• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents a lot of issues.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are away, just like you would back home.
• To make certain that damages are not linked to your family's stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas during arrival. Contact the host immediately to relay any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
