“Our workshops this past year were in high demand, and we’re excited to offer this series throughout Tennessee in different communities that have been noted for growth in the accommodations sector. We’ve conducted preliminary research, and both counties have a thriving short-term rental market due to their proximity to outdoor opportunities and urban landscapes,” Northeast Tennessee Tourism Association Executive Director Alicia Phelps said.
“We are thrilled to announce the upcoming short-term rental workshop in partnership with the Tennessee Department of Tourism Development. This event is a significant opportunity for local property owners and aspiring vacation rental operators to gain invaluable insights and expertise from industry leaders,” said Lori Nunnery, CEO of Visit Jackson TN. “Our goal is to empower the community by providing the knowledge and resources needed to excel in the growing vacation rental market.
