How to prevent party rentals

Steve Fitzgerald

We have a cabin in the North Carolina mountains that is renting well. Its somewhat of a secluded area but we do have neighbors. Sound carries and our neighbor is growing increasingly frustrated by the loud music, profane language, and general disruption of the mountain nights by our renters.

How would you handle this? We do prescreen our guests and have strict rules on no loud music, parties, etc. What else could we do?

We’ve thought about increasing our night rate, increasing our minimum night stay, and slightly decreasing our max occupancy to make it less attractive for party renters. I understand this would increase our vacancies but I’m ok with that.
