We haven't been on a family vacation in a long time. We will be "on the road" probably a good 10-12 days with our 21 year old son and teen daughters this July and we need ideas for affordable accomodation. We have friends scattered about but my husband wants this to be a vacation, with a capital V.

We cannot use our current vehicles because they are older and not reliable so we will be spending a little on a rental. We will be travelling down the East Coast (from Canada) to Florida across to Mississippi for a family reunion and then back up north through Tennessee and Ohio.

Does anybody have any creative ideas? I've checked the prices of motorhomes for rent (that's out of the question!). We can't really afford a camper rental either PLUS a van rental. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Answer
Check the rout your taking then look into campgrounds that are more or less on the way. Just take a tent and some sleeping bags and you can overnight at a campground with facilities for just dollars a night. Take a camp stove and some basic groceries to make dinner there and you'll save further. It's not luxurious but it's definitely economical.
