asked who else rents on the lake. Is there anyone else renting who would like to share referals? Would it make sense for us to post a listing of who rents (not be a rental site but just contact info amongst ourselves or links for those who have sites i.e. mine is http://home.comcast.net/~kshea_337/index.html


1/26/08: Edited by admin to fix the link.

Summer rentals - 1/25/2008 7:14 PM Odd, it just tested fine for me. Alternate email address is kathryn.shea@hp.com Would be interested in knowing anyone else who is renting, and if the board would consider a spot on the website to list these.

Summer rentals - 1/26/2008 8:59 PM i also tried your link and could not get through. i do think it would be a great idea to share so info. I think alot of us might be considering a rental period of our homes to help with our new tax burdens.

Summer rentals - 1/26/2008 10:00 PM Try, try again? You should be able to see the site from 2 places, www.VRBO.com #115909 (which then has a link to...) http://home.comcast.net/~kshea_337/index.html where there are just more photos. I'm getting plenty of inquiries, no one to refer them to on Lake Wentworth during the periods I'm already booked.

Summer rentals - 1/27/2008 1:20 PM It seems unlikely that the LWA board would be in favor of making rentals a formal part of the association Web site. In the past, the board has tried to steer clear of promoting outside commercial activity, whatever its merits (and connecting homeowners with renters is certainly a good and useful thing). If someone would nonetheless like the board to consider doing this, I'll make sure that it's on the agenda at the next meeting (which, unfortunately, is not until early June).

That said, it's perfectly fine with me if homeowners want to use these forums to connect to renters, as long as the postings are brief and straightforward.

(By the way, I would discourage anyone from directly posting their e-mail address or phone number in a forum. It's too easy to have it abused. Instead, invite readers to contact you through this Web site's Private Messaging feature. Private Messaging shows up in the list at the left side of the page, under Discussion Forums, when you log in to the site. After you click the link, you can select the username of the person who will get the message.)

Thank You...
The link that didn't work was on the web page.

Summer rentals - 3/3/2008 5:41 PM Hi! As a person whose family use to own on Holden Shores and now rents every year (has for 30 years), I would love a place to connect with people willing to share their homes during the summer months! Thanks!

Summer rentals - 1/17/2010 8:28 PM Please let me know if anyone is interested in renting their home July 24-July31. We are a family with pets but are willing to pay for the pets. We have rented for years(20) on Mink Island and recently on shore. We love the lake and take good care of the property. It is the best vacation spot that I know of.

Summer rentals - 1/31/2010 10:31 AM I would also like to see a way that we can share rental info. I list my house on Homeaway.com and frequently get inquiries for weeks that are already booked. We use our house from late June through mid- August, and usually just have late summer and fall free.

Also- noticed on the link of the home below that you listed an 8% meals tax- heads up- it is now 9%. And I made the mistake for years of renting and not collecting the tax because I did not know that I needed to, and I claimed the rental income on my personal taxes. I was audited and paid ridiculously heavy penalties- almost more than the small amount of tax I owed. So if you are renting, make sure you charge the tax and file the returns.
