Some of the tips are from our courtesy contract and some are just tips we have heard from fellow hosts and guests that make the stay even more special.
This is our most important tip. It seems obvious but as guests, we may get busy planning our trip, packing up the RV, etc. Just be sure to leave a note in the message with the host, a physical note or verbally tell the host "Thank you" for allowing you to stay at their property.
Please fully complete your guest profile. This is the one opportunity a host has to get to know you before they accept your stay at their home. It is important that it is complete and represents you.
Be sure to always confirm your stay. You can do this by going to your User Dashboard, selecting the message with the host, and selecting the green "Confirm Completed." You will know it goes through when you are taken to the host reference page. This is a very important step as it gives the host the credit they deserve for your stay.
Each host makes their own rules and they can change quite a bit from place to place. So, make sure that you refresh your memory on the rules before you arrive at your host location.
On that same note, be sure to review our Courtesy Contract often. It's best to periodically review it to ensure you are familiar with it in order to be the best possible guest.
Each host lists the services that are offered at their location such as electric or water. If their profile does not mention they offer a service, please do not ask them for it. There may be a reason it is not available and after all, we are boondocking.
Always leave your host site the way you found it or better. Our hosts graciously offer their homes as a place to park, let's always be sure to pick up trash and pet mess before leaving.
Hosts graciously offer their homes as a safe place for you to park. It makes them feel more comfortable if you spend some time talking to them, especially when you first arrive. Not all hosts want or have the time to talk for long, so just read your host.
Those are just some of the many tips we have for being a great guest. Stay tuned for host tips!
