How Evergreen Dorrington Enhances Guest Experience with TIDY Vacation Rental Management
About the Client
🏢 Company: Evergreen Dorrington Chalet and Cottage
🏡 Industry: Vacation Rental Property Management
📍 Location: Dorrington, California (Near Arnold)
🛠️ PMS Software: OwnerRez
🎯 Key Challenge: Streamlining operations for family-owned vacation rentals while maintaining exceptional guest experiences
Bobby Vaughn, Co-owner and manager of Evergreen Dorrington, oversees two charming vacation cabins in the Sierra Nevada mountains. Their properties—the Evergreen Dorrington Chalet (sleeps 11) and Pinecone Cottage (sleeps 6)—offer family-friendly, pet-welcoming accommodations with unique amenities like game rooms and hot tubs. Located near popular destinations such as Calaveras Big Trees State Park and Bear Valley Ski Resort, these cabins serve as perfect basecamps for all-season adventures.
As owner-operators who prioritize guest experience, they needed a solution that could:
✔️ Integrate seamlessly with OwnerRez PMS for streamlined booking management
✔️ Maintain consistent cleaning standards across multiple properties
✔️ Simplify coordination with local cleaning providers
✔️ Enable property-specific checklists to ensure unique amenities receive proper attention
"I really appreciated the seamless integration with my PMS, OwnerRez, which made managing operations much easier. The personalized support through their concierge model was incredible—it felt like they truly understood my business needs."
The Challenge: Managing Vacation Rentals in a Remote Mountain Location
As a family-owned vacation rental business in a mountain community, Evergreen Dorrington faced several operational challenges:
❌ Remote Property Management – Coordinating cleaning and maintenance for properties in a mountain community presented logistical challenges.
❌ Unique Property Features – Each cabin has distinct amenities (game room, hot tub) requiring specialized attention during turnovers.
❌ Seasonal Demands – Managing varying cleaning needs based on seasonal tourism patterns (winter skiing vs. summer hiking).
❌ High Guest Expectations – Maintaining exceptional cleanliness standards for family and pet-friendly accommodations.
"I also liked the design of the checklists; they were intuitive and well-thought-out. I'd recommend TIDY, especially for those in a market with lots of cleaners already using the platform or for businesses with employees they can onboard from the start."
The Solution: TIDY's Integrated Platform for Vacation Rental Excellence
After exploring different options, Evergreen Dorrington found that TIDY offered the comprehensive solution they needed to enhance operations.
✅ Seamless OwnerRez Integration – Direct connection with their existing PMS created automatic scheduling based on bookings.
✅ Custom Property Checklists – Tailored cleaning protocols for each cabin's unique features like the game room and hot tub.

✅ Quality Verification – Photo documentation ensured consistent cleaning standards were maintained for every guest.
✅ Scalable System – Platform designed to grow with their business as they potentially expand their property portfolio.
"There's a bit of a learning curve, but it's well worth it once you get going."
