• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are away, just like you would back home.
• During check-in, record any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Frequently, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.

• Inspect the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition.
