Guest Access:

We want your stay to be all about the memories - not the paperwork. So let's get the small stuff out of the way early and get back to what matters: your trip!



Every reservation is required to complete a quick Guest Portal before check-in. It's a secure external link we'll send you shortly after booking, and it's also where you'll find all your check-in details - including your all-important door code.



The pre-approval process takes just a few minutes and covers three simple steps:



1. Sign the Rental Agreement - a quick electronic signature, no printing required.

2. Guest verification - a fast, standard guest verification.

3. Pick your coverage: Damage Waiver (a small, non-refundable fee covering eligible accidental damage during your stay - our guests' favorite option, since it takes the stress out of minor mishaps) or Security Deposit (a fully refundable hold, released after checkout as long as everything's in order).



We'll email your secure portal link before arrival - just a few minutes of your time for a much smoother check-in. Thanks for helping us keep things safe and simple. We can't wait to host you!
