Your Experience as an Owner

You have several choices for a property management company in the Table Rock Lake and Branson area. Thank you for considering us!

We get asked a lot about managing vacation rental properties for folks, from past guests, from future investors, and even from serendipitous encounters. Our business model is very focused and not for everyone, and that is perfectly fine. We want you as an owner and investor to be happy with who you choose to manage your property.

What we bring to your property

Competitive commission rates

We know the value of our knowledge, connections, and wisdom that we bring to your property. If you are looking for the cheapest commission rate possible, that is not us.

Incredible guest experience

We focus on what guests need and want. This is proven from our track record of glowing reviews and returning guests. We built our first vacation rental in 2007 and have hosted more than 20k guests since then.

Depth of knowledge

Tyann is a respected industry leader in the vacation rental and short term rental space — worldwide. See her Press page on her website here.

Tyann is a regular guest speaker on industry podcasts, presents at industry events worldwide, co-founded her own industry event, and is considered the leading photography expert in the industry.

She was also a consultant for HomeAway/Vrbo for 3 years and is currently a consultant for Touch Stay digital guidebooks.

Maximizing profit

Our portfolio of properties is actually two brands: Branson Family Retreats in the Table Rock Lake area and Missouri Haus in Missouri wine country. We apply the same principles to all of the properties we own or manage, giving our guests a seamless experience.

What you can expect from us

Treat your property as one of our own

We are a small company, and we leverage that to our advantage. We will care for your place as if it is our own, with the attention to inspections, maintenance, and guest experience.

Technology forward

We use the latest technology and often beta test technology from industry companies that reach out to Tyann for her expertise. The software and technology we use must be beneficial to our guests’ experience, our owners’ experience, and our workflow and business model. Nearly all of the technology we use is at no extra cost to you as an owner, either.

Some of the technology you can expect from us are:

    • Digital guidebooks
    • Beautiful marketing website
    • Smooth reservation booking flow
    • Direct booking on our website
    • Damage protection policy
    • Travel insurance partnerships
    • 24/7 Access to real time numbers
    • Owner dashboard
    • Email alerts for each booking

What our custom digital guidebooks look like

Human touch and relationships

We call every single guest on arrival. We are not a faceless company, and every guest has access to us and our team 24/7, including if your smoke alarm system goes off in the middle of the night as a malfunction (yep, it happens!).

Small, but mighty, in that we have a large family network of properties. Our actual family is our direct competitors with their own properties, but that also means we regularly refer to one another when we are unable to accommodate a guest and that we collaborate together to accommodate an extra large group of guests.

And we are partners with Explore Branson and Visit Table Rock Lake organizations.

Giving back

We are huge supporters of Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) in our home county. Tyann serves on the board of directors, actively fundraising and finding volunteers to serve. CASA supports foster children in the court systems and is key to changing a child’s story.

We donate from our business on a regular basis as well as give guests the opportunity to donate $1 per night of their stay.
