Much of the music was written while Jeff Rosenstock was on a free trip to Belize, and unlike the band's previous albums, it is "about trying to build a home." In 2015 Rosenstock chose Vacation as his favorite BTMI album.
There are guest contributions from members of Fake Problems, Bayside, Andrew Jackson Jihad, and Good Luck.
