Now for medium term rentals we supply it all except we don't go over the top and supply food items like oils and spices.

Used to spend some time at Lake San Antonio not too far away (remember going into Lockwood in search of 2 stroke oil one time)I think you are on the right path with the snowball effect (my wife and I used that same method to pay down and off our debt) As far as investing out of state I would highly encourage you to do your research on the area and try and find someone more familiar with the market and the nuances of the market to help you in the beginning. 

Pair that with the summer is busy and we have 10+ guests slathered with oils and god knows what else happens and the pools get cloudy or worse green.

Plus the ability to cook your own meals, outdoor space, being in unique neighborhoods, etc etc . . ...
