Best Price Guarantee terms

If you find the same home for less on another website, send us the link or a screenshot. We will match that price and take 5% off it.

  • The home, dates, number of guests and cancellation terms must be the same.
  • The price must be the total including taxes and fees, and available to book on a public website.
  • Send it before you book or within 24 hours after you book. Call or text 206-410-6688, or message us through your booking.
  • It does not apply to private, member-only or coupon rates, or to rates that are no longer available.
  • It does not combine with RS+ discounts. You receive the greater benefit.

Compare the total at checkout before you decide. Everything else, including the home, the door code and the team, is the same whichever way you book.

FAQ

What happens if something goes wrong during my stay?

Call or text us at 206-410-6688 at any hour, or message us through your booking.

Our team is available 24/7, and you will always reach a person. We aim to reply within 15 mins of receiving a text or email.

If something isn’t right, we make it right during your stay, not after.

We take ownership of the issue, tell you what we are doing and when it will be done, and follow up to confirm it is resolved.

If you have trouble getting in, every home has a backup access plan. 

Our homes are private residences, so there is no front desk on site. What you get instead is a team that is always reachable and accountable for your stay.

Who do I contact during my stay?

We run 24/7 guest services support, so there is someone to reach at any hour rather than a message you hope gets picked up in the morning. Call or text us any time at 206-410-6688.

Why is it cheaper to book direct?

Because the rate on this site is the best rate for the same home and dates, and we do not add a booking fee. Our Best Price Guarantee covers it. Compare the total at checkout on any platform before you decide.

See the Best Price Guarantee terms.

How does check-in work?

By door code, so there is nobody to meet and nothing to coordinate. You can arrive any time after the property's normal check-in time, usually 4pm.

When do I get my check-in instructions?

By email, 24 hours before your arrival date.

How do I pay, and is it secure?

We take all major credit cards. Payments are processed through Guesty Pay, the payment system built into our property management platform, so your card details are handled by the processor rather than stored by us. The charge appears on your statement as Recreation Stays, LLC.

What is the cancellation policy?

Cancellation terms depend on the home and are shown on each listing page before you book, so you can review them before you pay.

Open the home you are interested in and scroll to the Cancellation policy section. If you have a question about a specific home, or need to change your dates, call or text us at 206-410-6688 and we will walk you through your options.

How old do I have to be to book?

Twenty-five. The person making the booking must be at least 25 years old and must be one of the guests staying.

Do I get anything for booking direct more than once?

Yes — RS+ is our loyalty program, and it is free to join. Only direct bookings through recreationstays.com count toward your tier: stays booked through Airbnb, Vrbo or other platforms are not eligible. Status updates within 72 hours of checkout and is reviewed annually.

The property I want is not available. Why?

If a property cannot be booked for your dates it is either already reserved or offline for maintenance. We take deep cleans and maintenance seriously and would rather take a home offline than let it slip below standard.

Will there be a party next door — or in my rental?

Not in ours. We have a strict no-party policy in every home we manage, guests agree to it during booking, and every property has a noise monitor so we can step in before a gathering becomes a problem.
