@Trent Reeve this is a great use case for ChatGPT. In about 2 minutes this is what I did:
Entered this prompt into chatGPT:
"Pretend to be the host of a short term rental. Send a welcome email to a guest that will be staying at your property soon. "
Output that was generated:
Dear [Guest Name],

Just a few important details about your stay:

Obviously you'd want to customize to your needs, and you might even respond to that prompt with "are there any other details that should be included in this email" if you want some more ideas. I'm not suggesting that you use ChatGPT verbatim, but it can be awesome for sparking ideas or giving you a starting point. Best of luck to whatever you decide!
