You’ll hear suggestions, cautions and opinions about these two top vacation rental sites
Homeway, based in Austin, Texas, says it's the "leading marketplace of vacation rentals, representing 700,000 paid vacation rental home listings" in 168 countries.
VRBO doesn't seem to have an "About Us" page, which is disappointing, but has a lot of testimonials and an interesting Community Section where users can share concerns and information, like the couple that thought it was fishy for a renter to ask for a social security number.
Of course there are many other vacation rental sites, like Cyberrentals.com and Vacation Rentals, but VRBO and Homeaway.com come up first in a typical Google search for "vacation rentals."
