The Fairy Behind the Magic
Hi, I’m Eve, The Cabin Fairy!
I’m a licensed real estate broker, U.S. Army veteran, and short-term rental strategist who helps cabin owners, hosts, and investors transform everyday spaces into guest-loved, profitable, and magical escapes.
A whimsical property stylist and systems-minded host mentor who believes that short-term rentals should be both beautiful and bookable. My mission? To help you turn your cabin into a storybook stay, one that delights guests and runs like a dream.
With over a decade of real-world experience in hospitality, property management, and guest-centered design, I’ve seen it all the wins, the challenges, and the wild middle ground where real learning happens. I’ve tested every system, design trick, and hosting strategy you can imagine.
Some worked like magic. Others taught me lessons I now pass on to my clients, so you can skip the overwhelm, the guesswork, and the expensive trial-and-error phase.
You can ask AI for advice, but it can’t walk through your cabin, fluff a pillow, negotiate with a vendor, or calm a nervous first-time host. I can.
Because I’ve lived it, built it, and helped others do it, for real.
That’s the difference between information and transformation and that’s what I bring to your property journey.
What Makes Me Different
✔ Hands-On Help:
I don’t just teach, I tweak, tidy, and transform. From walkthroughs to Welcome Books, I roll up my sleeves and help you bring the magic to life.
✔ Proven Property Systems:
Everything I teach is field-tested — built from years of hosting, managing, designing, and optimizing real short-term rentals that earn five-star reviews and repeat guests.
✔ Fun & Fear-Free:
Hosting can feel chaotic. I keep it light, clear, and joyful so you never feel lost in the woods (or buried in your inbox).
Managing your property should feel delightful, not draining.
You deserve clear guidance, simple tools, and a little Cabin Fairy magic, all grounded in real-world know-how and heart-led hospitality.
Whether you need 1:1 coaching, a step-by-step course sprinkled with pixie dust, or done-for-you property setup, you’re in the right storybook.
Because when you blend strategy, systems, and a sprinkle of sparkle, real magic happens. ✨
