Hi @Joy1956 , welcome to HELL.... I mean hosting lol. You have done the hard part in getting the bricks and mortar right, now just a few small tweaks to the listing, this is all just my opinion and I am by no means a pro at this. Firstly I would sharpen up the description here is a suggestion
Peaceful & Private 2BR Apartment Near Lakebottom Park
This private two-bedroom apartment offers a quiet, spacious retreat designed for comfort and privacy. Located close to Lakebottom Park, it’s ideal for couples, professionals, or small families looking to relax and recharge.
The apartment is attached to a single-family home but fully self-contained, with a private entrance, keyless keypad access, and complete separation from the main house.
Bedrooms & Bathrooms

Kitchen Notes
No stovetop frying (no vent hood) — air fryer provided
Use one small appliance at a time
Unplug appliances when not in use
Quiet, clean, and comfortable — a peaceful place to feel at home.
Next I would pay for professional photos, Yes it is an investment but it will pay for itself after 2 bookings. The property is beautiful and you have obviously spend a lot of time and money on it but it is not showing in the photos. For right now change the main (hero) photo to the main bedroom (photo 4) this is a much better picture to attract attention.
Lastly a more optimized title Peaceful & Private 2BR Apartment Near Lakebottom Park
And a question, you state "no stovetop" but there is one in the pictures.
I hope this helps.
Thank you. Do they look nice enough or do you think I need to have them professionally edited?
