About the host
Hosted by Randy Sklar
Halie and I love to travel with and without our five children to our homes and other places as far away as Italy, France, and all over the USA!
We are continually looking for new adventures and experiences!
We spend many weekends at our Mountain Home in Lovingston, VA. and as much time at our Beach Home in Siesta Key, FL.
When Halie and I started hosting at our mountain getaway home in 2015, we wanted to create the same enjoyable experience we get when visiting our homes - for our guests.
Through the process of asking for suggestions, make improvements, and learning from other experiences when we travel, we believe we are providing an enjoyable experience for our guests. The constant positive reviews and super host status tell us we are on the right track.
Our favorite part of hosting is reading our guest book and getting personal messages about how great their stay was at our homes. I feel we aren’t just hosting guests rather providing vacation experiences focused on creating lasting memories for you, your families and friends.
The greatest feeling is when a group comes back for a second, third or many more vacation experiences.
