VRHP Joins with VRM Intel for Fall Education in Gatlinburg, November 6-8

VRHP Joins with VRM Intel for Fall Education in Gatlinburg, November 6-8

The Vacation Rental Housekeeping Professionals Annual Conference and VRM Intel Live! are joining together in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, November 6-8, to host a special vacation rental community event focused on the needs of professional vacation rental providers. With an educational lineup that includes industry leaders, management professionals, and property care and operations experts, this conference is set apart by its emphasis on the hands-on management and marketing of vacation rentals.

The two organizations chose Gatlinburg as their venue to show support for the area one year after the fires that decreased vacation rental inventory by over 15 percent. As the vacation rental industry knows all too well, perception is often the most challenging barrier to attracting tourism after a disastrous event, and VRHP and VRM Intel wanted to highlight that Gatlinburg is open for business and continues to be a premier destination for year-round mountain travel.

“We have worked hard to combine this year’s best education with truly special networking events to revive the idea of a conference created solely for vacation rental managers,” said Amy Hinote, founder of VRM Intel. “The content is laser focused on the needs of property managers without the overwhelming influence of OTAs we see at other conferences. Plus, we have planned unique social events designed to bring together attendees in a fun and lasting way. Gatlinburg is one of the largest vacation rental destinations in the United States, and our events are designed to spotlight its uniqueness.”

Registration is $399 and includes attendance to the reception on Monday, breakfast, lunch and all sessions on Tuesday and Wednesday, and the Bluegrass Hoedown Dinner on Tuesday Night at Ober Gatlinburg. Immediately following the sessions on Wednesday, attendees are gathering for the Gatlinburg Winter Magic Kickoff, just steps from the Convention Center, for a downtown celebration and the ceremonial lighting of more than 3 million lights throughout the city.

 

Schedule

  • Monday, November 6, 6:00 pm, Welcome Reception, Gatlinburg Convention Center
  • Tuesday, November 7, 8:00 am – 5:00 pm, General and Breakout Sessions (Including Breakfast and Lunch), Gatlinburg Convention Center

  • Wednesday, November 8, 8:00 am – 4:00 pm, General and Breakout Sessions (Including Breakfast and Lunch), Gatlinburg Convention Center
