I'm about to leave HomeAway, because they've put policies in place that put them between me and my renters. I vet my renters, I have a contract that asks for the names and ages of everyone who'll be staying, as well as asking for references. I take a security deposit that most folks would prefer not to lose.

When someone inquires and says that they'll have 7 or 8 people staying, I stand firm on my 6-person limit. "Can my friends come and stay in their camper?" Nope. My contract actually states, "No high school or college groups," or something like that.

I've never had a problem. We have always had really, truly nice people occupy our cottage.
