The Ultimate Christmas House Is for Rent on Vrbo

Connecticut News Epic Stays
by Eben Diskin Nov 23, 2020

Everyone loves Christmas decorations, but not everyone loves setting them up, and getting your house to look like the Griswold’s from Christmas Vacation is easier said than done. That’s why Vrbo and Lifetime are partnering to offer a holiday home for rent that’s absolutely exploding with already set-up Christmas spirit.

Inspired by Lifetime’s 2020 holiday movie lineup, the “It’s a Wonderful Lifetime” Holiday House in Greenwich, Connecticut, was created with the help of master holiday decorator and star of the holiday movie “The Christmas Edition” Carly Hughes.

The Vrbo team wanted the house to “resemble a house made of gingerbread and be a small-town escape, preferably within walking distance of a bakery or coffee shop. Every room of the house has to be covered in Santa’s workshop amounts of holiday decorations — no fewer than five Christmas trees, 10 wreaths, and two larger-than-life nutcrackers to stand guard.”

Of course, to make your stay as magical as possible, there’s also a cozy fireplace, tons of Christmas sweaters, ingredients for making holiday food, Christmas trees, holiday wreaths, a do-it-yourself gingerbread house and 30 Lifetime holiday movies.

The home will be available to book on Vrbo starting at 1 PM EST on November 23, for three-night minimum stays through December 27. Since it starts at just $100 per night (all the money from rental goes to charity), you’ll still have plenty of money left over for Christmas presents.
