Turning your home into a successful vacation rental.

  1.  Determine What Your Goals Are

We sit down with each property owner to determine their goals and expectations. Just want to off-set the carrying cost and enjoy the cabin yourself on a regular basis? Or maybe you purchased the cabin as an investment and want the highest possible annual yield? We will discuss your expectations and back up our information with revenue projections for similar cabins on our program.

  1. Choose the Right Property

If you already own a property and would like to turn it into a vacation rental home we’ll help you turn it into a successful property for you and guests to enjoy. If you are considering purchasing a home, we work closely with area realtors and would be happy to connect you to one of the many top performers, or welcome the opportunity to advise you and your real estate agent when assessing properties. Our years of expertise will help guide you on location, design, size and amenities. Put our experience and expertise to work for you.

  1. Creating the Right Look – Sleeping Arrangements – And Popular Amenities

Once you’ve found the right property or made the decision to turn your existing property into a vacation rental, we can help you choose the right look and amenities that are most popular with our guests. We can help you determine sleeping arrangements to maximize occupancy and ensure the comfort of your family and renters. Whether you are supplementing what you already have or are starting from scratch, we will make the recommendations that are sure to appeal to renters as well as be the most cost-effective. For more information and an overview of what to consider see our Homeowner Checklist.

  1. A Booking Strategy That Suits Your Goals

Our aggressive rate management strategy establishes the right rate for the right time. We understand Big Bear’s tourism trends and market accordingly during both peak and shoulder seasons. We have partnered with the most successful vacation rental search engines, enabling us to connect your property with millions of worldwide travelers. In addition to the exposure your home will receive through our travel site affiliates, your property will be marketed on our website and our social media outlets.

Our approach to rate management, when combined with our marketing programs, maximum occupancy ratios and quality property care, are the reasons for our success. We have the lowest management percentage on the mountain and no fee for homeowner bookings.
