Curious why having a house means you have to cook? I can eat out with a house just like I would with a hotel room. I use the fridge to store easy to grab perishables, but I'm definitely not cooking up big messy meals on vacation.
I just thought I'd point out the positives of off site rentals , especially now that the onsite perks are minimal. I can save around $500 for the week by staying off site, in much better accomodations, and not have to deal with the headaches of on site. We definitely value our space, private pool, 2 or 3 bathrooms so we can all shower and get ready at one time, private parking at our front door, game room, easy access to non-disney restaraunts and activites, storage for our clothes and bags, a washer for the unavoidable mickey bar stain on my daughter's clothes, etc. For us, its a win!
