On October 28, our last guest at The Front Porch Inn checked out. We sold our guest house on October 1, exactly five years after we opened. It was one of the most gratifying experiences of my life. If you love hosting, redecorating, and meeting new people you should consider opening a bed and breakfast. AirBnb is by far the best app because of its enormous reach and user friendly interface. Here's what I learned after 5 years:
Guests want these basic things:
1. A sparkling clean, attractive space. Charm without too much clutter.
2. Reliable WiFi
3. Easy parking
4. Comfortable bedding. White sheets, cozy soft blankets, plenty of fluffy towels.
5. Easy access to owner and accurate information. Too many instructions are annoying.
6. Allow pets. Pet owners were my best most conscientious guests. They are so grateful to be allowed to travel with their fur babies that they typically go above and beyond to leave the place clean and tidy.
I've also learned that outsiders love Richwood. One renter wrote, "I can't believe you get to look at these mountains every day."

They love the friendly merchants and local natural beauty.

I've learned that if you make a face to face contact with them at check in, they are more invested in taking care of your property.

I've learned the little things mean a lot: fresh cut flowers, a bowl of apples or a bottle of wine, local coffee and pastries, travel magazines, even a personal note.

Over a dozen Bnb's are thriving in Richwood. If you want to know more, contact me or any of the other AirBnb owners in Richwood.
