How to book the lake house

You deal with the host directly, from first question to last.

1. Look at the house

The house page has the photos, the rooms, how many it sleeps and the house rules. Read the rules before you pick dates.

2. Pick your dates

If the page shows a calendar, tap your check-in day, then your check-out day. Crossed-out nights are taken.

3. Book, or ask first

If the page lets you book, you can do it there. If it doesn't, or you have a question, use the contact page and tell the host when you'd like to come and who's coming. You can also call.

4. Sort out the details

Questions about boats, pets or sharing the house between families are all fine to ask. Say so in your message and the host will write back by email.
