Book direct.Keep the fees.
A direct-booking marketplace for vacation rentals. Our first stay is live in Telluride. Founding hosts can list free. Guests pay hosts directly, with no guest service fees.
Destinations
Places we are building toward
These destinations are geographic inspiration, not a catalog of live inventory. Our first direct listing is in Telluride, and more stays are launching soon.
30+ night rentals
Monthly Stays
Looking for a place for 30 nights or more? We are opening a dedicated monthly stays section for traveling nurses, remote workers, and snowbirds. Hosts can add a monthly rate when they list. We will not fill this section with sample rentals.
For guests
How it works
- 1. Find a stay. Some listings are booked on the host’s own site, with dates and rates shown there. Others can be requested here, with a true total — lodging, cleaning, and estimated taxes — before you request.
- 2. Book with the host. You are not charged by us. Payment goes directly to the host, either on their site or using the methods they share after they confirm a request.
- 3. Pay the host. Use the payment options the host provides. We never hold your money.
For hosts
List free.
Pay a small commission only when you get a booking.
- Create a listing and add how guests can pay you. A listing cannot go live until Payment setup is complete.
- Confirm a request, then the guest pays you directly. You keep the stay amount; we do not process that payment.
- We send a commission invoice (3–5%, 5% in this preview) after you confirm. Pay that invoice to Slipstream Labs — we do not auto-charge a card.

Booking direct
Why booking direct can cost less than Airbnb or Vrbo guest fees
Airbnb and Vrbo publish how their service fees work. Here is that language, plus what changes when you book with a host and skip a platform guest fee.
