About OurTownRentals.com

Live like a local

OurTownRentals.com is a unique collection of vacation rentals by verified owners and managers

Since 2001, OurTownRentals has served an ever-widening community of travelers, who have come to trust our dependable online resource of verified vacation rental properties and local insight guides in wonderful resort towns across the USA. Listings are placed by the owners themselves and include all the necessary rental information plus things to do in the neighborhood and nearby attractions. Travelers are given the confidence and the tools to plan and book their vacation directly with local owners and property managers.

Thousands of unique visitors come through OurTownRentals daily, arriving by way of search engines, our network of local and regional websites, and our rss feeds* to related travel websites. Registered members and fans come directly to the website through bookmarks and recommendation and receive email alerts when a listing is published that meets their search criteria. OurTownRentals also offers a unique concierge service through our ticket system: vacationers submit a ticket with their search criteria, and we send them the links to relevant listings with rates and availability for the dates requested.

For property owners and managers, OurTownRentals offers personal service, one-on-one attention from our staff, and a continuity of care. We coach members on their listings: how to write well, how to take photos, how to be up to date and optimized! Our newsletters offer very practical advice on how to make a property shine online with photos and text. And, at the owners request, we go hands-on to optimize a listing. Each owner and each listing is treated with a high level of attention and care, bringing outstanding results.

OurTownRentals does not aspire to be the biggest vacation-rental-by-owner website on the internet, though we wouldn't mind. But we do aspire to be the most trusted. We know that vacationers appreciate the opportunity and savings when they book directly with owners and managers, but are concerned about the risks of internet transactions. We offer quality, not quantity, in our unique database of verified listings. The travelers trust is our priority with ease-of-use and outstanding design a basic feature of the site. Local tourist information adds more value as travelers focus in on their destination. A substantially high number of inquiries from travelers turn into solid bookings for owners and a great vacation.
