When looking for a place to stay at the Lake of the Ozarks, where’s the first place you look? For many people it’s VRBO or Airbnb. But did you know, that many of the properties listed on those sites are managed by a property manager that you could book directly through? Keep reading to learn more about booking direct and Book Direct Day!
Booking Direct with Property Managers
Booking direct cuts out that third party and the fees associated with using them. When you book through those third party sites, you’re paying to use their service, and that fee can really add to the overall cost of your trip. The good news, it’s avoidable!
If you search the internet for vacation rentals at whatever your destination maybe, you’re likely going to see VRBO and Airbnb pop up at the top of those results, but keep scrolling and see what individual companies you may stumble upon, like Your Lake Vacation.

Also, if you are on a site like VRBO, be sure to look at who the host is. If you see that it is a company rather than an individuals name, try searching online for that business name to find their website and book the place direct with them!
All of our Lake of the Ozarks vacation rentals are listed on VRBO, but they’re also all on our personal website. Booking the property of your choice directly on our website vs. through VRBO could save you hundreds of dollars!
What is Book Direct Day?
#BookDirectDay is a day created to educate vacationers on the benefits of booking direct through a short-term rental management company instead of using third party booking sites, such as Airbnb and VRBO. It takes place on the first Wednesday of February every year, and the best part is that vacationers just like you can often find great travel promotions this time of year!
