Short term rental and security

Mike M.

I'm looking to put a lake house into the short term rental market. It's in a good area with high weekly rental expected (> $5,000 per week in peak season). Looking for some insight from experienced STR's about whether or not guests would be turned off by the presence of exterior security cameras (definitely nothing inside the house - except inside the garage which likely would not be accessible to renters - debating that). I will be managing remotely and I'd like to install cameras to monitor the ground level entrances and the driveway. The presence will be disclosed in the postings and I was thinking of including photos of what the cameras can see in the house binder.
