Local hosts. Hands-off ownership. A Gaylord-based family that co-hosts your property the same way we host our own.
Short-Term Rental Co-Hosting, Done Locally
MiNorthStays offers co-hosting services for property owners across Traverse City, Gaylord, and the surrounding Up North region. We’re a Gaylord-based, family-run team that already owns and operates many vacation rentals of our own, so we co-host your property the same way we host ours — hands-on, locally, and with an eye for the details that turn a good listing into a fully booked one. From listing setup through guest turnover, our goal is simple: hands-free hosting for you, and a five-star experience for every guest who stays.
MiNorthStays co-hosts a growing portfolio of properties across Gaylord, Traverse City, Elk Rapids, Bellaire, and Harbor Springs.




WHY OWNERS CHOOSE MINORTHSTAYS
We build and promote direct booking sites for the properties we co-host, reducing reliance on third-party platform fees.
Cleaning and maintenance are coordinated by a team that treats your property the way we treat our own rentals.
You’ll have direct access to the McNeal family, not a rotating account manager.
OUR SERVICES
Everything it takes to run a well-booked, well-reviewed vacation rental — handled for you.
OUR PLATFORM
We manage bookings through Hospitable, the same direct-booking and channel management platform we use across our own property portfolio. It keeps your calendar synced across booking platforms and puts your listing in front of guests looking to book direct. Technology only gets a property halfway there — a local team who actually answers the phone handles the rest.
Every property and co-hosting plan is different, so we don’t publish a flat rate. Reach out and we’ll walk through your property and put together a straightforward quote.
Yes. You stay involved in decisions about your property — we handle the day-to-day operations and keep you informed, but it’s still your home.
We co-host cabins, cottages, condos, and lake houses across Traverse City, Gaylord, and the surrounding Up North region — similar to the properties in our own portfolio.
Our team handles guest messaging, check-in support, and anything that comes up during a stay, so you don’t have to be on call.
Most owners block out personal use dates in advance. We’ll work out an arrangement that fits your plans.
It depends on the property, but many owners are live within a few weeks of their first conversation with us.
