New to hosting!

Hi, can anyone tell me if I need to be on our cottage rental property to meet our guests? Or can I leave a code/key for them? I’m new to hosting!!

Hello @Stella132. It's up to you. But it's often better if a host meets their guests in person. Also, it's good to keep an eye on the property.
