In our first episode, Marc sits down with Jenika Newsum, the designer behind Black Bear Cabin in the Poconos.

Jenika shares how she went from an empty piece of land to a fully furnished, guest-ready home, and the lessons she learned along the way.

They dive into what actually holds up in a rental, where to invest vs. save, and the items hosts end up replacing more often than expected.

From real leather couches to jute rugs and go-to linens, this episode is full of practical insights for anyone designing a short-term rental.
