I’m actually a big fan of decorating STRs for Halloween… in moderation. 🎃

The goal isn’t to turn your property into a haunted house. It’s to give guests a seasonal experience that feels warm, festive, and still photographs beautifully.

Here’s what I recommend investing in:

🎃 A classic pumpkin wreath or doormat
🕯️ LED candles for cozy evenings
🍂 Neutral pumpkins and autumn stems
🧡 Soft throws and seasonal pillows
✨ A few quality pieces you can reuse every year

I avoid loud, overly themed décor because it can date your listing and distract from the space itself. Guests should remember your beautiful home first, the Halloween touches are simply the finishing detail.

Affordable, reusable, and intentional always wins.

Halloween has always been a fun holiday, but I think hosts sometimes overlook the booking potential that comes with it 🎃

This year, Halloween falls on a Saturday, which makes it a pretty natural opportunity for guests to turn the holiday into a weekend getaway instead of just a one night celebration.

And that means your October calendar shouldn’t only be marketed as “fall travel” Think about what would actually make your property part of the Halloween experience 👻

Is there a great fall event nearby? A pumpkin patch? Haunted attraction? Family friendly Halloween activities? Maybe your home itself is perfect for a group getaway with a cozy living room, game room, fire pit or a kitchen where everyone can make a big fall dinner.

I’d also be looking at those October weekends now and making sure your listing photos, title, description and local recommendations actually show guests why your property is a fun place to spend the spooky season.

Halloween can be more than a cute social media post. For STR hosts, it’s another reason for someone to pack a bag and book a stay 🎃🏡

What are you doing to make your property stand out this Halloween season?

Driving through Kansas City in October is a dream.

How do I market my lakefront Airbnb after summer is over? I get this question every September, and my answer is always the same: stop selling summer.

Your lake house isn't losing value, it's gaining a completely different audience.

In autumn, I reposition lake properties for:

🍁 Couples looking for peaceful weekend escapes
☕ Guests craving cozy mornings by the water
🚶 Hikers, photographers & nature lovers chasing fall colors
💻 Remote workers who want a quiet change of scenery

I also update the listing photos, adjust the description to match the season, and highlight experiences like fire pits, lakefront coffee, sunsets, and nearby fall events.

The biggest mistake hosts make is keeping the exact same summer marketing. Autumn guests aren't booking boats, they're booking the feeling. That's the difference between filling a calendar and letting a beautiful lake home sit empty.

Every season changes how people travel and autumn is one of my favorites. 🍂

As a co-host, I see booking patterns shift depending on the destination. Beach homes become peaceful weekend escapes, mountain cabins reach peak demand for fall colors, w**e country comes alive with harvest season, and city stays fill up with festivals, football, and cozy long weekends.

For hosts, fall isn't a slow season, it's a strategy season. It's all about adjusting pricing, refreshing your listing, and marketing the experience your location offers this time of year.

Here's to crisp mornings, changing leaves, and unforgettable autumn stays! 🍁🏡

Meet our newest Kansas City stay! 🏡✨

Nestled on the city's prestigious Millionaire's Row, this beautiful home combines peaceful suburban living with unbeatable access to everything Kansas City has to offer.

Just minutes from Downtown, the Country Club Plaza, incredible dining, shopping, and the city's most-loved attractions, it's the perfect home base for family getaways, group trips, or a relaxing weekend away.

And one of my favorite features? This sunny backyard... made for morning coffee, evening conversations, and slowing down after a day of exploring. 🌿☀️ We can't wait to welcome you!

This is one of those features hosts either love or avoid completely.

My opinion? Instant Book is a tool, not a risk.

I almost never recommend turning it on without guardrails. Instead, I set listings up so they only accept guests who meet certain criteria: verified ID, positive reviews, and clear house rules before arrival.

Why? Because reducing friction helps good guests book faster, while your settings still filter out most of the headaches.

The mistake isn't using Instant Book. The mistake is using it without a strategy.

That's how I approach every property I co-host: make it easier to get booked, without compromising the guest experience or the homeowner's peace of mind.

Beach days are a given 🌴 but there's plenty more to enjoy at our Marco Island condo! Guests at South Seas have access to a large heated pool, gym, tennis, pickleball, bocce, and golf so you can mix up your days however you like.

09/16/2026

It’s not just about the condo, it’s about everything you get to enjoy while you’re there ✨

Guests at our Aqua Building 1 listing have access to an outdoor pool, hot tub, fitness center, free on-site parking, plus shared dining and lounge spaces.

All the little extras that make a stay feel that much easier and more enjoyable 💛
