To start with, I'd suggest composing your ad more carefully than this thread title.
Do you want to advertise a free house or are you looking for a no-cost way to rent out a house that is not free?

Hotpads and Zillow. Craigslist is a nonstarter in my markets. It brings in unqualified people and wastes a lot of time.
I would also post a notice in the clubhouse if there is a bulletin board and on Nextdoor if your neighborhood participates. Word of mouth is very effective for the active adult market. Someone has a cousin or a friend back home that wants to move to Florida but wants to try it out by renting.
-
I would double/triple check that renting out your place is within the guidelines of the community. Some do not allow it.

Hey, thanks for the two tips on websites, will place proper ads there. dicey likely does not like newbys with slams but i understand. kindly.
-
some communities/HOAs have a website that would list your home for free or a nominal price.

WTF? What does this even mean? This comment just underscores my original point. Rule #1 of any ad is clarity. Ever hear of the Five W's? I made a comment that I hoped would encourage you to write a better ad and generate more interest in your listing. I like newbies as well as anyone here, but I would have made the same comment to the mighty post king, ARS, had he posted the same words you did.
