My HomeExchange Story: "Want to never pay for lodging again?"

During the summer of 2022, Matthew and his family of six (plus their beloved pup) traveled to Fort Collins, CO to enjoy a family vacation. With a few exchanges under his belt, he shared his and his family’s experience using HomeExchange.

What did you appreciate most about the home you stayed in?

Our family of 6 (plus a pup!) enjoyed the home’s 3 spacious levels that allowed us to spread out.

What did you appreciate most about your exchange partner?

Our Exchange Host was so kind and thoughtful. She left a goodie basket of tasty treats for us and fun toys for our kids.

What did you see or do during your exchange?

We loved bike riding on Fort Collins’ awesome bike paths, playing in the Poudre River, and swimming at City Park pool.

What is one of your best memories or experiences from a home exchange?

We did a wonderful Home Exchange with some friends on the beach of Rocky Point, Mexico. It was a blast!

What would you say to your friends and family who are considering HomeExchange?

Want to never pay for lodging again? Tired of dull, boring hotel rooms? Try Home Exchange!

What tips and tricks would you give to new HomeExchangers?

Don’t be afraid to request a call or FaceTime with your host prior to confirming an Exchange! This can really help ease any concerns you may have and will provide you with an opportunity to ask any questions.
