Snow Removal from Large Deck? Short Term Rental

[Brady Stout]

Hello,

My wife and I are in the process of purchasing a short term rental property near a ski resort in Colorado.  This property will be a pure short term rental investment property.  I am wondering about snow removal and how others handle it for their properties?  We will have a contract with a snow removal company to clear the driveway and walkway to the house after snow.  However, I am wondering about how we should handle the large deck on the outside of our house that will have a hot tub.  Would guests expect the deck to be cleared of snow?  How do others handle this?  Thank you!
