“Gee, let’s purchase a short-term rental, two properties on the same lot, in fact, and see what happens!”
Said NOT Carin and Steve.
Originally yearning for a small cabin in Crestline, one in which we could share with family and friends, little did we know we’d fall in LOVE with this other property right down the street from what we’d end up purchasing. Thus, we knew the minute we walked through the door, Snuggle Inn was special. We had NO idea how to run a short-term rental business, though no matter, we knew we could not let her go.
This was November 2018. TONS of mistakes later, there are also TONS we’ve learned. With each guest, more appreciation, more value of their experience. That first year was something else! Now in the thick of our second year, during a global pandemic, Steve and Carin look more closely to details, from the travel-sized shampoos, firewood, snacks and wine, and s’mores for summer evenings, we love providing all the little extra’s to ensure a magical time is shared by all.
We made the RIGHT decision. :)
