Has anyone ever had work done to their home/camp at the lake in return for a free week or two stay there? How did it work out for you, any issues? Wondering if there's any market for this type of bartering. I'm thinking maybe labor (I'd buy materials) in return for the stay. Maybe a week or two at a (non-lake front) Suissevale home for say a couple rooms of hardwood floor put down or re-do a bathroom, etc. I know someone doing it in Maine this summer and giving the person two weeks use in July. Any thoughts, suggestions, personal experiences? Thanks..
