Safety, cleaning, and guest screening

Your safety and the condition of your pool are top priorities. We recommend:

• Clear rules: post pool rules, maximum guest counts, and any age restrictions on your listing.
• Required waivers: guests sign waivers at booking when applicable.
• Cleaning routine: schedule time before and after bookings for routine maintenance and chemical checks.
• Lifesaving gear: keep a life ring, first-aid kit, and a phone nearby.

We also provide host resources and guidelines to help you create a safe, welcoming environment. See more on How It Works for specifics on insurance eligibility and best practices.

Manageability and time commitment

Hosting is flexible — you decide how often and when you rent your pool. Many hosts start small: list a few open hours per week and scale up as you get comfortable. You control your calendar and can block any date or time at any moment.

If you value hands-off hosting, consider enabling self-check-in and setting clear house rules so guests know what to expect. You remain in control of guest selection and can turn down bookings that don’t fit your preferences.

Real host benefits

• Keep most of your earnings: the flat 10% host fee is simple and transparent.
• Protected hosting: $2M liability insurance covers eligible bookings so you can host with confidence.
• Local demand: Utica families and visitors often look for private pools, especially on hot Michigan days.
• Community-focused: hosting helps you meet neighbors and provide a memorable experience for guests.
