Summary: Disappointing
Comment: This book left me a little out in the cold. Maybe it was the unexpectedly small size of the book. Maybe it was the superficiality of simply being shown a scattering of getaways and reading about what other people did. What can I do? I searched for "second homes" books on amazon.com and found one called Second Home, which is bigger and more inspiring than the Getaways book but which also talks to me about my own dreams and needs. As a designer, I have used the quizzes in the book to guide my clients in deciding what they really want, too.

Summary: A Ton Of Great Decorating And Design Ideas!
Comment: I saw this book in an expensive little shop in Gatlinburg, Tennessee last August, and later bought it cheaper over the internet. After reading several negative reviews here, and knowing the quality of this volume, I can't understand why people would not love this book. Contrary to what two reviewers state here, it is not a small volume and the photographs are extremely well done. They range from a picturesque dock out over a body of water to sunrooms, bedrooms, libraries, old desks, etc, with associated text, and most here can be done by people with any decent and modest budget.
I just wish I had this book last year when we had a house built, but it is useful now anyway. It is a treasure worthy of more than five stars.

Summary: A TRUE GETAWAY
Comment: Ms. Madden captured the essence of getting away, and right in your own home!! I thoroughly enjoyed this book; it gave me several ideas that I could apply to my own living situation. It's fun to just step into the homes of people that we'll never meet. The photos and text were just great. Keep on writing Chris we love it!!!
