They did give me the option to pay through VRBO, but that would cost $600 more with the new fees


The rental fees are maxed out at $499 and that gets you the protection that you are trying to circumvent AND you can use a CC with no additional fee for even more protection. I have used VRBO many, many times and have had no issues.

I am not thrilled with the new fee but when I figured out the CC charge for our 7 week rental it was nearly a wash AND I get miles/cashback <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Thumbsup.gif" alt="" />.

Hard to figure out why you "have a bad feeling" and then do not use the protection offered.
