Rental agreements for vacation homes in Northern Michigan

[Dan Stewart]

Hi guys, We are about to put our vacation home on the market. We are putting together the website and getting everything in place. We were going to put together a contract/rental agreement but we have been told not to. Somebody told us that when you have a contract it can get messy and can get the states laws involved. Does anybody know anything about this? Seems like not having an contract in place would be a horrible idea to me. Thank you for any input! Dan Stewart
