A possible substitute for the Beat Hotel?

[LSPoorEeyorick]

Tom suggested earlier the idea of renting a large house, as opposed to a few rooms in a large hotel. He mentioned-- and I agree-- that part of the appeal of the Beat Hotel was that (for the most part) it was just us, and there was a literal (physical) barrier between us and the outside world. Perhaps the rental of a cabin might be a cool idea. I have a bit of work stuff I need to get done, but when I have a second I'm going to look at vacationrentals.com (I think that's what it was, anyway) to see what I can find.
