Soon to be empty-nesters considering renting out room via Airbnb.

[Johnny Tallon]

Looking for advise or words of wisdom concerning renting out a room/s in our house via Airbnb.  We own a large 5BD/3 1/2BA home near (within 5-20 min drive) 3 ski resorts in northern Utah. Great skiing in the winter and hiking/mountain biking in spring, summer, fall.  The rooms we are considering renting out are in a full walk-out basement with private full/bathroom. We were thinking about renting one room for X amount or both rooms to the same party for a higher amount as both rooms would have to share the same bathroom.  We live in a beautiful area and a big house and thought this might be a good way to generate some extra cash.  Is there anybody out there in a similar situation with information on this topic?  Thanks
