Stumbling on to a good thing....Colorado related VRBO

[Thomas Hundtoft]

I have been hosting on VRBO here in Winter Park, CO (my home away from home in GJ) and have been doing well with the revenues on the condo. I am really liking the renters. For the most part people have been great. Only one pet owner caused me some heartburn with the other condo owners. One positive externality on the condo rental is the refreshing trend of beverages being left behind. A few months ago I left a few choice beverages in the fridge for those arriving at the condo for their ski vacation. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the beverages I left were replaced with more beverages and a note. The note stated: thanks for the great beer and here are a few from our home state. During the many "turns" of the condo this trend has continued as I did not drink the beverages and those have since multiplied after each visitor departs. Not all leave me their favorite selections, but I do enjoy the ones that do. It is a great way to get 5 stars. Does anyone else host and have a good experiences to share? I know that the vacation rentals have exceeded my expectations and I would like to purchase another. With the current rental market the math works for a nice ROI.
