WAUKESHA - Entrepreneurially minded homeowners in Waukesha County
are hoping to turn a H.O.G. celebration into a cash cow.
Several people have ads on the Internet site Craigslist, offering
to rent out their homes to those attending Harley-Davidson’s 105th
anniversary celebrations in Milwaukee and Waukesha over Labor Day
weekend.
Travis Menard said he is renting out his Nashotah home and even
spots in his yard for camping.
"I have a Harley and I’ve been to places like Daytona on
my bike so I know what it’s like to try to find a place to
stay," he said of his idea of posting his home as a weekend
rental.
So far, he has inquiries from people in Oregon and Pennsylvania,
he said.
