Insurance for short-term rentals?

Hi, everyone. Most of my experience lies in the longterm rental property world, but we just picked up a short-term rental in Vermont and are going through the process of getting it ready to go.

The property cost about $415k, and my insurance quote for homeowners + liability was about $4k, which seemed high to me.

Obviously insurance quotes vary greatly by policy, but wanted to get a sense as to what others were paying and what provider they used.

I am used to long-term rental policies, which seem to be less expensive.

Thanks in advance!
