Exclusive offer for CHS members: 10% off any product on the Harney & Sons website. Also, Harney & Sons will donate 5% of your sale to a Cornell Scholarship.
HouseTrip.com If you own a vacation rental, you can rent it out through www.housetrip.com. HouseTrip is a very different way for holiday rental owners to advertise their properties. They’re not a managing agent, an online travel agency, or a classified listing website. They simply connect people who want to book holiday apartments, villas and cottages with the people who own or manage them, providing both parties with a safe and easy-to-use platform to conduct mutually beneficial transactions. The usual commission they take on bookings around 10%, but they reduce it to 5% for CHS members. New York rentals can be found at: www.housetrip.com/en/new-york-city
