Public standard · claims are the managers' own

Seats Equal Sleeps

Large homes whose own listing states a dining seat count at least as large as the stated sleeps, so the whole reunion sits down to one meal at the same time.

The standard is arithmetic on the manager's own listing: stated dining seats must equal or exceed stated sleeps. Both numbers come from the listing, never from us.

Reunion and multigenerational trips fail at the table, not the bedrooms. A house that sleeps 20 and seats 12 means two shifts, paper plates on the couch, or the kids eating in the garage. Most large-home listings brag about sleeps and go quiet about seats. This club lists only homes where the manager wrote both numbers down and the seats win.

Nine homes from six managers, grouped by market: Outer Banks, Smoky Mountains, Poconos, and Broken Bow. Each links to the manager; you book with them.

The homes

What qualifies, exactlyThe manager's own listing must state a sleeps or guest-capacity figure and a dining seat count, and the seats must equal or exceed the sleeps. Seats at dining tables count, indoors or outdoors, when the listing gives a number for them; bar stools and counter seating do not. Where the listing gives per-table counts, they are summed, and the card shows the arithmetic. The authority is the listing text as displayed in September 2026; we quote it and do not estimate.
