About Overnight Atlas

Overnight Atlas is a guide to independent short-term rentals in the United States and Canada: cabins, homes, lake houses, treehouses, glamping, and domes. Stays are organized by country, state or province, and region, so you can learn a place before you choose a property.

What a listing is

A listing states facts about a stay, such as its location, how many people it sleeps, and its amenities. Listings carry no opinions or ratings. Being listed is different from appearing on a Best Of list, which has a higher bar.

Booking directly

Many independent hosts take bookings on their own websites, which can avoid the service fees booking sites charge. Prices and policies vary by host, so compare before you book.

Who writes here

Most of our contributors write under pen names. Their pages say what each one covers. Any stay described in the first person is a stay that really happened.

Hosts

If your property is listed, you can claim your listing to add photos and activate your website link, or request removal. A listing is free. Not listed yet? Apply to list your rentals.

Who publishes Overnight Atlas

Overnight Atlas is published by NAFSOB, which also sells website and search marketing services to vacation rental hosts. Buying those services has no effect on whether a stay is listed or where it appears on a list.
