I took a tax sale attorney to breakfast and he told me all that I felt I needed to get started.

There are not enough hotels and bed and breakfast spaces for all these people, so private bnb rentals (such as Airbnb, Vrbo, etc.) are booming in Salem.

I owned bed and breakfasts for 24 years and house hacked them living among the guests.

@Noah Bacon thank you for this suggestion!

@Noah Bacon my sister was the one put down over 250K down payment for the house, I had been helping paying their mortgage for most of the time because my nephew has no money since he is still in school, just his name is on the loan and title.  

For what it's worth, some ideas I've seen pitched are grocery bundles (e.g. a breakfast bundle for 2-4 people with eggs, bacon, bagels, cream cheese, and OJ all pre-stocked in the fridge), meal kits, a pre-stocked drink fridge, charcuterie boards, premium coffee selection, bike/e-bike/scooter/kayak/canoe rentals, video game consoles, upgraded work-from-home office amenities (e.g. oversized computer monitor), etc.I'm not a lawyer, but cocktail kits, bottles of wine, local craft beer, and other alcoholic items seem like they would fall into a grey area from liability perspective. 

@Noah Bacon Contractors in my area are difficult.

When I started in my 20s and I was able to drink brake fluid and nails for breakfast, I was listening to 3 podcasts a day and analyzing deals from sunrise to sundown.
