Tips for Vacation Home Rentals
Make sure to thoroughly read reviews for any house or condo you are considering and look for comments about WiFi, cleanliness, location, responsiveness, etc. This will help you weed through the options you have and maybe even answer some questions that were going to ask. All of them should have pictures also so that you can see what you are getting. This is a great thing to do for hotel stays, condo visits, and house rentals too!
You will also need to keep in mind that when you are renting a condo or put-in-bay rental home, you need to find out what the cleaning fees will be, if any. This is not usually something that is built into the price of your stay, especially if you book through a third party like Airbnb or VRBO. At the Island Club and Put-in-Bay Condos, they do NOT charge extra for cleaning fees! Ever! It is always cheaper to #BOOKDIRECT.
Depending on where you are booking your house, keep an eye out for different service fees that will get added to your per night rate that you thought you were paying. The sticker price almost never includes these extra fees. But again, at Island Club and the Condos, there are NO extra fees added to your rate. No surprises.
Checking out is different from a standard hotel. When you rent a house you will need to make sure that you know what is expected of you in regards to cleaning and tidying up before you leave. You may be required to strip the beds, take out the garbage, set the thermostat or even make sure certain things are turned off. Make sure you have time to do these things before you leave and before the check-out time.
Plan your arrival to coincide with when you can check into the house that you rented. You can’t leave your bags in storage like if you were staying at a hotel with a bellhop. If you want to go somewhere right away on arrival, do you feel comfortable leaving all of your stuff and/or food in a possibly hot car!? Check the trip length and plan accordingly, be it from Cleveland or Toledo or even as close as Sandusky.
One of the main upsides to renting a house is that you can cook your own food and have leftover space. When booking a house you might want to look into making a grocery store list. You can map out a store that is on the way to the Bay and stock up on food and beverage before you get to the house.
Keep in mind that supplies are limited at the general store downtown (walking distance) and most everything that they do carry will cost more than at home because it has to be hauled over. So ideally you should try to bring as much of your provisions as you can from home or from one of the mainland stores (Walmart, Bassetts, Kroger, etc) in Port Clinton or Catawba Island.
You really want to make sure that you are reading what is offered at your house. Kitchen utilities, bedding, pillows, soap, towels, sponge, spices; some house rentals will not supply everything that you would want. If things are not listed you can always message the vacation rental manager about them. For example, coffee makers. What kind of coffee maker is it? Do you need to bring filters?
If the house has a washer and dryer and you think that you will end up using it, you will want to bring your own detergent and dryer sheets. You also might want to think about bringing detergent pods since they pack a lot easier. With all the fun that you will be having at the pool, the dryer will come in handy for your towels. It is a universal truth that kids love to swim in a pool at almost every vacation destination in the world.
You may want to think about bringing your own hand sanitizer. Our Put-in-bay rental home and condo units do not provide hand sanitizer for your stay. Especially if you have younger kids you will want to try and make sure that they are getting into the habit of washing their hands every time they come inside the condo or house.
You will also want to look into bringing disposable masks. Currently, State of Ohio regulations says that you must have a mask on when you are inside a retail establishment. The ferries (Jet Express and Miller Ferry) also require masks as do all the bars and restaurants. However, the rules are easing gradually!!!
