🏞️WELCOME TO AN AMAZING STAY!
We’re Dan and Jacqueline, partners in life and hospitality for almost eight years now. Our journey into vacation rentals began with a shared love for travel—and a few unforgettable stays that shaped how we host today. From a cozy vacation rental in Catalina Island, California, where the host welcomed us with a box of cookies and a handwritten note, to a dusty lake cabin in Cooperstown, New York, complete with spider webs, no AC, a broken coffee maker, and no host or management team to turn to—we’ve felt the full spectrum of guest experiences.
Those moments taught us that hospitality lives in the details. That’s why we’ve built a dedicated management team that shares our commitment to guest satisfaction and property excellence. From timely communication and rapid response to maintenance issues, to ensuring every space is spotless and thoughtfully prepared, our team works behind the scenes to make sure your stay is seamless from start to finish, without compromising your privacy.
Our homes are meticulously maintained to meet the highest standards of cleanliness. Every corner, from the coziest bedrooms to our inviting hot tubs, is sparkling clean and ready to offer you a relaxing, worry-free escape. Whether it’s a foosball cooler for family fun, a standard-size crib for traveling parents, lake gear for spontaneous adventures, or personalized touches that make guests feel truly seen—every home we design, and host reflects the kind of experience we’d want for our own friends and family.
We’re always looking for ways to make your stay even better, and we love hearing from guests long after checkout. Whether it’s your first visit or your fifth, we’re here to make sure it feels like home.
Your Hosts,
Dan & Jacqueline
