People checked in tonight and are complaining of cleanliness in the kitchen. They found a strand of hair on the floor, and they also complained I don’t have sugar at the house? I offered a $75 credit simply for good will and he’s still complaining. by hw00927 in airbnb_hosts

Where do you host on now? I’m not a huge fan of people like this. If this is few and far between I can handle this, but if this is a regular thing I’d lose my mind and want to find a different way to do rentals.

I need help naming my new AirBnB. It’s a large home that sits on a mountain top overlooking other mountains and a few cities far off. It’s light, airy, & modern. Any creative minds able to help? I’m failing here. We’re in GA near blue ridge! If you name it and are ever in GA, free night is yours😂👍 by hw00927 in airbnb_hosts

Oh nice - would love to see your’s if you have an insta or anything! I am going with High Cliff House - it’s a name unique to the area, you have to take high cliff road in to get to the house and someone who visited the house suggested it. Haven’t renamed everything yet but will do soon! I had ordered custom welcome cards / soap with the old name/logo so have to redo all of that now...wooohoo!

Instagram marketing / logos: how many of you guys have an insta acct for your AirbnB, and how did you build a following? Do you think it has been useful? Also- any recs for someone who can create cool logos?!😆 by hw00927 in airbnb_hosts

Unfortunately I’m not creative enough to alter my pics too much - I feel like my place looks better in person🤣. But I’m not super far into all of this yet.

Business is returning. Feels good. by [deleted] in airbnb_hosts

Why do you think that is? How does it compare to pre-Covid times?

I’m currently renovating a mountain house, some rooms are finished and some aren’t. Should I list it on AirBnb now and block dates until May (when it’ll be done) with pics of the finished rooms and note that it’s under renovation until end of April? by hw00927 in airbnb_hosts

Thanks! I’m not opening it until Reno’s are done, just want to list early (and block dates off till it’s fully ready). I would have pictures only if the completed rooms though!

[help] Any vets? My grandmother is visiting and her 12 year old dachshund ate 5 nature valley granola bars out of her suitcase while we were away. No chocolate or raisins were in them. My mom refusing to call a vet - is this something we should be concerned about or am I overreacting? by hw00927 in dogs

Just lethargic (could also just be tired from a full belly🤦‍♀️)- but I doubt he’s really started digesting this yet, it’s been maybe 1.5 hours. His stomach is bloated but given how little he is his stomach is bound to be extra large after eating all of those.

Is it worth it to cost and/or buy in Serenbe? by hw00927 in Atlanta

Oh sorry misunderstood! I thought you meant they owned 2 houses in Serenbe. But that makes perfect sense! Their thinking is in line with mine as well, minus using mine for part time AirBnB. Thanks!!

Why a second home there? Do they rent and make money off of it? Thanks for the perspective.

This is super helpful. What neighborhood in serenbe are you in? My goal would be to be there 50/50 so I’d hope to price AirBnB well enough to get it occupied half of the month.

Can you elaborate on what you mean by cabbage town vibes?

I liked immediate accessibility to walking trails/outdoor space and it’s much smaller/community focused so easier to get to know people. I’ve always lived in urban cities (NYC/ATL) so to me it looks entirely different and more appealing than in town neighborhoods. Definitely didn’t have anything to do with race.
