Recommended Inventory Checklist

A starting point for stocking your new short-term rental.

Congratulations on becoming a vacation rental host! Whether this is your first short-term rental or just another investment property, it's good to have a starting point when stocking your place. Bear Lake is lacking in the shopping department, so make sure your guests are covered with all the basics before they arrive.
