The months have been flying by in 2025, and sure enough, the summer season will be here before you know it. The summer season is always a busy travel season for Branson where families on summer break come visit to take advantage of the weather and outdoor activities. Now is the perfect time to take a look at your vacation rental and make sure it is ready for the summer. An influx of visitors and higher temps will urge you to make sure the property is in tip top shape. Take a look at how you can prepare your Branson vacation property is ready for more visitors this summer:
Summer Refresh
Branson is also a popular destination for Spring Break for many younger travelers. That means the time between Spring Break and the summer is a great time to check on the stock of your property. Use this time to refresh common amenities such as towels and washcloths so your summer visitors are not stuck with worn down material. It’s also a great time to make sure the property is supplied with other materials such as paper towels, toilet paper, soap, laundry detergent, and cleaning supplies.
Freshen Up the Pool
Whenever you think of summer during a vacation you will probably be thinking of yourself floating in the nearest pool. It is no surprise that the summer season is always a favorite time of year for being in the pool with the hot weather. Many of Branson vacation properties have pools so if yours does it will be a great time to make sure it is looking its best. No one wants a guest to arrive to find a dirty pool that will result in poor reviews. Instead, make sure your pool is properly cleaned before the summer season hits. You can easily have it ready in advance with frequent pool service that management services can help take care of. Having a clean pool is a great way to make sure guests will want to your property time and time again later in the season.
Check Up on Your A/C
No one wants to be stuck inside a property without a working air conditioning in the summer season. Before the influx of guests begin to book their summer break, make sure you do a tune up on your A/C. Having your A/C looked at once a year will make sure that no sudden breakdowns are bound to happen. Technicians will take a look at the inside workings of the unit and replace any parts that are likely to break down. Having your A/C tuned up frequently will also be a much cheaper alternative than having to replace the unit at a moment’s notice if it breaks down. A quick check up is all any A/C needs before the summer season.
Interior Cleaning
As mentioned, Spring Break and the spring season in general is a popular time for guests to visit Branson. Your property may have already seen its spring influx of guests. If so, your property can be due for a deep cleaning that will have every surface in the home thoroughly cleaned. While each property is cleaned prior to an arrival a deep clean will make sure hard to reach areas and surfaces such as floorboards and trims are touched up. This is a great time to make sure all of your windows and ceiling fan blades are clean too. Taking care of the cleaning now before the summer crowd arrives will only make it easier on yourself.
Stock Up on Summer Gear
One of the many reasons why we see so many visitors in Branson is that we are part of the greater Ozarks. The area is known for being a great destination for water related activities with the local rivers and lakes. One great way to help secure bookings in the summer season is by offering amenities to help make a guest’s time more enjoyable. This can be having your own lake and river gear such as kayaks, life vests, river inflatable tubes, and more. Having this equipment on hand will make your guest be so excited that they picked your property over others. If you have a guide book at your property for local restaurants and attractions, make sure it is updated for the summer so your guests know exactly where to go.
