FAQs

What does RS+ cost?

Nothing. It is free to join at recreationstaysplus.com, and you start earning perks from your very first stay.

How do I move up a tier?

By booking direct. Your status grows with each night you stay, and we track both the number of direct bookings and the amount of direct spend within a calendar year — you can reach a tier by either route. Your dashboard shows your progress toward the next level.

What is the biggest benefit of RS+?

The discount. RS+ Insider members get 5% off direct bookings and RS+ Elite members get 10%, and that comes on top of the guest service fee you already avoid by not booking through Airbnb or Vrbo.

Do stays from all booking channels count toward my RS+ status?

No — only direct bookings made through recreationstays.com count toward your RS+ tier status. Stays booked through Airbnb, VRBO, or other third-party platforms are not eligible for credit or perks under the RS+ program.

How do I join RS+?

You can sign up here: recreationstaysplus.com. It’s free to join.

How do I know which tier I’m in?

Just log in to your RS+ dashboard at recreationstaysplus.com using the email you used to join. You’ll see your current tier, available perks, and progress toward the next level.

What counts toward my tier status — nights or dollars spent?

We track both! Some tiers can be unlocked by either a specific number of direct bookings or by reaching a minimum amount of direct spend within a calendar year. Your dashboard shows your progress on both paths.

Can I combine bookings from different emails or group stays?

At this time, RS+ is tied to the primary guest’s email address used at booking. If you’re traveling as a group but someone else books, the stay won’t count toward your status.

How often does my tier status update?

Your status is updated within 72 hours after checkout of an eligible direct booking. You’ll receive an email if you reach a new tier.

Will my status ever expire?

Currently, tier status is reviewed annually based on your direct booking activity in the past 12 months. If you fall below the threshold, you may be moved down a tier — but we’ll always notify you in advance.
