About the host
Hosted by Molly Rayo
Thanks for considering our home for your travels! A little bit about me... My husband and I were born and raised in Ohio. I stay at home with the kiddos, but during school hours you can find me planning our next adventure, or volunteering around the neighborhood. Steve always says I never met a committee I didn’t like!
We love doing lots of different things as a family, but traveling, particularly in the outdoors, is what really gets us excited. We have a lifetime goal of visiting all the US National Parks. The list includes:
-Cuyahoga Valley NP
-Wind Cave NP
-Badlands NP
-Mesa Verde NP
-Great Sand Dunes NP
-Black Canyon of the Gunnison NP
-Rocky Mountain NP
We hope you will choose our home for your stay, but regardless, have a great time during your travels and enjoy spending time with the ones you love!
