Hi @John7768!
Thanks for the tag @Paula!
You have great reviews and a nice space! I agree with the others that professional photos or at least photos taken with good lighting, wide angle (for some shots), sunny days or twilight may enhance your listing’s appeal. Here are a few suggestions:
1. pic 17 & 18 appear to be the same pic of the bathroom.
2. pic 23 and 24 are the same, keep 24, it doesn’t show the car on the street, has some grass in the foreground and shows the trees and yard well.
3. You may want to retake the pic of the bench and umbrella/grill on a sunny dry day. You want to out your best foot forward with pics and let people envision themselves here sunny, BBQing with family/friends. So pull the cover off the grill, open the umbrella, maybe have some colorful plates or napkins or iced tea drinks on the table when you take this pic.
4. You may want a pop of color with a colorful lounge chair in the pic of the yard and graveled area behind the house.
5. Maybe a twilight photo with the fire pit on would be a nice touch.
6. The purple bed spread while you may like it personally, is not a typical bed spread people may like. Neutrals, or lighter colors are better for bedding in the bedrooms.
7. Consider buying some decorative 26x26” pillows and covers (online has great prices) and have 4 regular pillows on the bed, in addition to the decorative larger pillows. People love pillows to prop themselves up to watch tv, lounge, sleep (some people use them as a knee support or body pillow). It also makes the bed more inviting.
8. Writing the actual destinations and distance and drive/bike/walk time is helpful for visitors who don’t know the area.
Nearest beach: x miles or x minute walk.
Nearest grocery store: x miles or x minute walk/drive.
Nearest restaurants (name the restaurant): x miles or x min walk or drive.
Nearest park: x miles or x min drive.
Other attraction: x miles or x min drive.
9. Consider including some pics of the beach at sunrise or sunset in your listing.
10. Some people will put flowers in their kitchen pic or have a picture of some nature scene on their TV in their pic listing (it looks nicer than a blank tv screen).
11. Do you have streaming services available? Offer coffee/tea complimentary? You can include this in your initial description. Look at other similar listings to yours to see how they present their listing in writing or photos (do a search as a guest in your area, or look in the app, insights, booking rate and scroll to the bottom to similar listings; you can also go to your calendar in the app and click on some dates to see booked and unbooked listings during that time frame to see how you are priced and your amenities versus your competitors amenities). See if they have amenities you can add to your listing or how you are different/unique from them.
Hope this helps some and tag me/message me directly if you have any questions about my suggestions.
