Cooking In

Vacation Home Kitchens can lead to repeat Visitors. A well-stocked kitchen with basic cooking tools makes meal time easy. A good set of pots and pans, are a must. Renters will also find a large pot, a broiler pan, a roasting pan, baking sheets, a baking dish, a colander, and microwave safe containers very handy.

And don't overlook small kitchen essentials such as wooden spoons, ladle, spatulas, measuring spoons/cups, vegetable peeler, can opener, bottle opener, corkscrew, and scissors. Be sure to include specific cooking tools for preparing local specialties.

If you have a Grill make sure you have grilling tools as well. A spice rack is always a nice. You can find a used microwave for under $20 these days. My family likes to leave the kitchen stocked with are family's special pancake mix. We make it every year and put a nice label on it. It is small extras like this that make a home stick out.
