What Sets Us Apart
Every management company says they're different. Here's what makes the difference concrete.
01.
All-inclusive commission
One commission covers it all. No surprise line items for wine glasses, linens, or trip charges, and no nickel-and-diming on your owner statement.
02.
Local operations managers
Our team lives and works in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee and in Hochatown, Oklahoma. When your cabin needs attention, someone local is already on it.
03.
We manage our own cabins too
Our own properties sit right alongside yours and are run the exact same way. Your cabin gets the same care we give ours.
04.
In-house housekeeping
Our own housekeeping team cleans every stay, with detailed inspections after each turnover, so standards stay consistent from guest to guest.
05.
Damage protection built in
We inspect for damage at every turnover, and we pay for extra damage insurance from a third party, so guest damage doesn't come out of your bottom line. We cover the cost. It is not a fee passed on to owners.
06.
24/7 guest support & maintenance
Guests can reach us any time, day or night, and our maintenance team responds quickly, so small issues get fixed before they become bad reviews.
Getting Started is as Easy as...
01.
Free Rental Review
We analyze your property's potential against our market data and give you an honest revenue projection. No strings attached.
02.
Onboarding
Professional photography, listing creation, and a baseline inspection of the property. Timeline depends on the current condition of your home. For properties that would benefit from a refresh, our in-house design team is available. Refreshes we recommend typically return better than 100% ROI. We only bring it up when it makes financial sense.
03.
First bookings
We launch on all channels simultaneously. Dynamic pricing goes live immediately. Most properties take their first bookings within days.
04.
Ongoing management
From here you receive monthly statements and a quarterly call with your property manager. We handle the rest.

What owners are saying about our services:
“What a breath of fresh air getting our owner statement on time and without a bunch of petty charges for replacing wine glasses, brooms and bottle openers. It’s also nice not to be nickel and dimed on linens, trip charges and other aggravating items. I only wish I had made the decision several years ago to switch to Great Escape Shop now that I see what your marketing machine can do.”-T. R. (recent cabin owner who entered the program after years with another management company)
I just wanted to say thank you for doing an incredible job renting our cabin! Please thank all of your staff as well – they’ve been great to interact with in the few times I’ve contacted them. All I’ve gotta say is you have exceeded my expectations. Great customer service and great rental income so far! I hope it keeps up in the “off season”. I’m beginning to think there is no off season with Great Escape Shop. The cabin is already booked excellent in September.-J.F. (new owner who entered the program after 5 years with another management company)
To follow up with you about how sincere about my happiness with your company I wanted to let you know I received the May rental income today and I believe it is my largest so far! I am happy. We are definitely going in the right direction.-J.P. (new owner, switched to Great Escape Shop after 7+ years with another company)
