When you stay at a short term rental for your vacation...

[Becky Haag]

#1. What are your top 2 "must have" amenities when you stay at a vacation rental?

#2. Would you stay in a rental that is in a gated community?

#3. Once you have arrived at your vacation destination how many miles are you willing to travel each day to get to restaurants, attractions, etc.?

I'm getting closer to purchasing a home to rent out as a short term vacation rental.  I'm wondering how important it is to be close to the local attractions.  When my husband and I go on vacation and stay for a week we usually do a bunch of day trips to the local attractions and then spend the other days of that week just hanging out.  We don't mind driving, on those day trip days, up to an hour each way to see something new.  We usually find other things to see on our way. Looking for insight to help me make my final decision on a location.  Thank you!
