What Makes November Unique for U.S. Travel?
November is one of the most underrated months for a domestic getaway. Weather patterns begin to shift across the country, offering a variety of climates depending on your mood. In the West and Southwest, desert regions like Joshua Tree and Sedona become blissfully mild which makes it perfect for hiking and outdoor wellness.
While in the Northeast, places like the Hudson Valley or Berkshires showcase the final notes of fall before the snow begins to fall. This month also marks the end of the harvest season, particularly in wine regions such as Paso Robles, where vineyards glow gold and tastings feel intimate and unhurried.
Meanwhile, tropical destinations like Maui provide warm beach escapes without the bustle of winter crowds. It’s also a strategic travel period: school is in session, most people are waiting for December holidays, and rates tend to be more favorable.
Whether you’re seeking warm sunshine, crisp mountain air, or quiet countryside, November is a sweet spot for relaxed, intentional travel.

“Wonderful stay. The home is huge, with room for the whole family plus friends! The host went above and beyond. This trip was supposed to be a getaway for my husband and me, but unfortunately, we had to evacuate San Diego due to the fire, and they accommodated our two children and pup, no questions asked.. Upon arrival, they stocked the fridge with some salami, cheese, fruit, crackers, wine, and the most adorable cookie decorating kit for the little ones, which was a huge hit. We were exhausted and worried about our home but they made us feel very comfortable. I’m looking forward to returning for the adult getaway!”

Regular maintenance and upkeep are essential to vacation rental home care, but making sure that guests respect your home is an important part of running a successful vacation rental. Limit any chances for confusion or misunderstanding by providing straightforward, concise vacation rental house rules. This will influence how guests treat and leave your property so you’ll never have to worry about its condition. A cared-for home will generate positive reviews, increase bookings, and make you more revenue. Keep reading to find out what you should include in your house rules.
Why it’s important to set vacation rental house rules
Vacation rental house rules are essential to protecting your home—and your guests! Set clear expectations before guest arrival so you’ll never have to worry about crazy parties disturbing your neighbors, pet accidents, or any damage to your property. Include these rules on your listing page so potential guests can decide if your home is a good fit for their vacation, while also limiting the time you’ll spend answering questions. Setting vacation rental house rules puts you in charge and holds everyone accountable.
Things to consider
Even with house rules in place, there’s still a chance that guests may break them. Make sure you define the consequences of breaking any rules, whether it’s a fine, eviction, or both. Include a note with your rules and in the rental agreement. Here are some other things to consider when establishing your vacation rental house rules:
Be straight to the point. “Please refrain from bringing your pets,” is more likely to be broken than “no pets allowed.”
Make your house rules easily accessible. Include them on your listing page, in your welcome book, and any pre-check-in communications.
Remember that this is your guests’ vacation. It may be tempting to write rules for every little detail in your home, but don’t overwhelm or limit your guests. Set boundaries that still allow your guests to enjoy themselves and your home.
Examples of vacation rental house rules
Every vacation rental property is unique, so create rules that are specific to your home’s location, layout, and amenities. From pets and parties to smoking and quiet hours, be sure to clearly lay out what guests can and can’t do. Here are some examples of common vacation rental house rules.
Typical AvantStay house rules
Club 25
In order to book this property you must be over 25 years old.
Humans Only
Sadly pets are not permitted at this property. Unauthorized pets may be subject to a fine.
Thank You For Not Smoking
This is a smoke-free home. Violation of the no-smoking policy will result in forfeiture of the full security deposit and damages liability up to $2,500.
Respect Community Rules
Please be considerate of your neighbors and mindful of noise levels. Noise violations may result in fines. Please also note we do not provide speakers or sound systems.
Other common rules
There are several areas of concern that apply to most vacation rental homes, so be sure to include rules for the following:

Parties and events
Off-limit rooms or areas
Electronics and appliances
Pools and hot tubs
Decks and balconies
Parking/garage use

Know the Signs When Your Mind and Body Need a Pause
It’s very easy to feel overwhelmed today. Between work stress, endless screen time, and the pressure to keep up, many people find themselves burned out, distracted, or running on empty. Sometimes, your body and mind send clear signals that it’s time to slow down. But with busy schedules and constant distractions, those signs are easy to ignore.
Mental health and self-care are more important than ever. And paying attention to how you feel, both physically and emotionally, is the first step in your journey to mental stability and healing.
Here are some common signs that you might need to take a break and consider a digital detox:
You feel tired all the time, even after a full night’s sleep.
Small tasks feel overwhelming or unusually difficult.
You’re feeling stressed, anxious, or emotionally drained.
You’re easily irritated, on edge, or more reactive than usual.
You’ve lost motivation or interest in things you usually enjoy.
Your body feels tense, achy, or worn down.
You’re in doom-scrolling mode and always checking your phone.
You’re having trouble sleeping, focusing, or staying present.
You feel disconnected from yourself, others, or what matters most.
You just feel “off”—like something’s missing or out of sync
If any of these sound familiar, it’s your body and mind asking for attention. And one of the best ways to reset? A simple change of scenery. An active trip—especially one that’s quiet, tech-light, and close to nature—can help you recharge.
Whether it’s a solo retreat to clear your head or a weekend away with people who make you feel grounded, time off isn’t selfish—it’s smart. When you take care of yourself, everything else gets better, too.
Find Your Rhythm Again
Taking time away in nature can help bring you back to balance. Whether you’re sitting outside in the quiet, journaling in the morning light, or simply stepping away from your phone, these small moments of peace are the starting points for supporting your mental fitness, building emotional resilience, taking care of yourself, and reducing overall stress.
Coping with life isn’t just about escaping. It’s about choosing to slow down and reconnect with nature, your people, and your own well-being. Because when you feel rested, you think clearer, breathe easier, and return stronger.It’s not easy to break away from the lifestyle that you’re used to, but starting small are big steps to feel like yourself again.

“Plenty of room and very comfortable. With bedrooms upstairs and on the bottom level, this home would be ideal for a large family or group. Short drive to Park City and to Heber City as well. The hot tub was nice after a long day on the slopes. I would recommend reading the instructions that are sent (I didn’t) as they shared helpful information that I would have taken advantage of i.e. having groceries delivered since we arrived after 10pm and local ski equipment rental in the neighborhood. Kitchen is well appointed with plenty of pots, pans and even a variety of spices. Everything was very clean and well done. Would definitely recommend.”

“Blown away!!! This vacation rental exceeded every single one of our expectations and then some. The level of care and attention the hosts provided was extraordinary. They had a high chair and 2 pack n play cribs in the condo ready to go for us. Made it so easy. The condo itself was immaculate, modern, clean, and equipped with all the amenities you could want. Great views through the massive windows. Parking spot in the parking garage is 2 steps from your door, on the same level as the kitchen and main living room. True ski in/out off your porch. Every detail is carefully thought out to ensure maximum comfort and convenience. One of the most impressive experiences was how accommodating the staff was. We had a little trouble figuring out how to use the TV and the gas fireplace, and they had someone, Chris (a lifesaver!), at the door within 15 minutes! He was so friendly, replaced the batteries in the remote, walked us through how everything worked, and made sure we were completely set up. They even followed up later to apologize for the “inconvenience,” though honestly, it barely felt like one at all, especially given how quickly they helped us out! If you’re looking for a place where luxury meets genuine hospitality, this is it. I could not say enough to compliment how fantastic the condo, location, and AvantStay was. Thank you for going above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable!”

“Recently stayed in this property with our extended family and had a wonderful time. There was plenty of room for everybody, the home is immaculately clean, and views are spectacular! It snowed during our stay and we were grateful that the neighborhood was promptly plowed and the driveway was heated, which made getting in and out a breeze. AvantStay was easy to work with, regularly communicated with us to make sure that check-in and check-out were seamless, and was responsive to all of our needs throughout our stay.Anybody staying here should be aware that the neighborhood is still under construction (which the listing makes clear), but we didn’t find it obtrusive and wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.”
You might know Park City is best for its amazing ski slopes in the winter, but honestly? This town is a total blast all year round. So, the answer is no.

Are you looking for things to do in the Smoky Mountains? We’ve put together a round-up of the top activities in the area.
Great Smoky Mountains National Park is on the border of Tennessee and North Carolina, not far from Knoxville and Asheville. There are fun activities both in the national park and nearby towns.
Whether you’re an outdoorsy person who loves hiking or you would rather cozy up in a mountain cabin with a cup of hot chocolate, there is something for everyone. Get adventurous on a rollercoaster ride, see historic structures, or have fun at a casino.
We’ll discuss the top things to do in the Smoky Mountains for every season. No matter what time of year you visit, you can have an unforgettable experience. Read on to discover the best things to do in the Smoky Mountains today!
Hit the trails in the spring
There’s nothing like springtime in the Smoky Mountains. Rhododendrons, mountain laurels, and wildflowers are in full bloom, and the temperatures rise to the mid-60s and higher.
If you visit the mountains in early spring, you might be able to hit the ski slopes. However, for the most part, the snowy weather will be gone by March.
Spring is a perfect time for outdoor activities like hiking, and we’ll discuss the best trails to check out. Also, consider visiting open-air historic sites.
Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail
Take a drive on Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail, a winding road that snakes through the Smoky Mountains. It’s a one-way loop road that extends for five miles, and you can enjoy some of the most scenic drives in the mountains.
It takes about an hour to drive through Roaring Fork, but there are many things to do along the way. Stop at the Visitor’s Center at the head of the motor trail to pick up a guidebook.
You can park and hike along sunny trails or check out waterfalls and historic buildings. Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail is one of the top-recommended activities in the area, and it’s an experience you won’t want to miss.
Chimney Tops Trail
Hike Chimney Tops Trail in the spring to see rushing streams and beautiful mountain views. It’s just a few miles south of the Sugarlands Visitor Center on the northern side of the mountain range.
Chimney Tops Trail is just a short drive from many of our top rental properties. Check out the four-bedroom Fontana or the Pine Needle house with a hot tub.
Abrams Falls
Abrams Falls is a hiking trail area near Mill Creek. Take a five-mile hike to see the 20-foot waterfall named for a famous Cherokee chief.
The stunning pine tree forest is full of blooming rhododendrons in the spring, and you can take a leisurely walk through the nature preserve. It’s a moderately challenging hike, and you might need prior experience before embarking on this trail.
Tricorner Loop Trail
Consider the Tricorner Loop Trail if you’re a fan of backpacking. It stretches over 31 miles and offers spectacular views of the Smoky Mountain Range.
Head to the Big Creek campground to find the Tricorner Loop trailhead. While you can hike it during any season, we recommend visiting in the spring when temperatures are mild.
Horseback Riding
You can go horseback riding in the Smoky Mountains starting in mid-March. There are four stables in different park areas, and you can take a short ride or go out for the afternoon.
Check the schedule to see if a ranger-led tour is coming up or ride with a local guide. You can also book carriage and wagon rides through the park.
Laurel Falls
Laurel Falls is one of the longest paved trails in the Smoky Mountains National Park. It’s ideal for adventurous hikers, and you can trek the entire trail in about two hours.
Some steeper sections can get slippery, so avoid the trail during spring showers. The waterfall at the end of the hike features a wooden bridge perfect for an Instagram photo opportunity.
Mt. Leconte
Mt. Leconte is the third-highest point in Tennessee and one of the best places for spring hiking. It’s in the Blue Ridge Mountain range of Smoky Mountains National Park, and you can enjoy waterfalls, overlooks, and local wildlife. If you’re lucky, you might even spot a llama!
Grotto Falls
Head to Grotto Falls for a peaceful spring hike. The waterfall is over 25 feet high, and the environment is home to an abundance of wildlife, including salamanders.
You can access the waterfall through the Trillium trail system, which takes you on a three-mile scenic journey past rushing mountain streams. The hiking trails wind through rocky pathways and a beautiful hemlock forest.
Oconaluftee Indian Village
Oconaluftee Indian Village is a living museum in Cherokee, North Carolina. It’s on the southeast border of the Smoky Mountains, and the outdoor museum is ideal for a warm spring day.
The location is a historical replica of a Cherokee community dating back to the 18th century. The Cherokee Historical Association runs the museum, and you can learn about the daily life and customs of the Cherokee people.
Guided tours start every 15 minutes, so grab a spot and explore the facilities. Check the schedule to see if a dance or other event is happening soon.
Andrews Bald
Don’t miss Andrews Bald, a scenic grassy clearing named after a cattle herder in the 19th century. You can access it via Forney Ridge Trail, a short hike near the Clingmans Dome parking lot. It’s a year-round trail, but we recommend visiting in the spring to see the Innocence wildflowers bloom.
Near the end of spring, watch for blackberries and raspberries along the trail. There’s an elevation change of 1,200 feet to get to Andrews Bald, so bring plenty of water to hydrate yourself.
Get adventurous in the summer
Are you looking for a summer getaway? The summer is the height of the tourist season in the Smoky Mountains. There’s a massive number of things to do, from theme parks to water sports, and you might feel overwhelmed.
Fortunately, we are here to help. We’ll go over the best summer activities in the Smoky Mountains, including outdoorsy excursions in the park, exciting roller coasters, and local sightseeing.
There’s something fun to do no matter where in the mountain range your accommodation is. Get in touch with local wildlife at the petting zoo, hit the rapids in an inner tube, or take a cave tour if it’s hot outside.
Dollywood
A trip to the Smoky Mountains wouldn’t be complete without a visit to Dollywood, a theme park in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. Owned by the legendary country music artist Dolly Parton, Dollywood is an Appalachian-themed attraction with rides, water slides, and gift shops.
Dollywood is an essential trip for any Dolly Parton fan, and you can learn about her life and legacy at the Chasing Rainbows Museum. Listen to live country music at night or walk through Dolly’s Country Home attraction.
Even if you aren’t familiar with Parton’s music, you can enjoy the roller coasters and the Wild Eagle, a 135-foot drop. End your day with American cuisine from Red’s Drive-In.
Seven Islands State Birding Park
Head to the great outdoors and explore Seven Islands State Birding Park in Kodak, Tennessee. It’s just north of the Smoky Mountains, not far from Knoxville.
The park is ideal for summer fun. Hike, ride a bike, fish in the river, or look out for protected wildlife like barn owls, waterfowl, and hawks. Seven Islands borders the French Broad River, where you can kayak or canoe in the summertime.
Ober Gatlinburg
Ober Gatlinburg is an amusement park next to the Smoky Mountain range’s north border. It’s full of adventurous rides and attractions, but there are quieter activities like mini golf if that’s more up your alley.
Ride the roller coaster and try your hand at the rock climbing wall. You can beat the summer heat at the waterslide or grab a bite to eat at the Ober Loft Lounge.
Dollywood’s Splash Country
Dolly Parton owns multiple theme parks in the Smoky Mountains area, but Dollywood’s Splash Country is one of our top picks for local summer activities. It’s a great way to cool down on a hot Tennessee day, and the water rides are fun for families or groups of friends.
Head to Pigeon Forge to visit this 35-acre splash park and ride the Mountain Scream Slide and Raging River Rapids inner tubing. The attraction is open from May to September, and you can book tickets in advance.
Clingman’s Dome
Clingman’s Dome is a mountain peak in the North Carolina area of the Smoky Mountains. It’s the highest point in the Smoky Mountains range, and the 360° views of the park are spectacular.
The paved trail system is only open in the summer and fall, so schedule a hike before the season ends. There’s also an observation tower perfect for watching summer meteor showers.
Whitewater Rafting
Go whitewater rafting on the Pigeon River for a fun summer activity. You can rent a raft from March to October, and the nearly seven-mile path includes 70 rapids.
A certified guide will take you upstream, and you’ll have a thrilling experience on the rapids. We recommend booking a reservation and scheduling around two hours for a raft trip.
Rainbow Falls Trail
The Rainbow Falls Trail is a winding forest trail that leads you to an astounding 80-foot waterfall. It’s in the Roaring Fork area, about five miles from Gatlinburg. If you’re interested in Gatlinburg rentals, consider our Ashberry property which sleeps ten people, or our Sugar Cove log cabin.
We recommend visiting during the summer to catch a glimpse of a rainbow. The light streams through the waterfall on sunny days, creating a shimmering rainbow effect.
Smoky Mountain Deer Farm and Exotic Petting Zoo
The Smoky Mountain Deer Farm and Exotic Petting Zoo are in Sevierville, just north of Great Smoky Mountains National Park. You can book a summer trail ride on a horse or pony, watch wildlife, or visit cute animals at the petting zoo.
The farm and zoo encompass over 140 acres of natural beauty, and the institution has been around for nearly four decades.
This spot is good summer fun for the whole family. Kids even receive discount tickets!
Smoky Mountain Alpine Coaster
Bring some adrenaline to your trip and ride the Smoky Mountain Alpine Coaster. With one mile of track, it claims the title of the longest downhill ride in the United States.
This one-of-a-kind ride allows you to control the speed, making the roller coaster thrilling to experience. The attraction is in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, north of the Smoky Mountains.
Forbidden Caverns
Although it varies by area, summer in the Smoky Mountains can be hot. Skip the heat and cool off at a below-ground cave tour at Forbidden Caverns.
Forbidden Caverns is in the Sevierville area, just off Blowing Cave Rd. Descend into the cave and tour the tunnels, with handrails and lighting, for an incredible experience.
You can book a guided tour and check out the underground river and ancient cave formations. It closes during the cold season, so catch this attraction in the warmer months.
Kayaking
Kayaking on a clear day in the Smoky Mountains is an unbeatable experience. There are dozens of lake and river spots great for kayaking, but we recommend the Little Tennessee River in Maryville.
You can book a kayak from one of the local rental agencies and spend the afternoon paddling peacefully through the river. Stop by the Citico Recreation Area to enjoy lunch by the waterfront.
Find spooky fall attractions.
Spend your fall vacation in the beautiful Smoky Mountains enjoying the fall foliage and fresh mountain air. The leaves change into brilliant fall colors, the temperature drops, and the peak tourist season levels off, making it an ideal time for a weekend getaway.
You can check out one of the campsites at the national park or go sightseeing in a nearby town and enjoy the crisp fall weather. Keep an eye out for black bears, as they’ll be venturing out to stuff themselves to prepare for winter!
Fall can be a spooky time of year, and nowhere more so than in the Smoky Mountains, legendary for its eerie natural fog. We’ve selected some creepy-themed activities and other ways to enjoy fall in the Smoky Mountains.
Elkmont Ghost Town
Fall is the perfect time to visit Elkmont Ghost Town. The cooler temperatures are ideal for a long walk around the once-inhabited buildings.
In the early 20th century, Elkmont, formally known as Little River, was a weekend getaway destination for wealthy Tennessean families. When the National Park Service annexed the area, the buildings were left to deteriorate. Today, there’s now an eerie ghost town of both abandoned and restored historic houses.
Cades Cove
October and November are the best months for visiting Cades Cove. The fall foliage will be in full swing, and you can see some of the best wildlife sightings in the area.
Cades Cove Loop Road, an 11-mile stretch of paved road, encircles the cove. You can take a beautiful self-guided tour and enjoy the orange and red trees by driving the route or exploring it on foot on certain days. Take a hayride on a chilly fall afternoon and experience guided commentary from the NPS.
Newfound Gap Road
Newfound Gap Road runs right through Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and it’s one of the easiest ways to experience the park. The trees are brilliant red and orange colors during the fall, making this drive one of the prettiest in the region.
Morristown
Want to see the location of a real horror movie? Morristown was the filming spot for the iconic 1981 film Evil Dead, and it’s a perfect place to visit in the fall months.
The cabin used in the film sits right in the woods near the Smoky Mountains, and you can venture into the forest to see its remains. Consider staying at one of our nearby properties, like Bluestem.
Mingus Mill
Mingus Mill is a historic grist mill built in Cherokee, Tennessee, in 1886. Parts of the machinery are still functional, and you can see the water turbine at work on a guided tour. It’s open to visitors until the end of the fall season.
The mill is just a half-mile from the Oconaluftee Visitor Center, so stop by for cultural exhibits, ranger programs, and a bookstore. The mill and visitor center is in the southern part of the Smoky Mountains National Park, near Newfoundland Gap Road and Cherokee, North Carolina.
Appalachian Trail
The Appalachian Trail is undoubtedly among the most famous attractions in the area, with over three million yearly visitors. It’s one of our top picks for fall because the weather is temperate, and there are fewer tourists than in the summer.
The trail cuts through the Smoky and Blue Ridge mountains, following the Tennessee-North Carolina border. Consider taking a weekend getaway to section-hike the Appalachian Trail or drive up to the trail entrance for a photo op.
Nantahala National Forest
Don’t miss Nantahala National Forest in Bryson City, North Carolina, a pristine natural reserve with waterfalls, campsites, whitewater rafting, and horseback riding. Hike over 60 miles of trails and enjoy the fall colors of the National Forest!
Blue Ridge Parkway
Driving the Blue Ridge Parkway is a great fall activity. It’s a National Parkway with scenic views, and the road boasts attractions like Mount Mitchell, Linville Gorge, and New River, the oldest river in North America. The parkway ends in Cherokee, North Carolina, near the Smoky Mountains.
See the snowy mountains in the winter
Winter is the offseason in the Smoky Mountains, but there’s still plenty to do. Curl up with a cup of hot chocolate at a hotel, learn about local culture at a heritage center, or check out a museum.
The Smoky Mountains have plenty to offer if you’re a winter sports lover. It’s just a few minutes round trip between the park and the ski areas, and you’ll be acing the slopes in no time.
The National Park is beautiful in the winter, from the snow-capped mountains to the slow flurries gracing the spruce firs. Spend your winter break in the Smoky Mountains, and you won’t be disappointed!
Harrah’s Cherokee Hotel and Casino
Harrah’s Cherokee Hotel and Casino is an upscale resort in Cherokee, North Carolina, off US Route 19. It’s just a 20-minute round trip from the Smoky Mountains, so you can retreat to the casino and play a round if it gets cold. Enjoy top restaurants, live music performances, and designer shopping while the snow falls outside.
Great Smoky Mountains Heritage Center
The Great Smoky Mountains Heritage Center is a fantastic way to learn about the local area without venturing outside. It’s in Townsend, Tennessee, right next to the entrance to the Smoky Mountains.
The galleries and exhibits range from Cherokee history to regional cooking practices. Visit for a concert or festival, see ancient pottery on display, and learn about the traditions of Townsend and Cades Cove.
The Mountain Farm Museum
The Mountain Farm Museum is near the southern border of the Rocky Mountains, not far from the town of Cherokee, North Carolina. It’s a collection of historic farm buildings dating back to the 19th century.
The Davis House is a log cabin made entirely from now-extinct American chestnut wood, and you can also see a working blacksmith shop with authentic tools. Learn about daily life in the 1800s and visit an apple house, barn, and log farmhouse. You can take a self-guided tour or see a demonstration of historic gardening or livestock practices.
Cataloochee Ski Area
Cataloochee Ski Area sits at 5,400 feet near the Maggie Valley area in North Carolina. The ski season peaks from mid-December to the end of February, so schedule your ski trip to coincide with the heavy snow. Cataloochee Ski Area also has snow-making machines to ensure your vacation is perfect if the winter is mild.
Sugarlands Visitor Center
Sugarlands Visitor Center is on the north side of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. It’s a few minutes from Gatlinburg, on the Tennessee side of the mountain range.
The center is the perfect place to introduce yourself to the national park. Stop by for information about the area, and find out what local plants and wildlife you can see in the winter.
There are natural history exhibits to explore and programs led by the NPS park rangers. They offer special winter hours, so check the schedule before going.
Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies
Don’t miss Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies, the perfect activity for a snowy winter day. It’s on River Road in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, on the north border of the Smoky Mountains.
The massive aquarium contains more than 10,000 sea creatures in ten different galleries. Book your tickets and step into the fascinating world of sea life!
Each gallery has a theme, like the Penguin Playhouse, the Shark Lagoon, and Stingray Bay. Stop by for a live show like the daily penguin feedings or a lecture on coral life.
Wrapping up
The Smoky Mountains comprise some of the most beautiful territories in the southern United States. From sprawling pine forests to snow-capped mountains, the natural beauty of the mountain range is unparalleled.
Explore wildflower-covered hiking trails in the spring, and feel your heart race as you fly down rollercoasters and waterslides in the summer. The Smoky Mountains turn red and gold colors in the fall, perfect for a hayride or drive, and the winter is ideal for skiing or touring museums.
Great Smoky Mountains National Park has attracted visitors for nearly a century. The picturesque scenery, historical structures, theme park attractions, and outdoor activities make it the ideal place for a vacation.
Truth be told, the desire to spend the day by the pool doesn’t just go away as you get older. Even better than your average backyard water game is the forever fun water slide.

Successfully managing a vacation rental requires a lot of preparation. From complying with local regulatory laws to knowing what to stock for your guests, there’s a lot to think about.

A great vacation rental management company will create a stress-free experience for you while maximizing your vacation rental income. However, you could find yourself in a situation where you aren’t happy with your current management company.
Is your vacation rental not receiving proper care to stay in good condition? Is there no proactive communication from your management team? Or maybe you just aren’t making as much as you think you could. Any of these situations are a sign that it’s time to change your property management company. If you’re at the end of your vacation rental management agreement or your current property manager is dropping the ball, it might be time for a change! These tips will help you find a better vacation rental management company that meets your needs and financial goals.
When is it time to hire a new vacation rental property manager
It may seem daunting to change property management companies, but the reward for doing so outweighs any pressure and stress you’re currently facing. The right team will be able to take care of everything to keep your home in pristine condition, consistently booked, and handle all operational tasks that come with managing a short-term rental property. Still unsure if you should switch vacation rental management companies? Here are some signs that it’s time to start your research:
Your vacation rental isn’t consistently booked
Owner statements aren’t clear or you get random invoices
You’re doing your own marketing
You’re communicating directly with guests and vendors
You’re responsible for filing taxes and obtaining permits
Your vacation rental management agreement is almost up
Low/slow season is ahead of you
What to do when switching vacation rental managers
There are many things to consider when choosing a new vacation rental manager. Here are the top things to know before making the switch.
1. Understand the stability of the company
In today’s economy, it’s important to understand the stability of a vacation rental management company. Companies that are not financially set up for success may delay owner payments to pay themselves first, not be able to maintain the number and quality of their local teams, and in the worst-case scenario may end up shutting down entirely—in the middle of high season! Do your research to learn how a company is capitalized, and how they perform in a volatile and uncertain environment.
2. Make sure you’re comparing apples to apples
If your end goal is to make more revenue, make sure you aren’t just looking at the management fee. While a low management fee is enticing, you should think about any extra costs that your new property manager will or won’t cover, how they’ll be pricing your home, and how much revenue they’re able to generate for you. A low management fee could end up costing you more!
3. Meet your local point of contact
Even if it’s just over a video call, make sure you meet the person or team who will be taking care of your home. They should be an expert in all aspects of your market and local vendors. Be sure to ask about other vacation rentals they manage in your area and how they fare against competition, how they optimize for seasonal trends, and how they comply with local regulations.
4. Check that they have good reviews
Check out reviews on Google, Better Business Bureau, Yelp, and Trustpilot to get a sense of a company’s brand reputation and how they respond to any negative feedback. Every company has some bad reviews, so make sure they’re at least doing better than the competition. You can even go straight to the source and ask management companies for referrals from current homeowners.
5. Confirm they know how to transfer your reviews
You’ve put a lot of hard work into creating a great guest experience and cultivating positive reviews. Make sure your new vacation rental manager knows how to transfer over your reviews on Vrbo, otherwise, you’re losing all that traction and recognition from guests.
6. Understand how they manage your existing reservations
A great vacation rental management company will be able to honor your existing reservations so you’re not losing any income during the transition. Once you sign with AvantStay, we ensure that all of your reservations are blacked out on your calendar, transfer over all Vrbo reviews, and take new, professional photos so your listing is fully optimized and ready to drive new bookings.
Other questions to ask:
How large is your rental portfolio? Will I receive local support?
How will you get my home ready for guests?
Will you handle permitting, inspections, occupancy taxes, and insurance?
What are the vacation rental management fees and contract terms?
What services are included in my contract?
How will you advertise my home?
How do I know my home will be in good hands?
Can you guarantee I’ll make more money on my vacation home than I did last year?
What does the transition timeline entail?
How long will my home be off-market?
How much involvement will I have in the transition from my current property manager?
How to break up with your property manager
Once you’ve found the right vacation rental manager for your needs, it’s time to part ways with your current property manager. But don’t worry, breaking up with your property management company isn’t as awkward as it seems. Start by revisiting your vacation rental management agreement. There could be clauses in your contract that allow you to terminate your agreement if your vacation rental manager isn’t delivering on services as stated.
Even if you can’t find a right to terminate your contract, you should still reach out to your vacation rental manager and exercise your right to termination. Keep it simple and be prepared. Make a list of all the things they said they would do but aren’t (with specific examples), along with other reasons the partnership is no longer working. Also, make sure to put your termination notice in writing even if you end your partnership over the phone or in person.
Make the switch to AvantStay
When you partner with a full-service management company like AvantStay, you’ll never have to worry about any of the above. We’ll work with you every step of the way during your termination timeline and transition to AvantStay while going above and beyond to limit the time your listing is offline.
Once you’re brought on to the AvantStay platform, you’ll receive unmatched personalized service through a local Area Manager. They’ll know the ins and outs of your home, vendors, and market and will be able to quickly assist with any inquiries.

Tips for Planning a Big Group Vacation in the Smoky Mountains
Planning a big trip with family, friends, or teammates sounds exciting—but getting everyone on the same page can feel like a challenge! Here are a few of our simple tips to make your upcoming gatherings easy.
Pick a House Built for Groups
Not all cabins are the same. Look for places with open living spaces, plenty of bedrooms, and big gathering areas (like the homes above!). It makes hanging out together way more fun and natural. The group-friendly homes featured in this blog are a great place to start your search!
Plan a Mix of Activities
Some people want to hike, and some just want to chill. Plan one or two group adventures—like visiting Dollywood or hiking Cades Cove—but also leave time for relaxing at the cabin, game nights, and lazy mornings with coffee. If you have limited ideas for your Smokies itinerary, get some more in this curated guide we made—Top 35 things to do in the Smoky Mountains year-round.
Split Up Meals and Chores
If you’re staying for a few days, make it easy: each family or group can take a night to cook dinner or plan breakfast. Big kitchens, BBQ areas, and lots of table space (like you’ll find in these homes) make it simple.
Pick a Central Location
Staying near Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg means you’re close to parks, shops, restaurants, and activities. Everyone can pick what they want to do without spending hours driving around. Plus, you’ll never want to miss visiting the nearby national parks!
Book Early for Big Groups
Big homes go fast—even if it’s in spring, summer, and fall, and especially in winter. Booking a home as early as today means you get the best spots with the best views (and sometimes even better rates!). To add, your group can still plan and save ahead for this trip.
✨ Choosing the right house for your group matters because when you have the right house, the right plan, and the right group, your Smoky Mountains trip will surely be a memory that lasts a lifetime. And these homes were picked to make it easy for you!
Celebrate success, achievement, or a milestone; host a company off-site retreat; or simply catch up with the people who matter most to you. Pick the right Smoky Mountains Airbnb now! No matter the size of your crew, AvantStay has the perfect homes to fit everyone under one roof.

How to Plan the Ultimate Large Group Vacation with AvantStay
Organizing a vacation for a large group—be it family reunions, milestone celebrations, or friend getaways—can be both exhilarating and challenging. To ensure a memorable experience, consider the following steps:
1. Start Planning Early
Large vacation rentals are in high demand, especially during peak seasons. Begin your search several months in advance to secure the ideal property that fits your group’s needs. AvantStay has a curated selection and collection of spacious homes designed for big groups, ensuring comfort and convenience for all guests.
2. Designate a Group Coordinator
Having one person who oversees the planning process can streamline communication and decision-making. This coordinator will handle bookings, collect payments, and liaise with the property owner or manager. AvantStay has a dedicated guest experience team that is available to assist you with any inquiries or special requests.
3. Establish Clear Communication
Set up a group chat or email thread to keep everyone informed. Discuss budgets, meal plans, and activity preferences to ensure everyone’s expectations align. AvantStay’s mobile application acts as digital guidebooks for each property, providing guests with all necessary information, from check-in details to local recommendations.
4. Choose the Right Property
Look for rentals that offer ample space, multiple bathrooms, and communal areas. Amenities like game rooms, pools, or proximity to attractions can enhance the group’s experience. We have numerous blogs on the best vacation rentals for family reunions, Airbnb house lists, and best corporate venues that highlight properties specifically designed for large gatherings.
Decide whether you’ll cook, dine out, or hire a chef. For home-cooked meals, assign cooking duties or consider preparing dishes in advance to save time. AvantStay homes often feature fully equipped kitchens and spacious dining areas, perfect for group meals.
And if you don’t want to stress out on having a stocked kitchen, we also have a grocery delivery add-on that will ease you out during your stay.
6. Allocate Private and Shared Time
While group activities are essential, ensure individuals or families have time to relax separately. This balance prevents burnout and keeps everyone refreshed. Many AvantStay properties offer multiple living spaces and outdoor areas, allowing guests to find their own space when needed.
7. Discuss Finances Openly
Clarify how expenses will be divided, whether equally or based on usage. Using helpful finance apps can simplify tracking shared costs. We provide transparent pricing for each of our homes, making it easier for you to manage your group finances.
8. Prepare for the Unexpected
Consider travel insurance and familiarize yourself with the rental’s cancellation policy. This foresight can protect your group from unforeseen circumstances. Protect your AvantStay trip to have peace of mind when plans change.
