So as long as the property is a cute, clean, nice place to stay that is in line with tourist expectations, you're in good shape. 

The Broker may want a cut of whatever you are making.

An analogy is with managing retail stock yourself or hand over money to a financial advisor to invest in return for a cut or fee.

Vacasa not only charge a commission they also charge guest facing fees that you do not get a cut of that really makes it more like 40-45% commission that you are paying as guest are only looking at total cost and any charge fees that are adding to the total cost are taking away from your rent and your pocket.

They get a cut of what they can collect.Those who live inside a mailbox there is no way to get them coming out hand you $10K. 

Good luck -  it's a cute house! 

If you get that much interest, my first thought is that you are probably under-priced.Start by "pre-screening" them with a cut/paste response that asks them how much they make, if they are willing to submit to a credit/criminal background, if they have pets, or whatever.

There is a cut out basically in the front yard to park cars, but that’s it.

But, its a cut of the profit he takes off the top.

I agree, I am trying to find a mentor in my area who would be willing to walk me through this first deal for a cut.
