- Product Review - Harvest Hosts
- $99 a year (coupon JUNE saves 15%) gives you access to overnight parking at wineries, farms and museums across the US.
- Pros - for folks who like a B&B-style experience, this can be a great thing
- Cons - Must call to reserve, show up during business hours, and you're expected to buy something. Also: strange vehicle restrictions.
