For Owners and Managers:

“Hocking Hills is a short-term vacation rental property marketing platform designed to allow property owners and managers a risk free, “no cost to list” alternative website that connects owners and managers to individuals seeking vacation accommodations. Hocking Hills is structured to connect vacation rental seekers directly with property owners/managers without Hocking Hills’s involvement in the customer/owner/manager business transaction and relationship.

Owners and managers who list their properties on this website will collect the rental fees directly from their customers and pay only a small booking fee to Hocking Hills if and when the customer books the property online. The booking commission fee will be predetermined and run from 5% to 10% of the rental amount, with larger rental fee transactions priced with smaller commission fees.

Property owners and managers collect the rents directly into their own bank accounts at the time of payment by the customer, Hocking Hills provides a transaction history report, and owners/managers pay their own accommodations taxes to their state and local governments.

For the Vacation Rental Traveler:

“Hocking Hills" seeks to provide a lower cost alternative to vacationers compared to the large vacation rental companies who dominate the vacation rental market, create monopolies in this space, and charge exorbitant fees to the travelers who book on these platforms. Hocking Hills vacation rental customers will pay a much lower price for the same rental property listed on other websites.
